Tamagotcha: Breed, Care, Earn – A Web3 Evolution of Virtual Pets
Abstract
Tamagotcha takes inspiration from the beloved virtual pet game Tamagotchi and transforms it into a blockchain-based Web3 experience. Players begin with a free egg, nurture it until it hatches, and receive a unique virtual pet. By caring for their pets and leveling them up, players earn In-Game Coins (IGC), which can be converted into Tama Tokens or used within the game. With engaging mechanics and robust tokenomics, Tamagotcha offers players an enjoyable and financially rewarding ecosystem.
Introduction
In the late 1990s, Tamagotchi introduced the world to virtual pets, captivating players through its simple yet engaging mechanics of care, growth, and responsibility. Tamagotcha builds on this legacy, integrating blockchain technology to create a modern breed-to-earn game that rewards effort and creativity. Players can nurture virtual pets, evolve them into higher-tier companions, and earn rewards that extend beyond the digital realm.
The Vision
Tamagotcha's wants to blend nostalgia and innovation, creating an ecosystem where players of all ages can:
Engage in immersive gameplay inspired by the classics.
Earn rewards for their time and effort.
Enjoy a balanced, community-driven economy powered by blockchain technology.
Gameplay Mechanics
Free Starter Egg
Every player begins with a free egg upon joining the game.
The free egg ensures that anyone can start playing without an upfront investment.
Egg Hatching
Eggs must be nurtured through screen tapping to hatch.
Upon hatching, players receive a random pet. Pets come in different tiers, with higher-tier pets being more rare and valuable.
Pet Tiers and Coin Generation
Pets are categorized by tiers.
Higher-tier pets generate more In-Game Coins (IGC) passively over time.
Coin generation is also influenced by the pet's level, health, and happiness.
Earn more In-Game Coins (IGC) through daily missions.
Breeding Pets
Players can breed a higher-tier pet by merging 5 identical pets.
For example: 5 Birds can be merged to create 1 Chicken.
Only max level of Bird can be used for merging, but the resulting Chicken will always start at lower level.
Breeding allows the players to improve their collection and increase earning potential.
Adding New Eggs
After hatching the free starter egg, players can purchase additional eggs using diamonds.
Diamonds are a premium in-game currency that can be acquired:
By converting Tamagotcha Tokens.
Through direct purchases.
Pet Care
Players must care for their pets to ensure optimal performance, including:
Feeding: Keep pets nourished to maintain happiness and health.
Playing: Regular playtime increases the number off In-Game Coins (IGC) and allows random drops for food and medicine
Health Checkups: Address illnesses promptly to avoid penalties.
Neglecting a pet results in:
Slower progression.
Pet doesn’t generate any In-Game Coins (IGC)
Leveling Up
Pets can level up by paying a certain amount of In-Game Coins (IGC)
Higher-level pets generate more coins and unlock special traits or abilities.
Tokenomics Public Sale The Public Sale represents the allocation of tokens distributed to everyone, allowing them to be purchased openly. The supply of tokens for the Public Sale can increase dynamically through a mechanism where users convert in-game currency into tokens. This ensures that the token supply remains flexible and adapts to the growth of the Tamagotcha ecosystem, incentivizing players to actively participate in the game. By integrating this conversion mechanism, active players have the opportunity to directly contribute to the token circulation while gaining added value from their in-game activities. The tokens generated through this conversion process are carefully managed to avoid excessive inflation, with a token burn mechanism in place to maintain economic balance within the Tamagotcha ecosystem. As a result, the Public Sale not only acts as a means to distribute tokens but also serves as a cornerstone for a strong and sustainable in-game economy.
Stacking Reward Staking Rewards are the returns earned from depositing tokens at a predetermined Annual Percentage Yield (APY). Users can make deposits with a minimum required amount and earn rewards from their staked tokens. This system provides users with a passive income opportunity while contributing to the stability and growth of the Tamagotcha ecosystem. By staking their tokens, users not only gain rewards but also play a crucial role in securing the platform and supporting its long-term sustainability. The staking process is designed to be simple and accessible, ensuring that users of all levels can participate and benefit from their contributions to the ecosystem.
Breed to Earn Breed to Earn allows users to play the Tamagotcha game and earn rewards in the form of in-game currency. This in-game currency can be converted into tokens, providing users with tangible value for their gameplay efforts.
Players can also upgrade their pets to increase their earning potential, enabling them to generate even greater rewards. When users convert their in-game currency into tokens, the resulting tokens are directly distributed into the public supply, ensuring a dynamic and growing ecosystem that benefits all participants.
This Play to Earn mechanism not only incentivizes active participation but also creates a fair and engaging environment where players are rewarded for their time and strategic gameplay.
Marketing Marketing represents the expenses allocated by the developers to promote the game and token to a broader audience. These efforts include reaching out to communities, engaging with media platforms, and organizing promotional events both online and offline.
The goal of the marketing budget is to create awareness, attract new players, and grow the Tamagotcha ecosystem. This includes strategic campaigns, influencer partnerships, social media advertisements, and participation in relevant events to ensure maximum visibility and engagement within the gaming and cryptocurrency communities.
By investing in effective marketing initiatives, Tamagotcha aims to build a strong and active player base while fostering trust and excitement around the game and its tokenomics.
Game Development and Administrative Game Development and Administration refers to the costs incurred for developing the Tamagotcha game and preparing it for public release on platforms such as Google Play Store and Apple App Store.
This budget covers all aspects of game creation, including design, programming, testing, and optimization to ensure a seamless and engaging user experience. It also includes administrative expenses necessary for licensing, compliance, and publishing the game across major app marketplaces.
These investments are crucial to delivering a high-quality product that meets player expectations and supports the long-term success of the Tamagotcha ecosystem.
