Antonio Palma, from My Neighbor Alice, has suggested that there will be significant updates coming soon to the popular blockchain-based metaverse game. Despite its success since its launch in early 2023, the creators have ambitious plans to expand My Neighbor Alice into a virtual universe that surpasses its current game features.
As stated by the game's business director, Antonio Palma, he discussed upcoming plans for users in the coming year during his appearance at the recent GeckoCon 2024 Web3 gaming event.
There may have been some information shared about My Neighbor Alice and the cryptocurrency $ALICE at the CoinGecko event. My Neighbor Alice is more than just a game, with efforts being made to create a universe that expands beyond the game itself. Plans are in place to make the game accessible on various devices. Antonio tweeted about this on November 20, 2024.
When asked unexpectedly during a panel discussion, Palma expressed enthusiasm about revealing three upcoming features that the My Neighbor Alice team is working on. These new additions are scheduled to be released by 2025.
To expand and improve the game, Palma and his team are currently developing a new technology that will allow My Neighbor Alice to be played on various devices, including mobile phones and tablets. Although he didn't provide many details about this technology, it is likely to involve cloud-based streaming. This is indicated by the game's current requirements, which include a PC with Windows 7 or newer, an Intel i5-6400/Ryzen 5 1600 processor or better, at least 8GB of RAM, 6GB of storage space, and an Nvidia or AMD GPU.
"We are likely one of the pioneers in the Web3 gaming industry to test out this technology. This will enable our game to be accessible on any device, rather than being limited to Windows," explained Palma.
Another part of the strategy is to simplify the process of welcoming new players, as it currently requires too much work for those who only play games occasionally.
Palma mentioned that currently, users need to go through seven clicks to access the game and begin playing, such as creating a wallet and signing up. However, the goal is to reduce this process to just one click. Testing has shown that this technology is quite intricate, but there is hope that it will be ready by next year.
The improvements aim to make the game more user-friendly for players who are not familiar with cryptocurrency. My Neighbor Alice aims to attract players who are new to blockchain technology by introducing them to concepts like NFTs, wallets, and crypto in a fun and engaging way.
This game is like a virtual world set in a metaverse, similar to games like Minecraft or Animal Crossing. Players can create and explore virtual worlds, work together with others, and participate in activities like purchasing land, building structures, collecting insects, farming, fishing, and beekeeping.
Within the game, different aspects such as land, characters, structures, vegetation, and animals are all represented by NFTs. The game offers players user-friendly tools to customize their virtual environments and alter the terrain. Through the in-game marketplace, players can purchase and sell these items using ALICE tokens that are obtained by completing tasks, working with others, and succeeding in contests. After creating their virtual worlds, players have the option to earn money from them in various ways.
Palma mentioned that significant changes are coming to the in-game economy. He didn't provide much detail, only mentioning that they are experimenting with a new economy system. There may be announcements about this and the ALICE token next year.
Finally, My Neighbor Alice seems eager to use its position as a top Web3 game to collaborate with different industry players, potentially resulting in new partnerships and integrations in the near future.
Palma mentioned that they have formed a significant partnership with a major brand in the industry. They are currently working on creating an experience with this partnership, but they have not made any official announcements yet. They prefer to wait until they have a tangible product before sharing any news. The project is still in progress and will be revealed soon.
