Find Satoshi Lab (FSL), the team behind the blockchain-powered fitness app STEPN, has launched their latest project – Gas Hero. The game, set in a post-apocalyptic world devastated by artificial intelligence, aims to combine strategy, decentralized elements, and community engagement. To celebrate the game’s reveal, FSL has organized a user-generated content contest with a prize pool worth over $431,400.
The Shape the Legends, Share the Glory contest invites participants to design their own version of Gas Hero’s non-fungible tokens (NFTs), called Genesis Heroes. The contest spans three phases, with each phase lasting for a month. In the first phase, currently underway, participants can submit designs for pre-selected character codenames, such as Ape Commander and Combat Queen. The contest aims to select 320 winners per phase, resulting in a total of 960 winners across the three phases.
The winners of the contest will not only receive the title of Gas Hero Genesis Hero Designer but also be rewarded with 2,084 GMT (Gas Hero utility token) and a share of the 2% creator royalties from the NFTs. The criteria for selecting winners include the originality of the theme, design quality, and background story. Participants are allowed to submit designs for multiple heroes, enhancing their chances of success.
Gas Hero continues Find Satoshi Lab’s web3 gaming success
Gas Hero is the latest project from Find Satoshi Lab, following the success of their previous venture, StepN, a blockchain-powered fitness app. FSL is known for its innovation in the Web3 gaming space and aims to replicate its success with Gas Hero. StepN made headlines earlier this year for being the first blockchain gaming app to integrate Apple Pay, allowing users to make in-app purchases using the popular payment platform.
Gas Hero, described as a strategic and socially-oriented Web3 game, offers players the opportunity to guide their Gas Heroes through a post-apocalyptic world, constructing virtual bases and engaging in battles with other players. The game emphasizes community participation and aims to create an immersive and interactive gaming experience.
The Gas Hero contest signifies a shift in Web3 gaming by involving players in the creative process even before the game’s official launch. FSL believes that this approach will attract a wider audience and foster a sense of community engagement within the Web3 space.
As Gas Hero prepares for its launch later this year, the contest serves as a platform for players to showcase their creativity and contribute to the game’s development. The winning designs will not only shape the visual identity of Gas Hero but also provide opportunities for participants to earn rewards and recognition within the Web3 gaming community.
Find Satoshi Lab remains committed to growing the Web3 ecosystem and aims to build upon the success of StepN with the launch of Gas Hero. The contest, coupled with the game’s strategic gameplay and immersive post-apocalyptic setting, sets the stage for an exciting and interactive Web3 gaming experience that combines creativity, community, and blockchain technology.
