Token Tanks - Blockchain-Based Play to Earn Game

 

Overview

GameFi is one of the hottest new trends to emerge from the crypto industry, combining decentralized finance (DeFi) and non-fungible tokens (NFTs) with blockchain-based online games. Unlike many traditional online games, which operate on a “pay-to-win” model and allow players to purchase upgrades in order to gain an advantage over others, GameFi introduces a “play-to-earn” model. This concept involves giving players financial incentives to play and progress through games. In some cases, this has allowed gamers to earn a full-time income by doing so.

All objects in these types of games are expressed as NFTs – digital tokens used to prove ownership of scarce intangible items. Think of things like plots of land, avatars, costumes, weapons, and gold bars. Once players find and accrue these items through gameplay, many have the option to trade these with others in digital marketplaces for different NFTs or sell them in exchange for cryptocurrency.

For players looking to get involved in these blockchain-based games and start earning cryptocurrency and NFTs, here is another potential project is Token Tanks

1. Tank

Tanks are on-chain digital assets, players can collect, arm and battle. Tanks are equipped with specific traits that determine their aesthetics and attack mechanics, the physical appearance of Tanks does not play a role in gameplay performance. Tank Flags determine the weapon packs equipped, these contain specific ammunition types to determine attack style, power, and blast radius, which helps players strategize different attack mechanics to defeat their opponents.

1. Weapon Packs

There are five different weapon pack classes each with five class-specific pre-determined artillery systems.

Power Pack - An all-American firepower weapon pack that is guaranteed to arm your tank with state-of-the-art human ammunition to destroy any opponent.

Energy Pack - Energy-based weaponry that harnesses the power of lasers, beams, and lightning strikes that will electrify and shock your foe.

Plasma Pack - An arsenal of superheated matter so hot that electrons are ripped away from the atoms forming deadly ionized artillery.

Nuclear Pack - Chemical weapon pack of unparalleled destructive power, with lethal fusion blasts, shock waves, and radioactive fallout.

Quantum Pack - Mystical weaponization of hyperspatial and sub-atomic particles with fatal forces that will subdue any adversary.

1. Battles

The tank battle system is a turn-based artillery game where the goal is to score as many attack points on your opponent. Each turn a player must strategically select the barrel aiming angle, power, and fire to maximize the score of inflicted damage to their opponent.

1. Armory

The armory is the military base where tanks are stored, weapon packs are bought, ammo is reloaded and new tanks are built.

Token Tanks Tokeneconomics

Token Tanks is a tactical artillery game that rewards its players for the time spent playing and growing the ecosystem. All game assets and resources are tokenized, meaning players are able to monetize from item sales on p2p markets.

AMMO

Short for ammunition, before deploying your tank for battle you will need Ammo for your weapons. Battles are turn-based, consisting of a ten-round shoot-out between opponents, prior to each battle tankers will require 10 rounds of Ammo to access the battlefield and engage in combat. You need Ammo to earn SHELL on the battlefield.

Both Tanks and AMMO are stored in the Armory, each Tank has a maximum capacity of Ammo storage of 200 rounds, reloaded at a rate of 50 Ammo every 6 hours. This is important because without ammo Tanks cannot participate in battles.

SHELL

Token Tank Shells (SHELL) are an ERC-20 token and in-game currency of the Token Tanks game.

Usage of SHELL Tokens

. SHELL holders will be able to claim rewards, build new tanks
. SHELL holders can participate in key governance votes regarding Token Tank’s future direction
. n-game, players will acquire SHELL through combat victories, they will be recouped and rewarded from ammo projectiles fired during battles.
. The number of SHELL players can earn from defeating opponents in battle will depend on the tank’s military rank, a higher rank yields more SHELL from victories.

How does it work?

Tanks are built using in-game resources, both $SHELL and tank blueprints are required.

Each tank has a unique blueprint that determines the tank’s Track, Side Skirt, Body, Hatch, Barrel, Muzzle, and Class.

The tank’s flags determine the vehicle’s class which specifies the weapon packs equipped.

Building a new tank requires two unique blueprints and SHELL, the amount of SHELL depends on the number of times the blueprints have been used.

When building new tanks, players can select two weapon packs from the available options in the blueprints to arm their vehicles, this will guarantee that tanks are built with complementing weaponry that enhances battle performance.

To maintain a sustainable army growth and prevent hyperinflation of Tanks there is a maximum amount of times blueprints can be used to build more Tanks.

Roadmap

Conclusion

The emergence of GameFi comes from a combination of factors that dates back to 2017 and the emergence of the NFT phenomenon CryptoKitties. The digital collectibles economy proved a viral success, with CryptoKitties amassing over 14,914 users a day at its peak. Token Tank’s Army growth management relies on community involvement, it is important to note that a sustainable Token Tank ecosystem is driven by demand for Tanks, which is ultimately what also drives demand for $SHELL. The team will be actively looking to increase community involvement in order to enrich gaming dynamics and add value and purpose to Tank ownership.
