Overview Restack.AI is an independent Web3 game studio based in Norway and Ukraine. We are the Galactic Hubs Season 1 and 2 Pioneer Grant recipients. We built Battledome in Season 1 and will develop a community toolset for season 2, allowing us to decentralize the game. In our Discord, we setup a Battledome focus group, inviting the active and vocal players to solicit feedback. As a result, we created, ranked, and estimated a backlog of community feature requests. This is our second community request after successfully implementing the minion movement feature. Description We need to create leagues for the two-player types: Those with common cards only and those with more advanced cards. This enhancement will grow the player base by giving new players a chance to enjoy and win with a reduced barrier to entry while not hindering the more advanced and established player base. Note that 80% of the players only have common and abundant NFTs. Therefore, this change will significantly increase participation and demand for TLM and Alien World's NFTs. Key Requirements Novice Lobby & League: Only players with Abundant and Common NFTs can participate. (Abundant & Common only). Advanced Lobby & League: Players with Rare, Epic, Legendary, and Mythical cards will participate in this league. Arrange NFTs by Phases for easier access: If the user prioritizes the air phase, the Air NFTs will show first on the registration screen. Fire = Show Fire NFTs 1st > Air = Show Air NFTs 1st > and so on. Create an “Introduction to Leagues” video: We will a comprehensive walkthrough with captivating sound and visual effects to update the audience on the new feature. Team This year, we added two junior developers to our team, allowing us to sustain the game's development over the long term.

In addition, he will direct and mentor two new developers who will deliver the project.

He will be an apprentice under Steve as a fullstack developer, supporting Battledome. Kristiyan T (Fullstack Developer) “Bulga” is a community member who will apprentice under Steve to support Battledome. He will start on the frontend, learning React before learning the backend and smart contracts.
