Antonio Palma, from My Neighbor Alice, has suggested that there are significant updates on the way for the game. The game has become very popular since it was first released in early 2023, but the creators have even bigger ambitions. Their goal is to expand My Neighbor Alice into a virtual universe that offers much more than just the current game.
As per the game's business director, Antonio Palma, he discussed the upcoming plans for users in the following year at the recent GeckoCon 2024 Web3 gaming event.
During the CoinGecko event, there may have been some information leaked about My Neighbor Alice and its cryptocurrency ALICE. My Neighbor Alice is not just a game, but a universe that is being created to expand beyond the core game. They are currently working on making the game accessible on all devices. Antonio tweeted about this on November 20, 2024.
During a panel discussion, Palma was asked about upcoming releases from the My Neighbor Alice team. He mentioned that there are three alphas currently in development and they are aiming to release all of them by 2025.
To support the growth and scalability of the game, Palma and his team are developing a new technology that will allow My Neighbor Alice to be compatible with various devices, including mobile phones and tablets. While details about the technology were not disclosed, it is likely to involve cloud-based streaming. This is suggested by the current system requirements for the game, which include a PC with Windows 7 OS or newer, an Intel i5-6400/Ryzen 5 1600 processor or better, a minimum of 8GB of RAM, 6GB of storage space, and either an Nvidia or AMD GPU.
"We are likely one of the early adopters of Web3 technology in the gaming industry, and this innovation will enable our game to be accessible on various devices, rather than being limited to Windows operating system," Palma explained.
Another part of the plan aims to simplify the process of welcoming new players, as the current method requires too much work for those who only play games occasionally.
Currently, Palma believes that there are seven steps required to access and begin using the game, such as setting up a wallet and signing up. However, they are working towards reducing this to just one step. Testing has been conducted on the complex technology, with the goal of having it ready by next year.
The recent updates aim to make the game more user-friendly for players who are not familiar with cryptocurrency. My Neighbor Alice wants to attract players who are new to crypto by introducing them to blockchain technology in a fun and engaging way, gradually familiarizing them with concepts like NFTs, wallets, and cryptocurrency.
The game is like a virtual world based on the metaverse concept, similar to popular games like Minecraft or Animal Crossing. Players can create and explore virtual worlds, work together with others, and participate in activities like purchasing land, constructing buildings, collecting insects, farming, fishing, and beekeeping.
Within the game, players use NFTs to represent their land, avatars, buildings, plants, trees, flowers, and animals. The game offers tools that are user-friendly for players to customize their virtual worlds and change the landscape. Players have the option to purchase and sell these items in the in-game marketplace using ALICE tokens, which can be obtained by completing missions, working with others, and succeeding in competitions. After players have constructed their virtual worlds, they can also generate income from them in different ways.
Palma mentioned that there are significant changes planned for the in-game economy. He didn't provide many details, but mentioned that they are currently experimenting with a new economy system. Palma hinted that there may be announcements about this and the ALICE token in the upcoming year.
Finally, My Neighbor Alice is interested in using its position as a popular Web3 game to collaborate with other industry players and potentially integrate with them in the future.
"We have formed a significant partnership with a major intellectual property in the industry," stated Palma. "We have not made any official announcements because we are currently developing the project. We always wait until we have a product ready before making any announcements. This partnership is in progress and will be revealed soon."
