I invite everyone to our Discord channel to discuss our project! https://discord.gg/dtdRKrjU

Honestly, people need to start making awesome things in worlds so the land barrons start realizing they need to do something besides exist if they want to monetize DCL off the hard work of others. You put this in a Worlds I am sure you will find users happy to play it. Decentraland is more than Genesis City.

Dark Dungeons game This proposal is now in status: REJECTED. Voting Results: * Yes 40% 4,581,279 VP (82 votes) * No 60% 6,823,418 VP (98 votes)

I think this is a good topic for discussion. I would like to know the opinion of other members of the community. If this decision is positively received by the community, I think we will implement it and figure out where to distribute the money that was calculated for the lease of the LAND 🙂

That is my perspective yes. If worlds existed when I started my project that's where I would have started as well. It provides a much more affordable option for deployment without the risk of thousands of dollars. Great proof of concept grounds.

Did I understand correctly that you think we need to deploy the project only in Dcs World and not use LANDs at all?

Hey there, if you have a DCL NAME then you don't have to worry about "how many LANDs" because you can deploy to as many parcels as you want. The only limit to Worlds right now is 100 concurrent users and 100MB capacity. However, there are services that Atlas Corp can provide to increase these capacities at a very affordable rate. I would suggest reading the documentation provided on Worlds to get a better understanding: https://docs.decentraland.org/creator/worlds/contributor/worlds/about/

Hi esteban! 🙂 Thank you for arguing your decision. My answer turned out to be voluminous, but I will be glad if you read it carefully. I ask you to take a closer look at our offer. You can see that we have been striving for this grant for a very long time. The first offer was made in the summer of 2022. Since then, the offer has undergone many changes. Go to our Discord, there you can learn more about the process of working on the demo version. We finished working on the demo on time, and then waited until March 1 to submit a new application. The preparatory work was done with my personal money. Working on the demo version did not bring us the expected profit (for more information, see Discord). All employees received less than expected, personally I spent more money than I earned. I am writing all this in order for all members of the community to understand that the team and I are really inspired by our project and are investing in it the maximum of our capabilities. Many members of the community also speak very positively about our project. Our first grants didn't get the right amount of VP. We have come a long way to submit the current application. I think that in this particular case, your decision to equalize the number of votes is not the best solution. I once again ask you to familiarize yourself in more detail with our project and with the path that we have passed. It will be difficult for us to postpone development again. 🙁

Hi Nikki 🙂 Try to wait a little longer, the web page does not open quickly. How many LANDs do you think is enough?

Dear proposers of this initiative, I voted NO on this to offset the other whale voting YES. I have not evaluated the merits of the proposal, but could you please re-submit it this proposal again? Thank you and have a good day!

Hey Soulsinger. The demo link did not work for me, however, I trust others who said they tested it and enjoyed it. I also agree with the room that DCL Worlds is absolutely the way to go for projects like these. Especially if you are not receiving more than 100 concurrent users. Even if you are, there are **far** more affordable options to tailor a world's server to handle more than 100 concurrent users. Seems like a waste of $2k to rent when you can have unlimited land for free/cost of a NAME. $2k can go a long way in a lot of the other areas. Much further than LAND renting. I also worry that there was mention of heavy UI mechanics. Has your team familiarized themselves with SDK7? It will be much easier to develop UI mechanics with SDK7 rather than SDK6. Here is the blog post about SDK7: https://decentraland.org/blog/announcements/announcing-sdk-7-beta It is in beta so anyone can tinker and learn the new systems. :+1:

We're really going to use Dsl Worlds for stories. But a good hub is also important to us. A 1x1 land plot will obviously not be enough. We could consider reducing the size of the land plot to 2x2 and thereby save ~ $600. The question is whether it's worth it. :thinking: In any case, we are ready for suggestions and are glad that you are actively participating in the discussion. Together we are a force. :fist:

the space for DCL worlds is much bigger. I would agree with AJ this is a good route to take

Hi AwedJob, thank you for the question. :slightly_smiling_face: We need a space where we could place portals to different stories, boards with information, a store of wearable devices. We need lands not only for a large area, but also to increase the limits of the scene.

Vote: YES Very nice demo game. I appreciate your persistence in completing what you could with the resources you had considering the $MANA value crash. Regarding land rental, have you considered deploying to a 1x1 and teleporting to a DCL Worlds? This may reduce that expense considerably. Respect Dax's and dogman's comments and questions.

just want to add my two cents here since i worked on the demo - i think the idea of this proposal is solid and since i worked with the team on the demo, i can also endorse @Soulsinger and their team as being professional and above all passionate about making games. I'm not joining this round as the SDK dev simply from an overload of work, but I would love to see this get made. Personally though, I think it also has a lot of value as an opensource toolkit, maybe not exactly in the style of the tower defense kit, but in the sense that libraries of character avatars and examples of building a TTRPG clone could be super helpful for anyone else doing this in the future.

Thanks for the reply! I understand building a game is a difficult task and it seems like the quality is high just wish there was more to see! Will be voting yes to support this game.

Hi dogman! :slightly_smiling_face: I understand what you mean. Follow the link on Discord, where you can learn more about the work progress. While there, you can also see we received almost half as much money as we expected due to the MANA exchange rate. Troubles happen, and sometimes there's nothing you can do about it. 5000 is not a lot of money, considering that 7 people worked on the project for 3 months. But we received half a much - this could not but affect the quality. This grant will not be in MANA but in DAI currency. Hence, the budget won't get halved by the work's end. You can look at an example of our work that cost 2500. Imagine what we can do with 54,000. What do you think about it? We will be glad to hear your opinion/advice. :thinking:

hello. I like the demo and can see a fair amount of work has been put into this project already. I would like to see more from this demo before voting yes as right now it is just some simple Ui interactions and loading an additional scene. In its current form it is a little difficult to image what actual gameplay would be like.
