Many blockchain games these days are unappealing and have a lack of depth as gameplay along with an unsustainable reward economy.
Alonia aims to provide a game with:
This is the total amount allocated to The next generation Tower Defense G.
This could include info about how the project will align with Challenge KPIs?
How will the outcomes of your project be communicated or marketed once completed?
Community building: Building a sizable community following is an integral and significant process for any NFT gamefi project. Alonia aims to hit at least 50000 organic followers in the next two months. Without vested interest in the game, any game will not thrive. Our goal is to build a healthy and supportive community that believes in our vision of Alonia.
Phase 1 of Alonia:
Alonia Main PVP game
Reward System
We will be implementing a play-to-earn model that is unlike any NFT game out there; where the utility of their reward token is very limited and constraint to merely the production of more NFT. Our P2E model is sustainable due to the fact that we have an abundance of utility for our reward token $SPIZE:
Create-to-Earn Co-op Game mode
This mode will be a Co-op mode where players can team up together to clear waves of monsters in a Tower defense format. Strategize and form a team to defend your Energy ORB.
In the Alonia Metaverse, we will be distributing scarce Lands as NFT. We aim to allow players to have ownership over the Alonia Universe. They will be able to contribute to the economy by providing another avenue of income for the player base of Alonia. This mode will further contribute to the utility of $SPIZE where players will be required to use $SPIZE to participate in this game mode.
Development and Integration into Cardano
One of the biggest risks is the ability to develop and launch on the Cardano network and we can see there are limited projects launched on the network at the moment. From our knowledge, integrating a game together with the blockchain has not been done before to the level that we see on other more mature chains. This might equate to a longer development period and is also dependent on the progress of development on Cardano to make it “project ready” - hence this poses a risk to our launch strategy.
Nevertheless, our team remains optimistic on the ability of the Cardano team to solve certain issues which will allow us to launch our game on the blockchain, especially considering the progress that has been made in the recent months. We also have a step by step approach when it comes to the game integration by launching a Mini Game first by mid 2022 which only requires a NFT push & pull integration to players wallet, so this will be a good test study for the Cardano chain integration to the plan that we have for this game. Following this we can assess the possibility to continue our development of the main game which will require complete integration of Governance and Reward token and more complicated smart contracts. The back up plan is to migrate to another chain at this stage, should there be massive headwinds in the Cardano development.
Oversupply of Gamefi projects in the market
There are many Game projects launching now which will pose a risk in terms of fighting for market share of players. However, we notice that many game projects now are mostly focused on marketing, with no actual game product when they go public. The key question here is how to differentiate ourselves in the market and create interest in our project.
Our strategy is to be product oriented, and release concrete developments and deliverables to the public in quick succession which will build up our reputation in the scene. Soon after we go public, we will be offering a unique NFT staking mechanism which ties in with our mini game by the middle of 2022.
Furthermore, being one of the first game projects on Cardano will allow us to tap on a somewhat untapped market, with most ADA holders just staking at the moment and starving for utility.
Lastly, this ties in with our unique proposition for our product: we want to release a robust game which has competitive depth: something that players will enjoy playing even without the play to earn (P2E) element involved. This will set us apart from the other games in the market right now which we view as repetitive and a mere excuse for people to make money. Of course, the P2E will be an added bonus to reward players who excel at the game.
We split the project into 2 Phases. Phase 1 which will take place in Q2-Q3 2022 and the main deliverables as follows:
Phase 2 Deliverables(expected to take place Q3 2022-Q2023:
We forecast a spend of about $USD 300,000 for Phase 1, breakdown as below:-
Legal & Admin
3.26%
Token Generation(Smart Contracts)
1.30%
NFT minting
2.61%
NFT-Mini Game integration solution

PVP Game Demo(prototype)
6.52%
Game Trailer
2.61%
Mini Game
26.08%
Marketing
13.04%
Wages
9.39%
Following Phase 1, we will plan to raise money via NFT sale, Private Sale and Public sales to fund our development for Phase 2.
The Spend for Phase 2 Development works will cost in the range of $USD1-2mil, the bulk of it going to the development of the main game.

We are looking to constantly grow our development and community team throughout phase 1 of our lifecycle.
Phase 1:
As we have split our development into bite size chunks, we can easily measure the progress and development of the deliverables in Phase 1. As earlier mentioned a key focus would be the integration of the Mini Game to the Cardano chain.
Other key indicators would be the NFT sales, private sale and public sale in terms of fund raised, as well as daily active users in our staking pool and mini game.
Phase 2:
Success of phase 2 would be the number of open beta
Success would be a seamless integration of the Cardano blockchain into our mini game and main game, as well as having a healthy size of players (10,000 - 15,000 daily active users) in our ecosystem.
In the short term, success for Phase 1 will be determined by the amount of funds raised to be able to continue our development journey.
Success of Phase two will be determined by a few key metrics:
This is a new project.
