DEPARTMENT STORE & LOOTBOX
Lootbox V1
For all those waiting on rewards we are planning on getting them all before the launch of our department store so that when it launches, it's a clean slate for lootboxes & orders. Due to the manual nature of lootbox V1 we are creating a smooth process (department store). We will make an announcement when every reward has been shipped out. Thank you!
Department Store
The department store is powered by Shopify and we are currently in the process of trying to implement Shopify's new Web3 service (wallet connection to order online).
What will the store have?
•Clothing
• Art
• Personalised Items
• Accessories
• Products like Poker Cards and more
LOOTBOX 2.0
These are being built on a plugin called ThirdWeb, ThirdWeb is an SDK (Software Development Kit) that has a loot pack concept as well as wallet authentication for websites.
What is a loot pack?
• Like a pack of cards, the pack contains N items.
• These items can then be randomly distributed amongst X packs being distributed
• Allowing for a fair, evenly systematic distribution of goods.
• But wait, there’s more!
The items found in the loot packs are NFTs which allows us to do the following:
• Free box opening for holders
• Ability to burn the NFT for access to the physical reward
• Easy trading mechanism for residents
• Variability of rewards being distributed for each pack release
• Polygon based, with plans to have some sort of connection to our game (NFT World)
WEB PORTAL
• Lootbox distribution & claim
• Lootbox management (burn, list & trade)
• Resident Ledger (lore)
• NeckVille Passport Claim
