Hey guys. I want to give you a little glimpse of a new project coming out of Hive-Engine: FarmFarmer. Goal is to create a simple game using our modular Smart Contracts. It's coming along nicely. I think it'll be ready in November. No, the website isn't even live yet, but should be available soon.
This game is centered around yield farming. Each of the NFTs in the photo above will sell at different prices, they'll be available in different quantities, and they'll farm $FARM tokens at different rates. They'll start at the same rate, but over time they'll diverge as players influence their rates.
By owning the NFTs and staking them (technically delegating to the game account) you can earn $FARM. If you stake $FARM you'll receive $FARMGOV. By burning $FARMGOV you'll be able to alter the rate at which any group of NFTs are able to mine.
So, in-game action is simple and idle. Buy, Stake, Earn and Burn to Change.
But the real game play is in the social side. You'll likely need to form teams and alliances to protect the rate at which your miners mine while reducing the speed of miners that you and your friends don't hold.
That's it. That's the whole game.
Oh, and while this game is being kept intentionally super simple it's worth pointing out that the future games will be more complex as new smart contracts are developed for use.
$FARM tokens earned through this game will be accepted for value in the future games that Hive-Engine creates (there may be exceptions if partners are involved). I'm planning on issuing 40,000 $FARM/yr. We'll accept them for value with at least a $1.00/$FARM rate in the future when buying stuff for our other games.
Money raised by this project will be used to fund future development of this game, ongoing decetralization efforts of Hive-Engine, new business logic smart contracts for Hive-Engine (to build more games), and help promote the fact that without using any code and just configuring a few off the shelf smart contracts while modifying a simple front end (all for about a thousand dollars) that we were able to build a game here. Let that sink in....
Oh, and yeah, we'll be accepting fiat for these when they're first sold. They'll trade on the secondary market for crypto as swap.hive initially and we'll either add an option to trade for $FARM or switch to it completely.
Hope you dig it, hope you pick up some NFTs, and hope you start finding some friends to play with. I'll have another update soon for when we actually release the cards for sale.
Can I pay with HBD?
@aggroed, In my opinion Hive is the space for Experimentation and Gamification. Stay blessed.
That's cool, I like the simplistic nature of it but it's effective. No need to make things unbelievably complex sometimes!
Woot :)
Love the art style! Sounds super interesting. Been enjoying @dcitygame so this is right up my alley.
Great read. I can't wait to get into this game. I do have one question though. I have not been able to find an answer to what in the world swap.hive is, how to get it and where all it can be used.
hive-engine.com
Hive is not programmable money. So, in order to use it as programmable money you have to get it onto the smart contract platform. So, you send Hive and you receive 1 swap.hive. When you're done you can return your swap.hive and get back your Hive. Hive-engine.com is the smart contract platform and you use the deposit/withdrawal buttons to move it on and off the platform.
Swap.Hive can be used for trustless transactions because the program can force it to go through. Otherwise one person has to send one thing and the other sends the other thing afterwards, which takes trust. Here you're trusting Hive-Engine, a business, to not steal the Hive you have on deposit there.

Am I the only one that cant login into hive-engine????
You can use your keys to login there. It better in stall hive-keychain extension. It will help you logging in in most of hive dapps with copy pasting keys.
A very interesting idea. I like what is rolling out.
What can be done elsewhere can be done on Hive.
Neat premise, I'm interested in seeing how this works when it goes live.
Farming gives it that safe feeling. Nice branding.
That sounds like a nice idea, looking forward to it :)

Do these smart contracts exist on Hive-engine?

ooh interesting. Excited to see how these smart contracts will work. Look forward to giving it a try and maybe forming a Rising Star team!
@aggroed , who is your business partner/programmer in this? Cool concept and excited to see what it ends up looking like. Just don't spread yourself too thin!
This is great! I am very interested in this project. Keep up the awesome work @aggroed !!
