DEAR, a fully on-chain game incubated by ARPA Network, is set to launch its third round
on B3, a horizontally scaled gaming ecosystem built on
Base. This expansion marks another significant phase in DEAR’s
journey as it continues to push the limitations of gaming through
the creative use of blockchain technology. DEAR challenges players
to nurture, influence, and ultimately shape the life of a digital
entity through interactions by transactions.
DEAR’s move to B3 leverages the platform’s robust capabilities
to provide a frictionless environment for blockchain gaming. Built
on the solid foundation of Base, B3 simplifies complex blockchain
infrastructure management, allowing developers to concentrate on
enhancing gameplay. This enables DEAR to deliver a richer, more
immersive experience without the usual technical hurdles associated
with blockchain gaming.
DEAR’s gameplay is profoundly social and interactive, relying on
collective player decisions to drive the narrative forward.
Therefore, B3’s architecture, designed to support high transaction
volumes without compromising speed or cost, is ideal for the
intricate interactions within DEAR. The platform ensures that
players can enjoy continuous gameplay with minimal disruptions, a
crucial feature for maintaining engagement in an on-chain
environment. Additionally, B3’s streamlined onboarding process and
integrated game discovery hub facilitate easy access for newcomers
and seasoned gamers to explore new challenges.
Felix Xu, CEO of ARPA, shares his insights on the
project: “DEAR is more than just a game; it’s a social experiment
and a piece of interactive art. The game’s mechanics, crafted
directly from blockchain capabilities, explore the composability
and extensibility of smart contracts as well as the intricate
relationships between individuals in the blockchain ecosystem.
Features like collaborative competition, a finite lifespan, and
mechanisms for double-spending and infectious tokens highlight the
innovative blend of virtual pet simulation, abstract art, and
blockchain technology.”
Viktoriya Hying, co-founder of NPC Labs and core
contributor to B3, added: “B3 aims to make fun, sticky games easily
discoverable and accessible to players on Basement.fun. DEAR will
be the very first fully on-chain game on B3 players and we’re
particularly excited about the unique mechanics and stunning art
created by ARPA that make it a truly unique
experience.”
