@nyanheroes, whom we have talked about before and made everyone 0 points, is going to TGE on May 21st.

This means that friends who have scored points will get airdrops.

Now let me briefly talk to you about this project and my personal views on this game.

Let's dive in together⬇️

1/ Game introduction and background

Nyan Heroes is a third-person FPS shooting game where players can control Nyan and the mecha piloted by him Fight with opponents. The game uses Unreal 5 engine.

$NYAN is led by Mechanism Capital, with participation from AK and Solana Ventures, and Solana’s official account has also been transferred. Judging from the quality of its games and the number of downloads, Nyan can be regarded as a booster for the scarce Solana game ecosystem (Nyan also has some cooperation with G2 and Team Liquid). After TGE, $NYAN will be listed on Bybit and Backpack.

Although $NYAN did not win the second vote of Jupiter LFG, its game quality and background are not bad, and it is worth paying attention to.

2/ Game play experience

Nyan is now available on Epic.

In order to get more accurate feedback on the game experience, I interviewed several group friends. The following are some of my personal summaries.

Overall, the game UI/UX is similar to traditional shooting games (still a bit rough, but the game graphics are okay). For players who have played shooting games before, especially Overwatch, it will be It’s not difficult to get started. It is the same as Overwatch in that it is a mode of small skills + ultimate moves, and the character characteristics are also similar.

As mentioned above, the core gameplay of the game is "players control Nyan and the mecha he drives to fight against opponents." This means that when the mecha dies, the player can also control Nyan to fight. When the conditions for resurrecting the mecha are met, the player can re-summon the mecha to fight (similar to DVA in Overwatch).

The difference from Overwatch is that the guns in the game are optional, and the same character (with the character's own skills) can use different weapons. Players can choose weapons suitable for their character's skills based on their own habits and experience. In this way, the game will be more playable and strategic.

However, there are many points that need to be improved in the game, such as balance, UI/UX optimization, more detailed descriptions of characters and firearms, incomplete maps, and in-game operations that are not smooth enough, etc. wait. These problems are not big problems. The game is currently in the EA (testing) stage, and several versions of updates and optimizations can solve these problems. The full version of the game will be released before early next year.

3/ Game data

According to Block reports, after being launched on the Epic Store, 200K players downloaded the game Nyan, and the game also ranked among the top 30 most-played games on the Epic Store.

4/ Token Economics (the total amount should be 1B)

50% of the tokens will be used for Community/Incentives and Ecosystem.

3% will be given to the market maker and Liquidity.

47% will be given to investors, consultants and teams.

Game Utility⬇️

• Activate Web3 mode to get more rewards
• Purchase premium items and skins at Trade rare items and skins on the market
• Earn fee income by leasing assets
• Enrollment fees for tournaments
• And more

In addition in the white paper As mentioned, players may be able to lock $NYAN to gain special access and rewards.

You can see from this picture what Nyan wants to do:

1. Distinguish between Web2 and Web3 players through the virtual token CATNIP in the game , Web2 players can play games without touching Token/NFT.

2. Give rewards and incentives to active players based on their actual contributions (free and paid).

3. In addition to season rewards, players have multiple sources of income (market transactions).

4. The team can make money from players who are active in the game, which is also the motivation for them to make good games.

Overall, the fundamentals of this game are pretty good among Web3 games, and the online CEX is also the Top CEX besides Binance and OKX (refer to $MAVIA). The coins listed on Backpack also performed well at the beginning, and I will consider buying them after the market opens. The specific airdrop rules are not yet clear, we will talk about it when the time comes.

Additional sentence: $NYAN will be the core of the entire game ecosystem. Basically, everything related to Web3 uses $NYAN as a medium. The game team comes from game production teams such as Destiny, Halo, Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed, and Fortnite. Game studios can also get involved. What I value more is whether Nyan can have the opportunity to attract more Web2 players.

Compare the valuations of other games:

Pixels Online 1.7B

Mavia 841M

Illuvium 795M

Shrapnel 297M

I think the valuation of games on Solana may be a bit more expensive, and Nyan’s fundamentals are good. Maybe the valuation of 300M-500M may be a good buying range? I guess. NFA
