New Etheremons Released!
Its a Christmas miracle! There has been the release of Three new Etheremons, comprising the start of Gen 1. These new mons are Mintol, Omnom, and Kyari - the best thing - they're free! (Well except for the gas price of the transaction fee to interact with the Smart Contract).
These little guys will be able to transform into other forms later on, but they will require their GEN 0 ancestors in order to do so, and the GEN 0 mons are going to be scarce. This should encourage the trading mechanics which are due to launch very soon.
As soon as people overcome the fear of using things like metamask and having funny ethereum crypto-currency money in their computer, stuff like this is going to take off.
Etheremon, Crypto Kitties, and Crypto Puppies (currently in development) are just the first taste of what it is that can be done with blockchain games. These are early days, like the really old browser days where you'd build up a fleet of soldiers / spaceships / centurions / insert thing here, and fight an expansionary battle in the same vein of style as so many modern mobile games.
That's another article entirely, so here's some of the information about the Etheremons that have just been added:
As the dev's blog states there will be several more released in the next 7 days, and further to the ability to transform, there will be a relationship in battle power between having tenured, battle hardened ancestors, and the new Mons.
Trading is going to be fantastic!
Is anyone else on Steemit keen to see where this game goes in the future? Let me know in the comments!
I have two Gen 0 and a couple of these now. I am curious where it goes, I dont have any of their ancestors though.
My first trading partner in crime. :D
These are my gen 0:
Oh man so you could name them when you first caught them ? darn
I only got the 2 earth ones. One of which you have. It was showing 3 eggs earlier but I dont see that now, so hmmm.
Bottom right corner of the image. They're making new minor ui tweaks all the time.
So keen to see how this turns out!
With it acting like crypto pokemon, I would totally be keen to get some in the new year. I have thought about the kitties too but haven't got the spare cash atm due to needing my new PC first.
But I hope this one kicks off well too and becomes huge.
So If you got them early, they were almost free?
The initial Gen 0 mons weren't all that cheap - you can view my personal transaction history / interactions with the smart contract here.
I've been too busy playing Pokemon Go with the new Generation 3 hype that was released I haven't started this yet!
Buy ether now. It's going to explode with this stuff
👍👍👌👌
good
