Project Rundown Interview with Nova Rally
Hey guys! Happy to connect today and learn more about the Nova Rally project! Could you please give us a rundown of the most important things about Nova Rally?
Nova Rally is designed to be the most acessible Play to Earn Blockchain game.
You simply pick a Car and two Rally Drivers and enter them into a race agaisnt 7 other players.
The result is calculated instantly and the winner is announced!
Now, could you tell us about your accomplishments so far, and in the history of the Nova Rally, please tell us what you are most proud of?
A new IP with no marketing and we sold $205,000 worth of NFTs. The NFT’s went up a value of 18x such was the demand for the NFTs.
Updates are streamed everyday, and the project is closer to the community than any blockchain game.
In a world of controversies and ’rug-pulls’ we offer full transparency and honesty to our userbase. We charge the lowest secondary market fees to always ensure players can actually make good margins off of trading.
Could you give us a breakdown of the play to earn features of the game?
Just by holding a Car or Character you earn Fuel hourly that you use to enter races, you can sell this fuel on the open market
When you win a race, you gain a shard pack containing a tiny piece of a character or car, you combine 5 of these to make a new Car/Driver
By winning 10 races in the beginner league, you can sacrifice 3 of the same NFT and promote to the next league to earn more rewards.
Now, give us a quick rundown of the future of the project. For example, what new things are you seeking to bring to life and what will it mean for the Nova Rally?
We want our players to come together and purchase using in game fuel, small bits of track, that could be combined together to make a large Rally course for the next season.
We want community run races with their own leagues and prizes as these communties is what keeps the player base alive and kicking.
For me I want races to be this crazy, event where players are messaging their friends saying ”Can you believe what’s just happened to me” but Season 1 is very much let’s get all this technical infrastructure in place and working smoothly for our users.
Finally, I want there to be a legacy in the game, players who win multiple Death Rally’s honored, World Championship winners immortalised onto trophy NFTs!
Could you give us a breakdown of “The Death Rally”?
Death Rally is the big risk game mode once per day everyone can enter into one massive race! If you finish in the bottom 95% your Driver NFT’s will be burned, and your car will be damaged.
The prizes for winning are a big incentive though! Valuable NFT’s that allow much easier route to promotion and an invitation to the World Championship Event at the end of the season!
Tell us about your team. Who’re the people behind the screens?
We have a team of around 12 people now, some part time and some full time.
I oversee the design of the game features and I’m the face of the game I guess, streaming updates every day.
Zyca is our Art Director, who came to me intially around doing a game with these hovering classic style cars. He handles 3d Modelling of the assets aswell as co-ordinating with the 2D artists.
Valera is our Lead Developer, he designs a lot of the smart contract logic and manages the rest of the development team. He is very experienced with blockchain devlopment and a big asset to the team.
Isaiah is another Senior Smart Contract Developer responsible for the staking, and promotion smart contracts.
Alex is another Smart contract Developer who has been focusing on the Death Rally.
We have Vladimir who is responsible for the charming UX design on our website.
Dasha is our QA hero, she does rigorous testing on all the smart contracts.
Zahar, Alexander and Danii all make up the Front End development team.
Mirko was a fantastic help with the Game Design, Tokenomics and Forecasting our Play to Earn Model, he is extremely strong with numbers and full of great ideas.
Which partnerships have you engaged so far, and which ones are the most impactful?
I try to help a lot of other projects and WAX is one big community of creators which I love. That love gets spread around and if you need promotion or advice there is always someone there to help.
We partnered with the R-Planet Community and reward them for holding their Fan Art NFTs with tokens in our own game
Also projects such as Oliveland (NFT representing real life land in Cyprus) and Dark Country(An NFT-based Collectible Card game on WAX)
We got a lot of initial exposure thanks to my friend Zueljin who is a popular content creator on Youtube and Twitch, who specialises in Blockchain Gaming.
Now on a more technical side of things, what are the coin metrics, and how do these lead to a stable and balanced system?
So just by owning and holding the NFT’s related to the game, players earn the fuel token which they need for races.
They get 10 races per day at base costs and then 20% compounding cost, meaning people who want to race more can do, but they need to pay an extra fee to balance things out.
This amount ”over-paid” past the base cost, is tracked and generates credits to take part in another game mode. We always aim to reward players who choose to play on one account and don’t try to game the system.
The Death Rally balances things out nicely by removing a lot of Common NFTs every day, on the other hand we have all the additional characters and cars being created through races being won. It’s a constant flux between days where more characters will be burned and days where it will be more crated and we carefully modelled our predicted otucomes and can’t wait to see how players react to this economic system.
