Inspiration

There are plenty of games that inspired us when creating the cooperative mode of Cukies World.

However, we wanted to make an original game, and to achieve this we combined the learning we got by playing other games with our own and crazy ideas.

This is just the first version of an ongoing work.

What it does

Users can first login and select the Cuki they want to use to play. Afterwards they can team up with other Cukies and play together in a dungeon, solving different puzzles and fighting a handful of enemies.

Groups will be able to compete against other, by saving their stats (like the time required to complete the dungeon stage or the number of treasures collected – if applicable – ) and get different rewards.

Once the final version is available, the Cukies skills – miner, engineer, farmer, scout and gatherer – will play an important role, as in each dungeon there will be some mechanics that only Cukies with a given skill and some special items will be able to fulfill.

How we built it

We are building Cukies World using Unreal Engine 4.

Since the last hackathon we have been focusing on the cooperative mode which is what we are presenting for the 3rd Hackathon Edition, but apart from this we have made some remarkable progress in other parts of the game:

New characters, assets, building and crafting

We are introducing pets in Cukies World. Cukies will be able to feed and take care of them, and in exchange get their company and help while playing some missions.

We have created several new assets divided in different tiers, that can be seen in the video presentation. Apart from this we are sharing a wide variety of items that Cukies can craft.

We made great progress in buildings, and are sharing also some of the house types that Cukies can design, create and decorate.

Challenges we ran into

The most important challenge we faced during this hackathon has been related to the unique login system we are creating.

Since Cukies World can run in several chains, we have been working on a way that users with Cukies can login (no matter where they NFTs are) and select the one of their choice and play using it.

This login system is already implemented in our marketplace (https://marketplace.cukies.world) and everything is ready to be implemented in the game once launched.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Considering the current market conditions, being able to keep a team of 20 people working full-time in Cukies World is an achievement that most start-up can’t fulfill, and we are very proud of this.

What we learned

Crypto space is maturing, but there is still a lot of room for improvement. There are great projects being ignored just because they don’t have enough influential partners or “FOMO” around, while not so great projects with enough hype are doing pretty good.

We are making the correct steps in this sense, not to have only a great game, but also great connections that can help us to grow faster and further.
