# Warped Universe Whitepaper

Warped Games presents Warped Universe

This whitepaper covers everything you need to know about Warped Universe. Game design, economic model, team background, and the infrastructure behind it all.


# What is "Warped"?

Warped represents a shift of consciousness brought about by exploring the extraordinary and venturing into the unknown.

## To begin, let's explore what "Warped" represents:&#x20;

### Warped Games

Warped Games is a studio built by people who have shipped games, from independent titles to AAA releases, and stayed curious about what comes next. Our team includes veterans who have led development on some of the largest MMO titles in the industry, alongside designers, engineers, and creators who have spent careers building worlds players don't want to leave.

We build games that respect players' time and reward their investment. Every system we design, every mechanic we ship, is built around one question: does this make the experience better?

### Warped Universe

Warped Universe is a co-op PvE sci-fi game where every mission matters. Players explore uncharted solar systems, defend facilities under siege, upgrade their Echo, and push back against the Void, an enemy force that doesn't negotiate and doesn't stop.

What sets Warped Universe apart is how you play. Before each mission, you choose your genre: real-time action or turn-based tactics. Same universe, same stakes, completely different feel. Solo or with a squad, your decisions shape the solar system and move the story forward.

The Void isn't a backdrop. It's a threat that scales, adapts, and punishes complacency. Every mission you complete is progress. Every mission you fail has consequences.


# Lore Introduction

The Beginnings of a New Universe

Re-emerging from the remnants of a chaotic, ancient realm, this universe challenges the boundaries of space and time as we know them. Overseen by the Oracle, an enigmatic artificial intelligence, humanity is called upon to face a daunting task: restoring balance to a fragile and volatile universe. Among the many, only the most creative and determined individuals are chosen by the Oracle to embark on this transformative mission. The ingenuity and resolve of these select individuals will be tested as they navigate mysteries, harness volatile forces, and contend with a relentless adversary threatening to erase anything and everything in its path.&#x20;

Those brave enough to heed the Oracle’s call are drawn to Celadon Station, a repurposed oil rig concealing a cutting-edge particle enrichment laboratory deep beneath the Pacific Ocean. There, armed with knowledge provided by the Oracle, scientists have engineered the Celadon Gate, a portal leading to a new dimension so incomprehensible that it could only be described as the Warped Universe.

# The Nexus Station

The Heart of the Warped Universe

The Nexus Station will serve as the central hub for players in Warped Universe, functioning as a vibrant social, strategic, and operational base. It will stand as a testament to the ingenuity of the Oracle and the determination of its first settlers.&#x20;

The core function of the Nexus Station is utilizing advanced technology to construct new planets using the Residuum collected by its inhabitants, the players.&#x20;

More than just a home base made with otherworldly physics, the Nexus Station will act as a dynamic social hub where players can interact, explore, and showcase their avatars. Some of the features within the Nexus Station will include:

* **A Real-Time 3D Solar System Map:** Here players will be able to track the current state of the Warped Universe, monitor planetary progress, view operational facilities, and scout for regions under threat from the Void. This feature will add a strategic layer to mission selection and player agency.&#x20;
* **The In-Game Store:** Players can make their way over to the in-game store to purchase Koju and spend it on a variety of cosmetics and customizations, allowing them to personalize their characters and equipment, ensuring they can fight off the Void in style.&#x20;
* **Workstations:** These specialized areas will be where players can acquire new equipment, unlock skills, and apply upgrades.&#x20;
* **Interactive and Social Spaces:** As the central hub, the Nexus Station will feature interactive spaces where players can relax, socialize, and share tales of their adventures.

Acting as the beating heart of this new civilization tasked with building the Warped Universe, the Nexus Station will provide a space where players can gather, strategize, and take a breath from the destructive forces of the Void.


# Factions

Different Paths, Leading to a Singular Goal

In the Warped Universe, light and gravity are not merely forces but primal entities, the architects of existence. Unlike Earth, where these forces have settled into a predictable rhythm, they exist here in a volatile, malleable state, offering a nearly infinite source of cosmic potential.

The balance of light and gravity is essential to the Warped Universe and to the player’s ability to combat the immeasurable threats they face. Let’s explore the factions that harness these forces.

### The Luminaries&#x20;

Driven by an insatiable curiosity and a desire to uncover the secrets of the cosmos, the Luminaries represent the spirit of adventure and the pursuit of knowledge in the vast expanse of space. They see the Warped Universe not as a remnant of destruction, but as a canvas of infinite possibilities waiting to be explored and understood.

A catalyst for them was the discovery of star maps in the Oracle's archives. These maps, showing both charted and uncharted sectors of the Warped Universe, ignited the imaginations of these explorers.

The group, united through boundless wonder, formally organized themselves as the Luminaries, dedicating their efforts to exploration, diplomacy, the pursuit of knowledge, and the discovery of new technologies. Their motto, "Illuminating the Unknown," became a beacon for like-minded individuals on the station. Inspired by the way light travels across space, unfettered and illuminating, they strive to expand their knowledge and presence in the Warped Universe.

### The Foundationalists&#x20;

As the Warped Universe captivated many with its cosmic allure, some began to advocate for a more focused approach: strengthening and fortifying the Nexus Station. Grounded in the belief that true strength comes from within, this philosophy gave rise to a group known as the Foundationalists.

The Foundationalists commit themselves to ensuring that the Nexus Station is not just a waypoint but a stronghold of safety, knowledge, and community. They view the Nexus Station as a sanctuary for the myriad beings displaced or affected by the cosmic upheavals of the Warped Universe. In their vision, the Nexus Station should have the capabilities and capacity to welcome and sustain all who seek shelter and purpose within its confines.

United under the motto, "Strength in Foundation," the Foundationalists emphasize their commitment to security and sustainability.

### Balancing Forces in a Fragile Universe

While the Luminaries and Foundationalists may have different approaches and goals, they understand the importance of cooperation and balance. Conflict between them is rare, as they recognize that tipping the balance too far in one direction can lead to instability, causing psychedelic and destructive environments that affect gameplay for all. Utilizing the forces of light and gravity can create chaotic events when players favor one force over the other, altering the landscape and player experience in unexpected ways. However, they should not be opposed to shifting the balance, when necessary, as such shifts can enhance or transform abilities, leading to unique tactical advantages.


# The Void

The Silent Force Behind the Chaos

The Void exists as a stark contrast to the vibrant chaos of the Warped Universe. It is neither malevolent or benevolent; it simply is, perpetually striving to reclaim what it perceives as noise and return it to an undisturbed silence.

<figure><img src="/files/OmSM5e2mpZI8v8KaJPBg" alt=""><figcaption><p>Image of the Void from Warped Universe – Work in Progress (Not Final).</p></figcaption></figure>

Manifesting through entities that reflect its nature of non-existence, these beings are formless and adaptive, reacting to the presence and actions of those trying to rebuild the Warped Universe. These entities do not engage in traditional conflict but instead employ a strategy of attrition, wearing down the will and hope of its opponents until they succumb to despair.

The Void's goal is simple yet profound, to revert the Warped Universe to a state of pure potentiality, where nothing exists but the primordial essence of possibility. It views the Oracle’s attempts at reconstruction as a perverse act of defiance against the natural order of existence. The Void believes that by erasing everything, it will restore balance, creating a grim equilibrium where neither suffering nor joy can exist.


# Gameplay Introduction

Built by Players, For Players

In Warped Universe, players shape the environment through their actions and decisions. Every mission contributes to a living universe that evolves with the people playing it.

The design philosophy is simple: give players real choices. Whether you prefer strategic turn-based planning, fast-paced real-time action, or switching between both depending on the mission, Warped Universe adapts to how you want to play.

Progression is skill-based and fair. Cosmetics and customizations can be owned and personalized, but nothing in the store affects how well you play. The game rewards effort, not spending.


# Player-vs-Environment

Collaborative Gameplay

In single-player or co-op, players will face the Void, a formidable force that will serve as the primary antagonist in Season Zero. These opposing forces, with traits similar to those of the players, will vary in strength, numbers, and equipment, ensuring dynamic and engaging challenges that change with each mission.&#x20;

To accommodate different playstyles, missions will offer varying levels of difficulty, presenting challenges for both newcomers and experienced players. With each mission uniquely shaped by the evolving state of the Warped Universe, no two experiences will feel the same, keeping gameplay fresh, rewarding, and immersive.

To succeed, players will have to strategically harness the forces of light and gravity, balancing both long-term plans and immediate tactics. These choices shape the Warped Universe and form the core repeatable gameplay loop.


# Planets and Facilities

Building, Expanding, and Defending the Warped Universe

Building new planets and facilities lies at the heart of the Warped Universe's metagame, serving as the driving force that pushes the Warped Universe forward. Each season, players must collaborate to expand the solar system by constructing planets that house critical facilities. These facilities offer opportunities to uncover new technologies to build new equipment, improve skills or attributes, reduce specific resource costs, and further develop the Warped Universe, from which all players can benefit.&#x20;

<figure><img src="/files/IAXAzjWifn87ETo9vmWX" alt=""><figcaption><p>Image from Warped Universe – Work in Progress (Not Final).</p></figcaption></figure>

The foundation of progress in Warped Universe is Residuum, collected through missions and used to build planets and facilities. Instead of being pooled universally, Residuum is allocated based on the missions players choose. For example, one mission might focus on constructing a research facility to unlock new equipment, while another could aim to gather Residuum for building an entirely new planet. This means that each mission players choose carry meaningful implications across the solar system, creating real agency as their decisions have an immediate and lasting impact on the evolution of the Warped Universe.&#x20;

However, the Warped Universe remains in a delicate balance, as these creations are not invincible. The Void, ever-present and relentless, seeks to undo progress by targeting and destroying facilities, and if given the chance, whole planets may return to nothingness. If these structures are not properly defended, the technologies, perks, and content they provide risk being erased from existence, undoing hard-earned advancements.

This dynamic fosters genuine player agency, where decisions, mission selection, and collective efforts directly influence the Warped Universe's trajectory. Success and failure become tangible, creating an evolving environment that constantly reacts to players’ actions, sometimes for better, sometimes for worse.


# Choosing Your Genre

Space at Your Pace

Drawing from our passion for diverse gaming experiences, we have developed an innovative design that integrates multiple genres within a single environment. This allows players to select their mission and then choose their preferred gameplay style, whether real-time action or turn-based strategy. Both genres utilize the same weapons, skills, damage systems, and mechanics, creating a fluid transition that enhances immersion, increases engagement, and broadens appeal.

#### Real-Time Action: On the Ground or in Flight&#x20;

As a third-person action shooter, this gameplay style caters to fast-paced thrill-seekers, making it perfect for immersive experiences on PC or console.

<figure><img src="/files/48sjhyLfaksj1my6TT47" alt=""><figcaption><p>Image showing both ground and flight real-time action modes in Warped Universe - Work in Progress (Not Final).</p></figcaption></figure>

#### Turn-Based Strategy: On the Ground or in Flight&#x20;

This top-down game style is ideal for players who prefer a more tactical approach. It also makes Warped Universe more accessible to mobile and tablet gaming audiences.

<figure><img src="/files/ZFLp17jdOaL0f1PtoeRm" alt=""><figcaption><p>Image showing both ground and flight turn-based strategy modes in Warped Universe - Work in Progress (Not Final).</p></figcaption></figure>

### Play Your Way

By allowing players to select how they engage with each mission, Warped Universe caters to a wide range of playstyles while encouraging collaboration across the community. This innovative approach draws on the preferred mechanics of popular real-time games like Fortnite and Helldivers 2, as well as successful turn-based strategy mechanics found in Dungeons and Dragons and XCOM, making Warped Universe appeal to an audience with diverse gaming preferences.

Looking ahead, additional game genres may be introduced during post-launch development, shaped by player preferences through $WARPED-holder votes. This evolving, multi-genre approach ensures Warped Universe remains dynamic and supported by growing trends and player preferences, as detailed in the **Market Opportunity** section.


# Choosing Your Mission

Choices That Shape the Warped Universe

Missions in Warped Universe serve as the lifeblood of the metagame, with each decision directly impacting the balance, expansion, and survival of the Warped Universe. From the Nexus Station, players will be able to interact with a real-time 3D map of the solar system, offering a dynamic and visually immersive way to track planetary progress, facility development, and regions under threat from the Void. This feature will deepen immersion by allowing players to strategically choose missions based on real-time data, ensuring their actions leave a lasting impact with every play session.

### **The Impact of Missions on the Warped Universe**

Below are some examples of how missions will shape both personal growth and the broader progression of the metagame:&#x20;

* **Collecting Residuum:** Expedite the development of new planets, facilities, and technologies while advancing personal progression through claiming end-of-mission rewards.&#x20;
* **Defending Assets:** The protection of planets, outposts, and facilities from Void assaults will be critical to ensuring their continued functionality and survival, with implications for both the Warped Universe and personal development.
* **Convoy Defense:** Escorting critical supplies and reinforcements to sustain outposts and facilities will be essential for long-term survival and success.
* **Shifting the Light/Gravity Balance:** Aligning with either the Luminaries or Foundationalists when completing missions will sway the balance toward light or gravity, impacting the universe's dynamic for all players, for better or worse.&#x20;

These examples illustrate how players’ choices will impact not only their own progression but also the progression of the Warped Universe itself. The Warped Universe will be a fragile, dynamic environment that must be balanced through collective decision-making and collaboration, not solely personal ambition.

### **Genre and Gameplay Variety**

As highlighted in Choosing Your Genre, players have the freedom to decide how they approach each mission. Certain missions may lend themselves better to turn-based strategy for tactical depth or real-time action for immersive intensity. This variety ensures that no two missions feel alike and offers players the flexibility to tailor their experience based on their preferred playstyle.

### **Designed for Collaboration**

Missions in Warped Universe foster collaboration, with objectives designed for cooperative play. Players can join forces to tackle larger threats, such as Void invasions, or to achieve ambitious goals like building a planet to uncover new resources and technologies. Working together on shared objectives enables greater rewards and amplifies the impact of co-op PvE gameplay.


# Choosing Your Skillset

Adapting and Evolving Your Playstyle

Skills in Warped Universe are designed to offer adaptability, allowing players to tailor their abilities to match the challenges they face. Whether aligning with the Luminaries or the Foundationalists for a mission, players can experiment with a variety of skills unique to each faction. This flexibility ensures that no player is locked into game-defining decisions from the outset and can change their approach as their playstyle evolves or to adapt to the demands of a specific objective.

### Adapting Skills to Missions

The skills players choose will depend on their preferred playstyle or the objectives of a mission. For example, when facing a horde of Void enemies, players may unleash an area-of-effect gravity-based ability like the Singularity Pulse, or perhaps there may be a light-based skill better suited to their strategy. This flexibility ensures players have diverse options that cater to a variety of playstyles and preferences for a more fun and engaging experience.&#x20;

### Influences on Skill Choices

Skill choices are not only shaped by mission types but also by the evolving state of the Warped Universe:

* **Facility Enhancements:** Newly built or upgraded facilities may enhance specific skills, providing boosts to their effectiveness or unlocking unique capabilities.
* **Universe Dynamics:** The current balance of light and gravity within the Warped Universe may influence a player’s skillset. For instance, certain skills may become more useful if the state of the universe is skewed more towards light or gravity.&#x20;

By allowing players to adapt their skillsets and experiment with new approaches for each mission, Warped Universe encourages continuous exploration of different gameplay styles. This level of flexibility is designed to enhance player retention and long-term enjoyment.


# Choosing Your Equipment

Load Up and Loadouts

Equipment in Warped Universe will be central to shaping your gameplay experience. It offers flexibility and customization to suit your unique playstyle, achieve specific objectives, and to stand out from the crowd.&#x20;

Equipment is earned through gameplay by acquiring **Artifractal Cores**, rewarding player progression and ensuring a fair and balanced ecosystem. For more details on obtaining and customizing equipment, refer to the **Mission Rewards and Player Progression** section.

### **Categories and Classifications**&#x20;

Equipment is organized into broad categories, each containing specific classifications that define its role and functionality. For example:&#x20;

Weapons:

* Heavy rifle
* Pistol
* Sniper rifle
* Shotgun
* Grenade launcher
* Close combat weapons&#x20;

Armor:

* Heavy armor
* Light armor

Ships:

* Wings
* Body
* Tail

***Disclaimer: The items in this example are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent finalized game specifications.***

### **Base Equipment and Customization**

Each classification starts with a single base-level piece of equipment, designed to evolve as players progress. This design allows for extensive customization and personalization, empowering players to adapt their gear to suit their playstyle, enhance performance, and express their individuality.&#x20;


# Choosing Your Upgrades and Enhancements

Spark Your Creativity

<figure><img src="/files/HzEdcar9Zkiyjtb31ZyR" alt=""><figcaption><p>Image from Warped Universe – Work in Progress (Not Final).</p></figcaption></figure>

Sparks are the upgrades that define and enhance the performance of your equipment. Earned through end-of-mission rewards, these upgrades provide players with the flexibility to tailor their weapons, armor, and ships to suit their unique playstyle and objectives.&#x20;

Sparks vary depending on the category and classification of equipment they can be applied to:

* **Damage Buffs:** Increase flat or percentage-based damage output.
* **Critical Enhancements:** Boost critical hit chance or critical damage.&#x20;
* **Defense Modifiers:** Improve health, shield regeneration, or resistance to specific damage types.&#x20;
* **Utility Adjustments:** Adjust reload speeds, fire rates, or reduce cooldown times for specific abilities.&#x20;

***Disclaimer: The items in this example are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent finalized game specifications.***

For more information on how attributes are earned and applied to equipment with **Sparks** and their **Potential**, please refer to **Mission Rewards and Player Progression** section.&#x20;


# Choosing Your Cosmetics and Customizations

Empowering Identity Through Ownership

Cosmetics and customizations allow players to express their individuality and make their experience in Warped Universe truly their own. While attributes enhance functionality, cosmetics focus on personalization, offering a wide array of options to visually distinguish your equipment and character.

All cosmetics and customizations are stored in the player's Game Vault as digital assets, with the option to withdraw them to a Personal Vault. This gives players full ownership of their items and the ability to trade them on the secondary market. For further details, see the Ownership in Warped Universe section.

**Ways to Obtain Cosmetics and Customizations**

Cosmetics in Warped Universe are either exclusively earned or purchased, never both. Regardless of how they are obtained, all cosmetics grant full ownership through the Game Vault.

**Earned**

Some cosmetics cannot be purchased and must be earned through gameplay. These include rewards from:

Seasonal Progression: Every player earns cosmetics by progressing through each season. Players who hold a Nexus Pass unlock premium cosmetics alongside the standard track as they progress.

Seasonal Events and Campaigns: Earned by completing or participating in limited-time events and campaigns.

Achievements: Earned by completing personal milestones.

Unique Quests and Challenges: Earned by completing random quests or challenges.

**Purchased**

The in-game store hosts a variety of cosmetics available for purchase using Koju. These items are limited edition, either by quantity or time availability.

**Types of Cosmetics and Customizations**

Equipment Skins: Transform the appearance of weapons, armor, and ships with unique designs and themes.

Attachments and Effects: Add aesthetic enhancements such as holographic sights, glowing accents, or elemental effects.

Character and In-Game Customizations: Personalize your character with emotes, unique auras, titles, and dice cosmetics.


# Seasonal Development

Changing with the Seasons

Warped Universe is a game in constant motion. Each season reshapes the universe in meaningful ways, not just new content on top of the same foundation.

Every season introduces a new solar system with its own missions, planets, and technology. Lore expands with new species, environments, weapons, and cosmetics that reflect each civilization's identity. The game's visual design evolves too, keeping the experience fresh rather than stagnant.

Limited edition cosmetics are available only during their season. Once a new season begins, previous items remain usable but leave the store permanently. The only way to get them after that is through other players.


# Mission Rewards and Player Progression Introduction

Merit Based Player Progression for Fun and Fair Gameplay

Mission rewards in Warped Universe are designed to keep players engaged, invested, and strategically involved in their progression. Gameplay-enhancing items are earned solely through playing, ensuring skill, effort, and strategy are the driving forces behind growth. No shortcuts, no pay-to-win.

By focusing on a streamlined, merit-based rewards loop, players make meaningful choices about how they grow without wading through item bloat or currency spam.

To preserve fairness, items and resources that directly impact player progression are non-transferable between players. This keeps the playing field level and the experience skill-driven for everyone.


# Residuum

The Detritus of Eternity

Residuum is the core resource driving progression in the Warped Universe. Collected during missions, Residuum serves as the foundation for advancing both individual player growth and the progression of the Warped Universe itself. This versatile resource is critical to shaping the Warped Universe, connecting every mission to meaningful outcomes.

### **Individual Use: Empowering Player Progression**

Residuum empowers players to shape their journey through the Warped Universe:

* **End-of-Mission Rewards:** Residuum can be allocated at the end of missions to obtain rewards, such as Nexite, Sparks, Artifractal Cores, or Battle Pass XP.
* **In-Mission Utility:** Players can use Residuum to amplify certain skills, enabling strategic advantages in critical moments, or transmute it into ammunition during emergencies.

This dual-purpose presents players with meaningful choices: Should you use the Residuum you collect to gain immediate advantages in a mission, or save it for post-mission rewards, and your long-term growth?&#x20;

Note: Residuum cannot be stored or carried over between missions. Residuum collected can only be used during the mission or at its conclusion.&#x20;

### **Collective Use: Advancing the Warped Universe**

Residuum also fuels the broader development of the Warped Universe:

* **Building New Planets and Facilities:** At the Nexus Station, Residuum powers the creation of new planets and facilities, shaping the evolving gameplay by influencing the overall metagame. For example, constructing a new research lab might unlock new technology, providing access to advanced equipment or powerful upgrades, enhancing gameplay strategies for all players.&#x20;
* **Strengthening Community Goals:** As a shared resource, Residuum ensures that every mission contributes to the collective progress of all players. Large-scale projects, such as building new planets and facilities, will require a specific amount of Residuum collected across all missions. These shared objectives will foster collaboration and motivate the community to work together toward the advancement of the Warped Universe.&#x20;


# Artifractal Cores

The Core of Progression

Artifractal Cores will allow players to acquire new equipment, such as weapons, armor, or ship components. Available in different rarities, they determine the base statistics and number of attributes applied to the equipment, combining strategic choice with an element of discovery.&#x20;

### Earning Artifractal Cores

Earned as part of a player’s end-of-mission rewards, Artifractal Cores are obtained by allocating Residuum collected from a mission for them. This ensures that advancing equipment is directly tied to a player’s effort and current needs.&#x20;

### Artifractal Core Rarity and Their Impact on Equipment

Artifractal Cores come in different rarities, which determine both the number of attributes and the range of statistics applied to the equipment when claimed. Higher rarity Cores provide better opportunities for stronger and more numerous attributes, while lower rarity Cores have more modest ranges and attributes.

The attributes and their values are randomized within a specific range based on the Core’s rarity.&#x20;

**For example:**\
A player uses a low-tier Artifractal Core to obtain a rifle. The result might include:

* 3 random attributes, such as +10% Damage, +5% Fire Rate, and +3% Accuracy.

If the player is unsatisfied with these attributes, they can spend another Artifractal Core to create a new version of the rifle in the hope of getting better attributes within the Artifractal Core’s range. A higher-tier Artifractal Core could increase their chance to generate more attributes (e.g., 4–5) and within a higher statistical range (e.g., +15% Damage or +10% Accuracy).&#x20;

***Disclaimer: The numbers in this example are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent finalized game specifications.***

### Summary

Players acquire Artifractal Cores as mission rewards, select the type of equipment to craft at the dedicated workstation on the Nexus Station, and spend Nexite to finalize the process. The Artifractal Core’s rarity determines the range of randomized attributes, and players can spend another Artifractal Core for an opportunity to get a more optimized base specification.&#x20;


# Sparks and Potential

Enhancing Destructive Potential

All equipment classifications begin with a single base version. Artifractal Cores determine the randomized base attributes of that equipment, while Sparks enable players to customize and enhance equipment attributes to suit their goals.&#x20;

Each Spark is attribute-specific, meaning it applies a single, predefined enhancement to a piece of equipment. For example:&#x20;

* One Spark might add +5 Damage&#x20;
* One Spark might add +3% Accuracy&#x20;

Sparks provide meaningful progression by allowing players to fine-tune their equipment, whether they want to optimize for specific stats, adapt to their playstyle, or prepare for particular objectives. Combined with cosmetics, which alter the visual appearance of equipment, Sparks give players complete control over both the performance enhancement and appearance of their equipment.

### Earning Sparks

Sparks are earned as part of a player’s end-of-mission rewards. By allocating Residuum, players can choose Sparks alongside other resources to prepare for future upgrades.

### **Upgrading Equipment with Sparks**

Upgrading equipment in Warped Universe involves managing three key components:

1. **Sparks:** The upgrade material that determines the attribute or effect being applied.
2. **Nexite:** The resource required to apply Sparks to equipment.&#x20;
3. **Potential:** A finite resource on each piece of equipment that limits the total number of Sparks that can be applied.&#x20;

#### **An Example of the Upgrade Process:**

1. Collect Residuum during missions to claim Sparks as part of end-of-mission rewards.
2. Once back on the Nexus Station, locate the dedicated upgrade workstation and select the piece of equipment you wish to empower.&#x20;
3. Apply the specific Spark(s) to upgrade the desired attribute or effect.&#x20;
4. Spend the required Nexite cost to complete the upgrade.
5. A random amount of the equipment’s Potential is consumed per Spark, limiting how many total enhancements can be applied.

## **Potential: Balancing Upgrades**&#x20;

Similar to how base attributes are determined by the use of Artifractal Cores, Sparks introduce an element of randomization by consuming a variable amount of Potential. This creates strategic tension, encouraging players to carefully consider which Sparks to apply and when to reset their equipment's Potential.

Example:\
A player applies a +5 Damage Spark to a weapon with a maximum of 20 Potential. The Spark consumes 4 Potential, leaving 16 Potential remaining. The exact amount of Potential consumed is randomized within a specific range, and players have no way of predicting how much subsequent Sparks will use.

***Disclaimer: The numbers in this example are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent finalized game specifications.***

### **Resetting Equipment Potential**

If a player is unhappy with the amount of Potential consumed by applied Sparks, they have the option to reset the equipment’s Potential by spending Nexite and an Artifractal Core. Resetting removes all applied Sparks, which are burned and cannot be recovered. Players cannot remove individual Sparks, only all of them at once.

This system introduces a meaningful trade-off, as players must weigh the cost of resetting against the loss of their previous upgrades.


# Nexite

The Cost of Achieving Greatness

Nexite is the primary resource for utilizing progression-based rewards in Warped Universe. Used to cover the cost of acquiring and enhancing equipment, Nexite plays a key role in enabling players to grow their capabilities through meaningful gameplay. As Nexite is used to enhance gameplay mechanics, it must be earned, and is not available to be purchased.&#x20;

### **How Nexite is Earned**

Players can claim Nexite as part of their end-of-mission rewards by allocating Residuum collected during the mission.

### **How Nexite is Used**

Nexite empowers players to customize, enhance, and refine their equipment at the Nexus Station:

* **Exchanging Artifractal Cores:** Nexite will be required to exchange Artifractal Cores at workstations to obtain new equipment.
* **Applying Sparks:** Nexite will be required to apply Sparks to weapons, armor, and ships, unlocking new stats, attributes, and effects.
* **Resetting an Equipment’s Potential:** If players are unhappy with the Sparks applied to a piece of equipment or the Potential consumed by them, they can reset the equipment to its base attributes and Potential by spending Nexite and an Artifractal Core.


# Seasonal Rewards

Seasonal Rewards in Warped Universe provide players with a structured path for earning rewards and unlocking customizations as they complete missions and progress through the game. Available in Free and Premium (Paid) tiers, the Nexus Pass offers a variety of rewards that focus primarily on customization and unlocking content, ensuring that progression remains fair and skill-based.&#x20;

### Earning Bonus XP

Players will always earn XP by completing missions, ensuring steady progression through the tiers. However, as part of the end-of-mission rewards, players can choose to allocate Residuum to claim Bonus XP, advancing quicker.


# Summary

Designed for Balanced, Meaningful Progression

The mission rewards system in Warped Universe has been designed to provide a sustainable, fair, and rewarding progression experience. By carefully balancing item rarity, resource usage, and upgrade opportunities, we ensure that every reward feels meaningful and progression remains driven by player effort and strategic decision-making.

As development progresses, these mechanics will be continuously monitored, refined, and adjusted to ensure a balanced and enjoyable experience for all players. Our goal is to build a progression system that evolves with player feedback and stands the test of time.


# WARPED and Cosmetic Rewards Introduction

Seasonal Events, Campaigns, and Unique Challenges

WARPED tokens and exclusive cosmetic rewards give players ways to engage with Warped Universe beyond the core gameplay loop. These rewards sit outside standard progression and are earned through special events, campaigns, and unique challenges.

Whether through collective goals, time-limited activities, or hidden surprises, these rewards add variety, encourage community participation, and carry a layer of exclusivity that standard progression does not offer.

Cosmetic rewards earned this way are stored in your Game Vault. Players who want to trade or transfer them can do so by connecting a Personal Vault through the Warped Games website. For more details see the Ownership in Warped Universe section.


# Events

Rewarding Collaboration

Events bring the community together around large-scale goals with real impact on the Warped Universe. These might involve building a new planet or facility, defeating a set number of enemies, or completing other major objectives that no single player could achieve alone.

When an event is completed, all participating players receive WARPED and cosmetic rewards based on their contributions. Event-exclusive cosmetics cannot be purchased anywhere in the game. They are earned, full stop. Players can keep, trade, or sell them as they choose.


# Campaigns

Rewarding Participation

Campaigns encourage players to engage with specific game modes, maps, or missions within a set timeframe. They often coincide with new content drops, giving players a reason to dive into fresh experiences as soon as they arrive.

Players who meet the campaign criteria earn WARPED and cosmetic rewards to keep, trade, or use as they choose.


# Quests and Challenges

Rewarding Discovery with a Sprinkle of Fortune

From time to time Warped Universe drops one-off opportunities to earn rewards through exploration, puzzles, and hidden quests. Stumble across a Nyzrak inscription mid-mission, decipher it, and walk away with something nobody else has. These are rare, unannounced, and the rewards are one-time only.


# Art and Design Introduction

A Warped Twist on the Sci-Fi Genre

Sci-fi worlds rely on striking visuals to capture their vision of the future. With Warped Universe, we take this a step further, blending familiar elements of classic science fiction with a distinct, psychedelic twist. Every detail is crafted to immerse players in a universe that feels both mysterious and expansive, making Warped Universe content instantly recognizable and captivating with its unique atmosphere.


# Visual Balance

Futuristic Meets Classic

Balance is at the heart of everything in Warped Universe. It’s woven into the story, gameplay mechanics, and even the visuals. Whether it’s balancing light and gravity within the game’s universe or the interaction between player input and developer creativity, everything is designed with equilibrium in mind. Our goal is to create a seamless blend of innovation and familiarity, ensuring that every aspect of the game contributes to a cohesive, engaging experience.

During the formative period of the project, our team explored the style and themes of our favorite media, including movies, games, album art, paintings, and various forms of art. These discussions often led to a singular realization: the team was most inspired by the raw creativity found in concept art itself. Instead of taking direct influence from finished works in media, the team asked: What if the distinct aesthetic of concept art came to life in the game?

This question led to an exploration of painterly environments in-game and a study of what works and what doesn’t, particularly when using this style. The result was a defining visual rule: psychedelic, painterly environments contrasted with crisp, clear character designs to provide balance. When characters are detailed and vibrant, they highlight the artistic nature of the environments. Conversely, when environments possess a unique watercolor or concept art quality, they make the characters and their cosmetics stand out even more.

<figure><img src="/files/zvSKEk4zZTuzqelQJfr3" alt=""><figcaption><p>Image from Warped Universe – Work in Progress (Not Final).</p></figcaption></figure>

This intentional juxtaposition of cutting-edge graphics with the charm of hand-painted, tabletop-inspired aesthetics ensures that every in-game scene evokes a distinctive sense of wonder while maintaining clarity and focus.


# Unreal Engine 5

Harnessing Unreal Engine to Birth a Universe

Warped Universe is built on Unreal Engine 5, an engine our team knows well. That experience matters. We're not learning the tools while shipping the game.

**Nanite and Lumen**

Nanite virtualized geometry and Lumen real-time lighting let us build environments with high detail and realistic lighting without sacrificing performance. Nanite handles intricate geometry efficiently, and Lumen delivers dynamic shadows and atmospheric lighting that make the Warped Universe feel alive.

**Built for Immersion**

Every element, from physics to graphics, is optimized for smooth, responsive gameplay. Our team's hands-on experience with UE5 means we can push the engine where it counts and pull back where it doesn't, keeping performance tight across a wide range of hardware.

**Procedural Content Generation**

Warped Universe is built on handcrafted environments, missions, and planets. Our team designs each experience with intention, not randomness.

Where it makes sense, we use UE5's procedural content generation to fill and populate the world dynamically. Asteroid fields, spatial arrangements, environmental details, the kind of content that would take months to place by hand gets generated intelligently from our own asset library and rules. The result is a universe that feels full and alive without compromising the quality of our core designs.


# Ownership in Warped Universe Introduction

Meaningful Integration in Gaming

Warped Universe is built around a simple principle: players should own what they earn. Cosmetics, customizations, and seasonal rewards can be truly owned, traded, or held. Gameplay-enhancing items like weapons, skills, and ships are earned through play and stay off the market entirely, keeping the experience fair and skill-driven.

For players who want a traditional gaming experience, everything works exactly as expected. For players who want to go deeper, ownership features are there when they are ready.


# Nexus Pass

Your Key to the Universe and Tracking Progression

**Tracking Your Journey Through Each Season**

The Nexus Pass tracks player progression throughout each season. Every player gets a free Nexus Pass automatically. Players who upgrade to the Premium Nexus Pass unlock expanded rewards across all 100 tiers, including exclusive cosmetics and new missions.

Upgrading from free to Premium can happen at any point in a season without losing progress.

**Tier Structure and Progression**

Each Nexus Pass has 100 tiers with a reward at every tier for Premium holders. Free holders unlock rewards at select tiers only.

Players who complete all 100 tiers can reset to a higher difficulty, adding depth and replayability to the progression system. Five difficulty levels are available, each offering enhanced variations of previously earned items including alternative textures, colors, rare traits, and increased Koju rewards. Completing all difficulty levels means 500 tiers total per season.

**Ownership and Accessibility**

One Premium Nexus Pass per account per season keeps progression tied to individual effort. Items unlocked through the Nexus Pass belong to the player regardless of what happens to the pass itself. Players can sell or transfer their Premium Nexus Pass without losing any rewards already earned.

**Accessing Past Content**

Premium Nexus Passes act as keys to previous seasons. Players can use, rent, or transfer their passes to revisit and unlock content from seasons they may have missed, keeping earlier content accessible rather than locking it away permanently.


# Koju

The Currency for Customization

Koju is the in-game currency used to purchase cosmetics, customizations, and Nexus Passes. Pegged at $0.01, Koju functions as a closed-loop currency on the Sui Network. It is not tradeable and behaves like a standard in-game currency.

All Koju transactions are handled seamlessly in the background. Players never need to interact with any external wallets or interfaces to spend Koju. It works exactly like any other in-game currency, with the Sui Network running quietly behind the scenes.


# Game Vault

Secure Asset Storage for Every Player

Every Warped Universe account on Epic gets a Game Vault automatically on creation. The Game Vault is a custodial wallet that stores all purchases and earned items securely on the Sui Network.

Gas fees are covered by Warped Games, so players never encounter friction from network transactions. For players who prefer a traditional setup, the Game Vault functions simply as a secure storage system for their items. Nothing extra is required.


# Personal Vault

Full Ownership for Players Who Want It

Players who want complete control of their items can connect a personal non-custodial wallet through the Warped Games website. Once connected, items can be withdrawn from the Game Vault to the Personal Vault, enabling full ownership and the ability to trade on the open market.

The game recognizes your items whether they are in your Game Vault or Personal Vault, so ownership never interrupts your ability to play. This step is entirely optional. Players who prefer to keep everything inside the game can do so without any limitations on their experience.


# Navigating Purchases in Warped Universe

Two Ways to Shop

Warped Universe offers two purchase paths depending on what you need.

The in-game store handles cosmetics and Nexus Pass upgrades, purchasable with Koju directly in the game.

For purchasing Koju, players have options depending on their platform:

* Steam: Available through the Steam Marketplace
* Epic Games: Supported through XSolla
* Warped Games Website: Supports fiat and cryptocurrency including WARPED

All Koju purchases are instantly credited to the player account regardless of which method is used.


# How it Works

**Playing on Steam**

Steam players get the full Warped Universe experience using familiar systems. Koju functions as a standard in-game currency, cosmetics are stored in your Steam account, and items can be traded on the Steam Marketplace just like any other Steam game. No wallets, no extra steps, nothing outside the normal Steam experience.

**Playing on Epic**

Epic players access Warped Universe through a Sui Network backend. Koju and cosmetics are stored in your Game Vault, a secure account tied to your Warped Universe profile. Players who want full ownership can connect a personal wallet through the Warped Games website and move items into their Personal Vault for trading on the open market. The game recognizes your items whether they are in your Game Vault or Personal Vault, so ownership never interrupts your ability to play.

**Two Platforms, Two Markets, One Game**

Steam players trade on the Steam Marketplace. Epic players trade through the Sui Network. Both are real markets with real ownership. The game works the same way regardless of which platform you play on.

For players who just want to play, everything works exactly as expected on both platforms. The deeper ownership features are there for players who want them and completely invisible for those who do not.


# Achievements and Earning Items

Greatness Must be Earned

No item in the in-game store provides a gameplay advantage. Weapons, skills, and ships are unlocked through play, not purchases, whether in real-time or turn-based modes.

Select cosmetics follow the same principle. Certain items can only be unlocked by completing specific challenges or milestones and are never available for purchase. These achievement-driven cosmetics are badges of effort, scarce by design and meaningful to earn.


# Evolving Cosmetics and Seasonal Rewards

Personalized Progression Through Evolving Items

**Cosmetics That Grow With You**

Warped Universe uses the Sui Network's object-based architecture to support evolving cosmetics. Items can gain new traits and attributes tied to gameplay milestones, meaning a cosmetic earned early in your journey can look different and carry more history by the end of a season.

**Seasonal Content**

Each season introduces its own story arc, new maps, new missions, and a fresh set of limited-time cosmetics. Once a season ends, its cosmetics are no longer available in the store, making them scarce and only obtainable on the secondary market afterward.

Premium Nexus Pass holders unlock exclusive seasonal rewards that cannot be purchased directly. Free Nexus Pass holders participate in seasonal progression but without access to premium rewards.

**Scarcity and Value**

Item rarity in Warped Universe is shaped by two factors. First, cosmetics and Nexus Pass rewards are only available during their respective seasons or in capped quantities, making them genuinely limited. Second, items that players never move to their Personal Vault remain outside the tradeable supply, naturally reducing circulation over time.


# Beamable

Elevating Gameplay, Simplifying Development

Beamable is a backend platform that handles the infrastructure side of live-service game development, including leaderboards, cloud saves, social features, and live ops tooling. Using Beamable lets our team focus on building the game rather than custom backend systems.

Beamable was recently acquired by Skillz, with the same team continuing to lead development under the new structure. Our integration remains fully supported.

For Warped Universe, Beamable handles in-game purchases, virtual currency systems, and scalable live updates, keeping the player experience responsive as the game grows.


# Sui Network Introduction

Built for Gaming at Scale

The Sui Network is a high performance infrastructure layer built for speed and low latency, created by former Meta engineers. It is designed to handle large transaction volumes reliably, making it well suited for gaming applications where performance and responsiveness matter.

Sui uses a Delegated Proof of Stake consensus model, allowing SUI holders to delegate voting power to validators. This improves network scalability while reducing energy demands compared to traditional consensus systems, aligning with our goal of building a sustainable long-term ecosystem.

Sui's vision extends beyond infrastructure. Innovations like the SuiPlay0X1 handheld console show the network's commitment to bringing its technology directly into players' hands in practical, tangible ways.


# Move Language

Optimized for Gaming

The Move programming language was originally developed for Meta's Diem project, then adopted and refined by Mysten Labs specifically for Sui, with a focus on gaming and high-performance applications.

Move uses a resource-oriented programming model that inherently prevents many common security vulnerabilities, making it a reliable foundation for managing in-game assets. Sui builds on this with an object-centric data structure that assigns a unique ID to every item in the game. This means each asset can be tracked, transferred, and updated independently, giving us greater flexibility to create more interactive and responsive player experiences.


# Why We Chose Sui

The Advantages of Building on Sui

We chose Sui because it lets players benefit from true item ownership without any of the complexity that usually comes with it. No crypto expertise required, no complicated setup, just a better experience underneath the surface of a game that plays like any other.

**Performance and Scalability**

Sui's architecture is built for parallel transaction processing, meaning the network handles high volumes of simultaneous activity without slowdowns. For a game with a live economy and active player base, that kind of throughput and low latency matters. The infrastructure keeps up with the game.

**Simplified Player Experience**

Sui's zkLogin feature lets players create and access accounts using familiar login methods like Google or Twitch. No seed phrases, no wallet setup, no friction. Players who want traditional wallet security with a seed phrase can still choose that path, but it is never required.

Devices like the SuiPlay0X1 take this further, giving players a dedicated platform where ownership features work natively without leaving the game environment at all.


# Closed-Loop Tokens

In-Game Economies On-Chain

Closed-loop tokens are digital currencies that operate exclusively within a specific ecosystem. Because they cannot be traded externally, their value stays stable and tied directly to in-game use, creating a predictable and player-friendly economy.

**Koju**

In Warped Universe, Koju functions as a closed-loop currency used solely for purchasing cosmetics and Nexus Passes. It behaves like any standard in-game currency. All transactions are handled seamlessly in the background, so players never need to interact with wallets or approve transactions manually.

This keeps the in-game economy stable and familiar regardless of what is happening in broader markets, while still giving us the infrastructure benefits of running it on the Sui Network.


# Sui Kiosk

A Player-Controlled Marketplace

Sui Kiosk is the trading infrastructure that powers Warped Universe's secondary market on Epic. Players can buy, sell, or rent cosmetics and Nexus Passes directly, with full control over how they store and manage their items.

This is where Premium Nexus Pass holders can sell or rent their passes to other players, keeping previous seasons accessible long after they end.


# Summary

Studios choose their infrastructure. Players choose their games. We chose Sui because its architecture is built for the demands of live game economies, fast transactions, stable in-game currency, and item ownership that works without friction.

For most Warped Universe players the network is invisible, which is exactly the point. For players who want to engage with ownership features, it is ready when they are.


# WARPED Token Introduction

Balancing Ownership in a Fair Ecosystem

WARPED is the native token of Warped Universe, built on the Sui Network. It connects players to the economy, the game's direction, and each other.

Token holders will have a voice in the game's future through curated governance proposals covering seasonal updates, new assets, and narrative direction. This is where the community moves from audience to co-creator.

The economic design is built to be self-sustaining. Player spending feeds back into the ecosystem through token burns and reinvestment into rewards and prize pools, creating alignment between the health of the game and the value of WARPED. When Warped Universe grows, the ecosystem grows with it.


# Utilities and Features

Allowing Holders to Benefit from Gameplay in More Ways Than One

### **Rewards and Burns**

15% of net revenue from Koju purchases and digital collectible royalties is used to purchase WARPED tokens, split evenly: 50% goes to the Rewards Vault, 50% is burned.

This graphic illustrates the revenue redistribution process for Koju purchases made with fiat or cryptocurrency, excluding WARPED.

<figure><img src="/files/TdovDNR7HmZWItDrooxT" alt=""><figcaption><p>This graphic illustrates the revenue redistribution process for Koju purchases made with fiat or cryptocurrency (excluding $WARPED).</p></figcaption></figure>

**Note:** :The 15% redistribution and 50/50 split are the default ratios and may be adjusted based on analytics, community feedback, and token holder votes.

#### Rewards:

WARPED rewards drive engagement through limited-time quests, campaigns, and activations. They are not part of the core gameplay loop. Players do not earn WARPED directly from missions or routine tasks.

#### Burns:

Burning WARPED counterbalances reward distribution and helps maintain a healthy token supply over time. Every purchase in Warped Universe actively contributes to this cycle, rewarding participants while keeping the ecosystem stable.

This graphic illustrates the full WARPED token utility and flow, showing how in-game revenue redistributes back into the ecosystem.

<figure><img src="/files/CdddDNWErAnBx1Y67IKu" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

###

### **Spending WARPED to Purchase Koju**

Players can exchange WARPED for Koju exclusively through the Warped Games website, alongside fiat and major cryptocurrencies including SUI and stablecoins. For players who hold WARPED, this is an additional way to put their tokens to work inside the game.

Koju purchases made with WARPED are distributed differently: 30% goes to the Treasury, 35% is burned, and 35% goes to the Rewards Vault.

This graphic illustrates the redistribution process for Koju purchases made with WARPED.

<figure><img src="/files/1zI4GjxvHQ7UqmbQn7vC" alt=""><figcaption><p>This graphic illustrates the revenue redistribution process for Koju purchases made with $WARPED.</p></figcaption></figure>

### **Voting on Design Proposals**

WARPED holders vote on curated design proposals put forward by the Warped Games team. Proposals can include seasonal updates, new in-game assets, lore additions, and other creative decisions that shape the direction of Warped Universe. This gives holders a real voice in how the game evolves season to season.

### **Exclusive Content**

WARPED holders unlock access to limited-edition skins, items, and social spaces within the game. These exclusives add value for holders without affecting gameplay balance.


# Tokenomics

Overview of WARPED Allocations and Distributions

**Token Distribution and Current State**

The WARPED token was originally launched on Ethereum and has since migrated to the Sui Network. During migration, 7.618% of the total supply was permanently burned, reducing overall circulation and strengthening the long-term supply balance.

The distribution below reflects the original allocation, which remains consistent post-migration:

* Private Sale: 10%
* Presale: 30%
* Team: 15%
* Launch: 8%
* Treasury: 37%

**Team Allocation**

15% of total supply was allocated to the team, vested over 12 months with a 3-month cliff followed by a linear release over the remaining 9 months. The majority of team tokens remain intact.

**Treasury**

Building and shipping Warped Universe over the past several years has required real investment. A significant portion of the treasury has been deployed toward development, operations, and community growth to get us to this point.

The treasury continues to support operations where needed. With Warped Universe now in Early Access, the game's live revenue model carries the primary load going forward. Koju purchases, Nexus Pass sales, and digital collectible royalties feed directly back into the ecosystem through the burns and rewards structure outlined above, creating a sustainable engine that grows with the player base.

&#x20;


# Market Opportunity Introduction

Warping Gaming

Our approach to game design and development reflects a deep understanding of player preferences and market trends. Warped Universe is not just built to adapt to these evolving demands but to lead and define what players will come to expect in the next generation of gaming experiences.


# The Surge in Popularity For Co-Op Games

Trends Supporting Warped Universe's Appeal

Co-op games are experiencing a strong surge in popularity, as evidenced by sales figures and player engagement. For example, despite only 5.7% of games on Steam offering co-op gameplay, they accounted for [36% of total units sold for new releases in 2023](https://vginsights.com/assets/reports/VGI_Rise_of_the_Co-Op_Games.pdf), with this trend increasing through 2024.

<figure><img src="/files/TYgpO4RLVoG9EoR3WEpm" alt=""><figcaption><p>Graphs showing the growing popularity of co-op games over time, highlighting their increasing share of new releases and total units sold. </p></figcaption></figure>

With these studies revealing that co-op titles are outperforming non-co-op games, with a staggering[ 1,313% more lifetime sales](https://www.gamesmarkt.de/business/cooperative-not-competitive-growing-popularity-of-co-op-games-on-steam-f6182f8a55d4f11e0482b1eff1a0ef51) for top-performing co-op games on Steam, studios are recognizing this increasing demand, resulting in more co-op titles being released year after year.&#x20;

<figure><img src="/files/oAOGaj2mGfqHUYrg55HO" alt=""><figcaption><p>Graph showing the growing popularity of co-op games, with a significant increase in lifetime sales for top-performing co-op titles compared to non-co-op games, alongside the steady rise in the number of co-op games released on Steam each year.</p></figcaption></figure>

### What's Fueling This Growth?

This rising interest in co-op games can be attributed to a variety of factors. One significant reason was highlighted by Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney, who noted, “[*What we’re seeing is a real trend where players are gravitating toward the really big games where they can play with more of their friends*](https://www.pcgamer.com/gaming-industry/the-games-industry-is-undergoing-a-generational-change-says-epic-ceo-tim-sweeney-a-lot-of-games-are-released-with-high-budgets-and-theyre-not-selling/),” emphasizing the growing desire for co-op gameplay within the gaming community.&#x20;

Additionally, the community-driven nature of co-op games fosters collaboration and social interaction, which in turn increases content creation opportunities. Streaming has become a major driving force in the gaming industry, with streamers capitalizing on collaborative content to provide more engaging experiences for their audiences.&#x20;

Good co-op games encourage word of mouth and organic awareness spread, delivering a natural hype cycle for a game. At the heart of successful games are the emotions they elicit from players. These feelings are intensified when playing with friends or as part of a team.&#x20;

Replayability is also crucial for engaging gameplay, especially in co-op games. While many single-player titles can become repetitive and lead to declines in player retention, co-op games inherently provide fresh experiences with each session. The dynamics of team interactions create new strategies and outcomes, encouraging players to return.

### Enhancing the Future of Co-Op Gaming

Warped Universe expands on the key features that make co-op gameplay so popular by focusing on dynamic replayability. The diverse mission types, procedural content generation, and the dynamics of light and gravity on gameplay shape the Warped Universe through constantly evolving game mechanics, ensuring players encounter new challenges and experiences every time they play. This keeps the game fresh and encourages cooperation, as players must adapt their strategies based on the changing environment and the collective goal of building out each solar system.

By creating a game where every decision matters, Warped Universe positions itself to attract players looking for meaningful and engaging experiences. This aligns with industry insights showing that replayability and social interaction are key factors in player retention.&#x20;


# Why a Multi-Genre Game is so Powerful

Appealing to a Wide Range of Players

Warped Universe's innovative design combines multiple popular game genres, appealing to a wide array of player preferences. By unifying these genres into a cohesive metagame, players can select their preferred playstyle for both ground and space missions, resulting in an unparalleled gaming experience that maximizes playability.

<figure><img src="/files/A1l4ccnkmL8I7x2QUb3C" alt=""><figcaption><p>Image showing all four game modes in Warped Universe - Work in Progress (Not Final). </p></figcaption></figure>

### Real-Time: On the Ground and in Space

Our real-time action modes offer thrilling gameplay similar to successful titles like Fortnite and Helldivers 2, the latter of which sold over [12 million units in just 12 weeks](https://www.vgchartz.com/article/460975/helldivers-2-sales-top-12-million-units-fastest-selling-playstation-title-ever/), becoming PlayStation’s fastest-selling title. This playstyle captivates players with its invigorating action, allowing them to jump straight into the heat of battle.

### Turn-Based: On the Ground and in Space

Drawing inspiration from classics like XCOM and Dungeons & Dragons, our turn-based game modes offer strategic gameplay for players who enjoy a more methodical approach. By integrating turn-based modes for both ground and flight gameplay, Warped Universe taps into one of the largest and most successful genres in gaming. For example, Dungeons & Dragons, with over 50 years of history, continues to grow its player base, attracting both newcomers and seasoned players alike. An estimated [50 million players](https://theconversation.com/50-years-on-dungeons-and-dragons-is-still-a-gaming-staple-whats-behind-its-monumental-success-223085) have engaged with the D\&D universe throughout its lifetime, and its deep, evolving lore keeps players immersed in an ever-expanding fantasy world.

### Combining the Best of Both&#x20;

By combining the best elements of real-time and turn-based gameplay, Warped Universe offers players both thrilling action and strategic depth in a seamless experience. This flexibility allows players to choose their preferred style for each mission, whether on console, PC, mobile, or tablet. With rich lore and storytelling at its core, Warped Universe cultivates an inclusive gaming community that caters to a diverse range of player preferences.


# Free-to-Play Model

Empowering Players in a F2P Economy

**The Path to Free-to-Play**

Warped Universe launches into Early Access at $9.99. The plan from day one is to transition to free-to-play after Early Access, following the model proven by some of the biggest games in the industry. Fortnite generated over $9 billion in its first two years. Candy Crush and Clash of Clans built billion-dollar businesses on the same foundation. The F2P model works when it is built around player motivation rather than exploitation.

**What Drives Players to Spend**

Four things consistently drive spending in F2P games, and Warped Universe is designed around all of them.

Smooth progression. Players spend when they want to remove friction, not when friction is manufactured. We prioritize a gameplay experience that earns purchases rather than forces them.

Social expression. Players buy cosmetics to express themselves and stand out. Warped Universe gives them the tools to personalize their experience and show off what they have earned.

Competition without pay-to-win. Gameplay-enhancing items are earned through play, never purchased. Players compete on skill, not spending.

Real value. Pricing is fair, promotions are meaningful, and free players have a genuine path to premium content through Koju earnings. Players invest when they feel respected.

**Why In-Game Spending Drives the Industry**

Games generate more revenue than film and music because they sustain engagement over time. Recurrent spending is the engine behind that. Take-Two's 2023 Q4 earnings showed recurrent consumer spending grew 94%, accounting for 79% of total revenue. In-game purchases are not a side feature, they are the business model.

**Ownership Changes the Equation**

Traditional F2P keeps player spending locked inside the game. The studio benefits, the player does not. Warped Universe changes this by letting players own what they earn and buy. Cosmetics and Nexus Passes on Epic can be traded or sold on secondary markets. Seasonal items that are no longer available in the store retain value because players can only get them from other players. Spending becomes an investment, not a sunk cost.


# Making Games Sustainable

Prioritizing Fun Over Financial Incentives

Two mechanics have damaged player trust in games over the past decade. Pay-to-win gives financial advantages to players who spend more, creating an uneven playing field. Play-to-earn turns games into jobs, where players grind for extraction until the economy collapses under its own weight.

Warped Universe avoids both. Gameplay-enhancing items are earned through skill and effort, never purchased. Ownership features add value for players who want them without affecting the experience for those who don't. The goal is a game people play because it's genuinely fun, not because they are chasing returns or trying to keep up with bigger spenders.


# Platforms and Devices

Get Warped on Any Major Platform or Device

Our multi-genre approach loses its potency if the game is limited to certain platforms or devices. That’s why Warped Universe will be available across all major platforms, beginning with the Epic Store and Steam, with aims to list on Google Play and the Apple Store. Furthermore, we plan to integrate with various devices, such as PC, Xbox, PlayStation, SuiPlay0X1, the Steam Deck, and mobile platforms like iOS and Android.

By embracing cross-platform accessibility, we aim to maximize our reach to the estimated [3 billion gamers worldwide](https://prioridata.com/number-of-gamers/).


# The Warped Games Team

United by Passion, Strengthened Over Time

Warped Games is a tight-knit group of veteran developers with nearly 30 years of collaborative experience. Our team has shipped titles including Lego Universe, Jumpgate, Dragons and Titans, and Auto Assault, spanning independent and AAA development across multiple eras of the industry.

Many of us came together through the Starl Metaverse project, building a spaceflight MMO that grew a substantial global community. That experience taught us how to build virtual worlds, foster player engagement, and integrate ownership features into a live game environment.

Discover more about our team by visiting our team page on our website: <https://warped.games/team/core>&#x20;


# Summary

**TL;DR**

Warped Universe is a co-op PvE sci-fi game built for players who want to explore, defend, upgrade, and own their experience. Here is what that means in practice.

**Gameplay First**

Choosing your genre before each mission, real-time action or turn-based tactics, puts players in control of how they engage. Every mission contributes to a living solar system that grows with the player base.

**Built to Play Without Barriers**

Warped Universe launches on Steam and Epic, with no pay-to-win mechanics, a free Nexus Pass for every player, and Koju earnable through gameplay. Ownership features are available for players who want them and invisible for those who don't.

**A Seasonal Game That Evolves**

Each season introduces new missions, maps, limited-edition cosmetics, and lore. WARPED token holders vote on design proposals, giving the community a real voice in where the game goes next.

**Infrastructure That Stays Out of the Way**

The Sui Network handles the economy and item ownership in the background. Players on Epic get access to full ownership features. Players on Steam get a clean traditional experience with Steam Marketplace trading. Either way the game just works.

**The Team**

Warped Games is a studio of veterans who have shipped games across independent and AAA titles. We built Warped Universe to be played for years, not seasons.

***Congratulations on making it this far. Now step through Celadon Gate, get in your ECHO armor, and join us on this unforgettable journey as we heed the Oracle's call to shape the Warped Universe.***

# Nexus站

Warped Universe 的核心

Nexus Station将是 Warped Universe 中玩家的中心枢纽，既是一个充满活力的社交、战略和行动基地，也彰显了预言者的智慧和第一批定居者的决心。

枢纽站的核心功能是作为行星建造器，通过利用居民（即玩家）收集的残渣物质（Residuum）构建新行星。

* **互动与社交空间：**&#x4F5C;为核心枢纽，枢纽站将提供互动空间，供玩家放松、社交，并分享冒险故事。

Nexus Station作为新文明对中心，承载着构建 Warped Universe， 的重任 它将为玩家提供一个聚集、制定战略以及从虚空的破坏力量中喘息的空间.


# 阵营

不同的道路，共同的目标

在 Warped Universe 中，光与重力不仅仅是力量，更是存在的原始实体。与地球上稳定的节奏不同，它们在这里以一种动荡、可塑的状态存在，提供了几乎无限的宇宙潜力。

光与重力的平衡对 Warped Universe 至关重要，也是玩家对抗无数威胁的关键。以下是利用这些力量的两大阵营：

### The Luminaries

受到对宇宙奥秘的无限好奇心和揭示未知的渴望驱动，光明者代表了太空中冒险与追求知识的精神。他们认为 Warped Universe 并非毁灭的残骸，而是一幅等待探索和理解的无限可能画布。

预言者档案中发现的星图是他们的催化剂。这些星图展示了 Warped Universe 的已知和未知区域，点燃了这些探索者的想象力。

这一群体因无限的好奇心而聚集，正式组织成光明者，致力于探索、外交、知识的追求和新技术的发现。他们的座右铭是\*\*“照亮未知”\*\*，成为站内志同道合者的灯塔。灵感源于光穿越太空的方式，他们致力于扩展知识与宇宙的存在。

### The Foundationalists

在 Warped Universe 迷人的宇宙魅力中，有人提倡更注重自身的力量建设。这一理念催生了一个名为基石者的群体。

基石者致力于确保枢纽站不仅仅是一个中转站，而是一个安全、知识与社区的堡垒。他们认为站点是为那些因宇宙剧变而流离失所或受到影响的众生提供庇护和归属的避难所。在他们的愿景中，枢纽站应具备接纳和维持所有寻求庇护者的能力。

团结在座右铭“根基稳健，力量永恒”之下，The Foundationalists强调对安全与可持续性的承诺。

### 脆弱宇宙中的力量平衡

虽然Luminaries和Foundationalists可能有不同的目标和方法，但他们理解合作与平衡的重要性。他们之间的冲突很少，因为他们认识到过度偏向某一方可能导致不稳定，进而产生迷幻且破坏性的环境，影响所有玩家的游戏体验。当玩家过度偏重于使用光或引力这两种力量时，会导致难以预料的混乱事件，改变游戏景观和玩法。然而，在必要时调整平衡并非不可取，因为这样的变化可以增强或转化能力，从而带来独特的战术优势。


# 虚无

混乱背后的无声力量

虚空存在于 Warped Universe 斑斓混乱的对立面。它既不恶意也不仁慈；它只是存在，一直试图将其视为“噪音”的一切收回，恢复到未被打扰的寂静。

<figure><img src="/files/QrQAmQDHUEt0C73LgtQX" alt=""><figcaption><p>《Warped Universe》中的虚空图像 - 工作进度中（非最终版本）。</p></figcaption></figure>

通过反映其非存在本质的实体表现，这些生物无形且具有适应性，会对试图重建 Warped Universe 的存在做出反应。它们不参与传统的冲突，而是通过消耗意志和希望的策略来使对手屈服于绝望。

虚空的目标简单却深远：将 Warped Universe 恢复为纯粹潜能的状态——一个除了原始可能性本质之外一无所有的世界。它将预言者的重建尝试视为对存在自然秩序的扭曲反抗。虚空相信，通过抹去一切，它将恢复平衡，创造一个既无痛苦也无喜悦的阴沉均衡。


# 介绍

由玩家打造，为玩家而生

在 Warped Universe 中，玩家是推动宇宙发展的核心力量，他们的行动和决策将塑造这个世界。我们的设计理念以提供终极自由和灵活性为中心，旨在为各种游戏风格提供多样化的体验。无论玩家偏好战略规划、快节奏动作，还是两者的结合，Warped Universe 都能根据他们的需求进行适配。

\
技能驱动的成长机制是 Warped Universe 设计的核心，确保了一个公平且平衡的生态系统。区块链技术的集成旨在提升玩家体验，让玩家拥有外观和可定制物品的所有权，但不会在游戏玩法中带来任何经济优势。这种设计确保了 Warped Universe 始终是一种有意义且令人愉悦的体验，在这里玩家可以成长、个性化自己的角色，并决定宇宙的走向。


# 玩家vs环境

协作式玩法

无论是单人还是合作模式，玩家都将面对 虚空（The Void）这一强大的敌人。在第零季中，虚空将作为主要反派势力登场。这些敌对力量具有类似于玩家的特质，其强度、数量和装备各不相同，确保每次任务都充满动态且富有挑战性，同时每次都带来全新的体验。

为了适应不同的游戏风格，任务将提供多种难度级别，无论是新手还是资深玩家，都能找到适合自己的挑战。随着宇宙状态的不断演变，每个任务都会呈现独特的变化，没有两次体验是完全相同的，从而保持游戏的新鲜感、奖励感和沉浸感。

为了取得成功，玩家必须策略性地利用光与重力的力量，在长期计划和即时战术之间找到平衡。这些选择不仅影响宇宙的演变，也构成了游戏的核心可重复玩法循环。


# 星球与设施

构建、扩展与守护 Warped 宇宙

在 Warped Universe 的元游戏中，建造新星球与设施是核心玩法，推动着宇宙不断前进。每个赛季，玩家需要合作扩展太阳系，通过建造星球和关键设施来推动科技发展。这些设施将为玩家提供解锁新技术、制造新装备、提升技能或属性、降低特定资源成本等机会，同时进一步发展宇宙，从中所有玩家都能获益。

<figure><img src="/files/fOyIHh84vD3rVDu6EmeV" alt=""><figcaption><p>《Warped Universe》中的图像 - 工作进度中（非最终版本）。</p></figcaption></figure>

Residuum（残渣）是 Warped Universe 进步的基础。玩家通过完成任务收集 Residuum，用于建造星球和设施。然而，Residuum 并不是统一分配的，而是基于玩家选择的任务进行分配。例如，一项任务可能专注于建造研究设施以解锁新装备，而另一项任务则可能致力于收集 Residuum 以建造全新星球。这意味着玩家选择的每个任务都会对太阳系产生深远影响，赋予玩家真实的决策权，其行动会对 Warped Universe 的演化产生直接且持久的影响。

然而，这些创造并非牢不可破。虚空（The Void）作为永恒的威胁，将试图摧毁玩家建造的星球与设施。如果这些结构未能得到妥善防御，它们所提供的技术、增益及内容可能会被完全抹去，之前的努力也将化为乌有。

这种动态机制赋予玩家真正的主导权，任务选择与合作努力将直接影响宇宙的发展轨迹。成功与失败不再只是简单的游戏结果，而是实实在在的变化，为玩家营造一个不断演化的环境，有时让人欣喜，有时又令人惋惜。


# 选择您的游戏风格

无缝融合多种游戏类型

秉承我们对多样化游戏体验的热爱，Warped Universe 开创性地将多种游戏类型整合到同一个环境中。玩家可以根据任务选择自己偏好的游戏风格，无论是实时动作还是回合制策略。两种模式都使用相同的武器、技能、伤害系统和机制，为玩家提供流畅的过渡，提升沉浸感、参与度，并扩大游戏的吸引力。

### 实时动作：地面或飞行中

作为第三人称动作射击玩法，这种风格迎合了追求快节奏刺激的玩家，非常适合 PC 或主机上的沉浸式体验。

<figure><img src="/files/23tNMPWJWrCdSKBH3qsJ" alt=""><figcaption><p>展示《Warped Universe》中地面和飞行实时动作模式的图像 - 工作进度中（非最终版本）。</p></figcaption></figure>

### 回合制策略：地面或飞行中

这种俯视角玩法更适合喜欢战术深度的玩家，同时也让 Warped Universe 更加适配于移动设备和平板设备的用户群体。

<figure><img src="/files/AvtuCbGeC9o2sHBjb29a" alt=""><figcaption><p>展示《Warped Universe》中地面和飞行回合制战略模式的图像 - 工作进度中（非最终版本）。</p></figcaption></figure>

### 按照你的方式玩

这种俯视角玩法更适合喜欢战术深度的玩家，同时也让 Warped Universe 更加适配于移动设备和平板设备的用户群体。 通过允许玩家选择参与每项任务的方式，Warped Universe 满足了多种游戏风格的需求，并鼓励社区间的合作。这种创新方法汲取了实时游戏（如《堡垒之夜》和《Helldivers 2》）的核心机制，以及回合制策略游戏（如《龙与地下城》和《幽浮》）的成功元素，使 Warped Universe 对多元化的玩家群体更具吸引力。

展望未来，其他游戏类型可能在发布后通过玩家投票和代币持有者的建议陆续加入。这种不断演化的多类型设计，确保了 Warped Universe 始终动态发展，并与游戏市场趋势和玩家喜好保持一致。


# 选择你的任务

塑造宇宙的决策

在 Warped Universe 中，任务是元游戏的核心，每次任务的选择都会直接影响宇宙的平衡、扩展与存续。在 Nexus Station（核心站），玩家可以通过实时的 3D 太阳系地图，动态且直观地追踪星球进度、设施建设情况以及受虚空威胁的区域。该功能通过实时数据为玩家提供战略决策的基础，让每次游戏都能留下深远的影响。

### 任务如何影响宇宙

玩家的选择将融入更广泛的元游戏中，既影响个人进展，也改变宇宙的状态。以下是一些任务如何影响个人成长与元游戏进展的示例：

* **收集 Residuum：**&#x52A0;速新星球、设施与技术的开发，同时通过任务奖励提升个人成长。
* **护守资产：**&#x4FDD;护星球、前哨站与设施免受虚空攻击，确保其持续功能，对宇宙与个人发展至关重要。
* **护航防御：**&#x4E3A;前哨站与设施运送关键补给和增援，维持长期生存与成功。
* **平衡光与重力：**&#x5B8C;成任务时选择支持Luminaries或Foundationalists，将宇宙的平衡向光或重力倾斜，从而对所有玩家产生正面或负面的影响。

这些任务示例表明，玩家的选择不仅会影响个人成长，还会塑造整个宇宙的进程。Warped Universe 是一个脆弱而动态的环境，需要通过集体决策与合作维持平衡，而非单纯依靠个人野心。

### 类型和游戏玩法多样性

如“选择你的游戏风格”中所述，玩家可以自由决定如何完成每项任务。某些任务更适合回合制策略，提供战术深度；而另一些则更适合实时动作，为玩家带来沉浸式的紧张刺激。这种多样性确保每次任务都有独特体验，并为玩家根据自己偏好的游戏风格量身定制游戏过程提供了灵活性。

### 专为协作而设计

Warped Universe 中的任务旨在促进协作，目标专为合作玩法设计。玩家可以联手应对更大的威胁，如虚空入侵，或完成诸如建造星球以发掘新资源与技术的宏伟目标。通过共同努力完成共享目标，玩家不仅能获得更大的奖励，还能增强 PvE 协作玩法的整体影响力，充分体现团队合作的价值。


# 选择你的技能

适应与进化你的游戏风格

Warped Universe 中的技能设计旨在提供适应性，让玩家根据面对的挑战调整自己的能力。无论是为了某项任务选择光明派还是根基派，玩家都可以尝试各种技能，这种灵活性确保玩家不会因最初的决定而受限，可以随着游戏风格的演变或特定目标的需求不断调整策略。

### 将技能与任务适配

玩家选择的技能将取决于他们的偏好或任务目标。例如，在面对虚空敌人大军时，玩家可能选择支持根基派，释放重力炸弹这样的技能，或者选择光明派，利用更符合策略的能力。这样的灵活性确保玩家拥有多种选择，以迎合各种游戏风格与喜好，打造更加有趣且引人入胜的体验。

### 技能选择的影响因素

技能选择不仅受任务类型的影响，还受到 Warped Universe 动态环境的影响：

* **设施增强：**&#x65B0;建或升级的设施可能增强特定技能的效果，或解锁独特能力。
* **动态宇宙：**&#x5B87;宙中光与重力的当前平衡状态可能会影响玩家的技能选择。例如，当宇宙偏向光明或重力时，某些技能可能变得更有用。

通过允许玩家适应自己的技能并针对每项任务探索新策略，Warped Universe 鼓励玩家不断尝试不同的玩法风格，创造出更动态、更吸引人的游戏体验。这种高度的灵活性旨在提升玩家的留存率和长期乐趣。


# 选择装备

设备类别与进阶系统

在 Warped Universe 中，装备是塑造游戏体验的核心元素。它为玩家提供灵活性和个性化设置，满足不同的游戏风格和目标，同时让玩家在宇宙中脱颖而出。

装备通过游戏内获取的 Artifractal Cores 解锁，奖励玩家的成长并确保公平平衡的生态系统。有关装备获取和定制的更多信息，请参阅“任务奖励与玩家成长”章节。

### 类别和分类

设备被组织成广泛的类别，每个类别都包含定义其角色和功能的特定分类。例如：

武器：

* 重型步枪
* 轻型步枪
* 狙击步枪
* 霰弹枪
* 榴弹发射器

护甲:&#x20;

* 重甲
* 轻甲

&#x20;飞船：

* 翼组件
* 推进组件

注：以上物品仅为示例，不代表最终游戏设定。

### 基础装备和定制

每个分类的装备均从一个基础等级开始，随着玩家的进阶逐步升级和优化。这种设计允许玩家对装备进行广泛的定制和个性化，使其能够适应不同的游戏风格、提升性能，并展现个人特色。


# 选择属性

定制属性

<figure><img src="/files/LlJNgAzImwkZ4c9bEECi" alt=""><figcaption><p>《Warped Universe》中的图像 - 工作进度中（非最终版本）。</p></figcaption></figure>

属性是定义和提升装备性能的升级选项。通过任务奖励获得的 Sparks（火花）可用于解锁属性升级，为玩家提供灵活性，能够根据自身偏好或任务需求调整武器、护甲和飞船的性能。

Sparks 会根据它们可应用的装备类别和分类而有所不同:

* **伤害增幅：**&#x589E;加固定值或百分比的伤害输出。
* **暴击强化：**&#x63D0;高暴击率或暴击伤害。
* **防御修正：**&#x589E;强生命值、护盾回复速度或特定伤害类型的抗性。

注：以上内容仅为示例，不代表最终游戏设定。\
\
有关如何通过 Sparks 及其潜力来获得并应用属性的详细信息，请参阅“任务奖励与玩家成长”章节。


# 选择外观与定制

通过拥有权彰显个性

外观与定制功能让玩家能够展现独特个性，使 Warped Universe 的体验真正属于自己。与功能性属性不同，外观专注于个性化，提供多样选项以在视觉上区分玩家的装备与角色。

所有外观和定制选项都将作为 NFT 存储于玩家的游戏仓库（Game Vault）中，并可选择提取到个人仓库（Personal Vault）。这一设计让玩家对其物品拥有完整的所有权，并可在二级市场上进行交易。有关更多细节，请参阅“Warped Universe 的所有权”章节。

### 获取外观和定制的方法

Warped Universe 中的外观与定制仅通过以下两种方式获取：解锁或购买，两者互不交叉。无论通过何种方式获取，所有外观都通过游戏仓库提供完整的所有权。

#### **解锁**

某些外观只能通过游戏进程解锁，包括：

* **战斗通行证：**&#x901A;过战斗通行证等级奖励解锁。
* **季节活动或战役：**&#x901A;过参与或完成季节活动与战役获取。
* **成就奖励：**&#x901A;过完成个人里程碑解锁。
* **特殊任务与挑战：**&#x901A;过完成随机任务或挑战获得。

#### **购买**

游戏内商城将提供多种外观与定制选项，可使用 Koju 购买。这些物品仅在赛季内的特定时间段提供，确保稀缺性。

### 外观与定制类型：

* **装备皮肤：**&#x4E3A;武器、护甲和飞船提供独特设计与主题。
* **附件和效果：**&#x6DFB;加美学增强，如全息瞄准器、发光特效或元素效果。
* **角色和游戏内的定制：**&#x4E2A;性化角色外观，包括表情、独特光环、称号和骰子外观等。


# 季节性开发

随赛季变动的动态体验

Warped Universe 处于动态变化的状态，随着时间推移，游戏体验也会不断演变。

在游戏发布后，开发周期将以季节为单位，每个赛季都会带来重大变化：

* 新星系：每个赛季将引入一个新星系，带来新的任务、星球和技术。
* 故事更新：添加新的物种及其独特的环境、敌人、装饰与武器，进一步丰富游戏世界观。
* 限量版收藏品：每个赛季都会推出新的限量版外观，包括角色、飞船、武器等。前一赛季的物品虽然仍可使用，但不再开放购买。
* 视觉变化：游戏的美术风格将随每个赛季而更新，引入新的星球和独特的星系动态，确保视觉体验始终新鲜且引人入胜。

季节性的开发会直接影响游戏核心内容。通过整合 Web 3.0 功能，Warped Universe 的游戏设计将由玩家和代币持有者的意见共同驱动，如“设计提案投票”章节中所述。这种动态发展模式确保了游戏的长期吸引力和创新性。


# 引言

基于实力的玩家成长机制：为了有趣且公平的游戏体验

《Warped Universe》的任务奖励设计旨在保持玩家的参与感、激励性和战略性，同时确保游戏生态系统的公平性，避免“氪金即胜”的现象。所有能增强游戏性的道具均通过游戏玩法获取，确保技能、努力和策略是推动玩家成长的核心动力。

通过专注于简洁、基于实力的奖励循环，我们赋予玩家对自身成长的选择权，同时避免了物品和资源的泛滥。

为了进一步确保公平性，任务奖励中直接影响玩家成长的物品和资源均保留在链下，无法与其他玩家交易，从而保持平衡并确保游戏体验由玩家的技术驱动。


# 残余能量（Residuum）

永恒的残骸

残余能量是推动《Warped Universe》中玩家成长的核心资源。在任务中收集的残余能量不仅是个人进步的关键，还推动了整个宇宙的成长。这种多功能资源将每个任务与重要成果相连。

### 个人使用：赋能玩家成长

残余能量使玩家能够塑造在《Warped Universe》中的旅程：

* **任务结束奖励：**&#x73A9;家可在任务结束时分配残余能量以获取奖励，如“次元晶核（Nexite）”、“火花（Sparks）”、“分形核心（Artifractal Cores）”或“战斗通行证经验值（Battle Pass XP）”。
* **任务内功能：**&#x73A9;家可在任务中使用残余能量强化某些技能，从而在关键时刻获得战略优势，或将其转化为弹药以应急。

这种双重用途带来了有意义的选择：是立即使用残余能量以获得任务优势，还是保存下来用于任务后的长期成长？

注意：残余能量无法存储或在任务间携带。玩家只能在任务期间或结束时使用收集到的残余能量。

### 集体用途：推进宇宙发展

残余能量还推动《Warped Universe》的整体发展：

* 建设星球与设施：在“枢纽（Nexus）”中，残余能量用于建设新星球与设施，从而通过影响整体元游戏为玩家解锁新的游戏玩法。例如，建造一个新研究实验室可以解锁新技术，提供高级装备或强大的升级选项，增强所有玩家的游戏策略。
* 强化社区目标：作为共享资源，残余能量确保每次任务都为所有玩家的集体进步做出贡献。大型项目（如建设新星球与设施）需要所有任务中收集的特定数量的残余能量。这些共享目标将鼓励合作，并激励社区为《Warped Universe》的发展共同努力。


# 分形核心（Artifractal Cores）

进步的核心

分形核心允许玩家获取新装备（如武器、防具或飞船组件）。分形核心具有不同的稀有度，其稀有度决定了装备的基础属性和可应用的属性数量，结合了战略选择与探索的乐趣。

### 获取分型核心

分形核心作为玩家任务结束奖励的一部分，通过分配残余能量获取。这样，装备的获取直接与玩家的投入和当前需求挂钩。

### 分形核心的稀有度及其对装备的影响

分形核心的稀有度决定了装备的随机化基础属性范围和可应用属性的数量。较高稀有度的核心提供更强、更丰富的属性机会，而较低稀有度的核心提供更基础的范围与属性。

**示例：**

玩家使用低级分形核心生成一把步枪，可能的结果包括：

* 3个随机属性，例如+10%伤害、+5%射速和+3%精准度。

如果玩家对这些属性不满意，可以再消耗一个分形核心重新生成该步枪，试图获得更高范围的属性。较高稀有度的分形核心能提升生成更多属性（如4–5个）以及更高的属性数值（如+15%伤害或+10%精准度）的机会。

注：本例中的数字仅用于说明目的，并不代表最终确定的游戏规范。

### 总结

玩家通过任务奖励获取分形核心，在Nexus的专用工作台选择要制作的装备类型，并花费次元晶核（Nexite）完成制作过程。分形核心的稀有度决定了随机化属性的范围，玩家还可以再消耗一个分形核心，尝试获得更优化的基础属性配置。


# 火花（Sparks）与潜力值（Potential）

增强破坏潜力

所有装备分类都从一个基础版本开始。分形核心决定了该装备的随机基础属性，而火花（Sparks）使玩家能够根据目标定制和强化属性。

每个火花都是特定属性的，这意味着它只对装备施加一个预定义的增强效果。例如：

* 一个火花可能增加 +5 点伤害
* 一个火花可能增加 +3 点精准度

火花提供了有意义的进阶路径，允许玩家精细调整装备——无论是优化特定属性、适应个人玩法，还是为特定目标做好准备。结合可以改变装备外观的装饰品（Cosmetics），火花赋予玩家对装备性能和外观的完全控制权。

### 获得火花（Sparks）

火花是玩家完成任务后的一部分奖励。通过分配残渣（Residuum），玩家可以选择获得火花以及其他资源，以便为未来的升级做准备。

### 使用火花升级装备

在 Warped Universe 中升级装备需要管理三个关键组件：

1. **火花：**&#x51B3;定所应用属性或效果的升级材料。
2. **奈克石（Nexite）：**&#x5C06;火花应用到装备上所需的资源。
3. **潜能（Potential）：**&#x88C5;备上有限的资源，限制可以应用的火花数量。

### **升级过程的一个示例：**

1. 在任务中收集残渣，并在任务结束时选择用它来兑换火花奖励。
2. 前往Nexus中的专用工作台，选择要升级的装备。
3. 应用特定的火花以强化所需的属性或效果。
4. 支付所需的奈克石费用完成升级。
5. 每次应用火花会随机消耗一定数量的装备潜能，从而限制可应用的总增强数量。

### 潜能：升级的平衡机制

与分形核心确定基础属性的方式类似，火花通过消耗一定数量的潜能引入了随机化元素。这种机制增加了策略上的紧张感，促使玩家仔细考虑何时应用火花以及是否需要重置装备。

示例：

某玩家为一件最大潜能值为20的武器应用一个 +5 伤害的火花。该火花消耗了4点潜能，剩余潜能为16点。每次火花消耗的潜能数量在一定范围内随机生成，玩家无法预测后续火花会消耗多少潜能。

注：示例中的数值仅用于说明，不代表游戏最终设定。

### 重置装备的潜能

如果玩家对应用火花所消耗的潜力不满意，他们可以选择通过花费Nexite和人工核心来重置设备的潜力。重置将删除所有应用的火花，它们已燃烧，无法恢复。玩家不能删除单个的火花，而只能同时删除所有的火花。

这一系统引入了有意义的权衡，玩家需要在重置的成本与之前升级的成果之间做出抉择。


# 奈克石（Nexite）

推动装备进阶

奈克石是《Warped Universe》中实现奖励和进阶的主要资源。作为获取和强化装备所需的关键材料，奈克石通过富有意义的游戏玩法帮助玩家提升能力。由于奈克石用于提升游戏机制，必须通过游戏内获得，无法通过购买获取。

### 奈克石的获取方式

玩家可以通过完成任务并分配任务中收集的残渣（Residuum）来兑换奈克石作为奖励的一部分。

### 奈克石的用途

奈克石帮助玩家在 Nexus 中自定义、强化和优化装备：

1. 使用分形核心（Artifractal Core）在工作台使用分形核心制作新装备时，需要消耗奈克石。
2. 使用火花（Sparks）将火花应用于武器、护甲或飞船时需要消耗奈克石，以解锁新的属性、效果或提升性能。
3. 重置装备的潜能（Potential）如果玩家对装备应用的火花或潜能的消耗感到不满意，可以通过消耗奈克石和分形核心重置装备，使其恢复到基础属性和潜能值。


# 战斗通行证经验值（Battle Pass XP）

加速战斗通行证的进度

加速战斗通行证的进度

《Warped Universe》中的战斗通行证为玩家提供了一个结构化的奖励路径，玩家通过完成任务和进阶解锁自定义内容。战斗通行证分为免费（Free）和高级（Premium）两种，提供丰富的奖励，主要集中在外观定制和内容解锁，确保进阶公平且基于玩家技能。

### 获取额外的战斗通行证经验值

玩家完成任务后总能获得战斗通行证经验值，确保其逐步推进通行证的奖励阶段。然而，作为任务奖励的一部分，玩家可以选择分配残渣以兑换额外经验值，从而更快地完成战斗通行证的进度。

有关战斗通行证及其独特功能的更多详细描述，请参阅《Warped Universe》的所有权章节。


# 总结

为平衡且意义深远的进阶体验而设计

<figure><img src="/files/CdlOReQEoct0qJmRenAU" alt=""><figcaption><p>《Warped Universe》标准任务结束奖励流程图。</p></figcaption></figure>

《Warped Universe》的任务奖励系统旨在提供可持续、公平且令人满意的进阶体验。通过对物品稀有性、资源使用和升级机会的精心平衡，确保每一份奖励都具备意义，并且进阶完全由玩家的努力和策略决定。

随着开发进程的推进，这些机制将持续受到监控、优化和调整，以确保所有玩家都能获得平衡且愉快的游戏体验。我们的目标是构建一个随着玩家反馈不断进化，并经得起时间考验的进阶系统。


# 概述

赛季活动、战役和特殊挑战

在《Warped Universe》中，WARPED 代币和独特装饰品为玩家提供了超越核心玩法的机会。这些奖励不属于常规的进阶系统，而是通过特别活动、战役或特殊挑战获得的。

这些内容通过鼓励玩家探索与协作，丰富游戏体验，提升趣味性和互动性。无论是完成集体目标、参与限时任务，还是偶然发现隐藏内容，这些奖励都能为玩家增添成就感，并为社区带来更多活力和专属回忆。

所有这些奖励都基于链上技术。玩家需要将个人金库与游戏金库绑定，才能提取、交易或使用它们。


# 活动

奖励协作

活动旨在将社区玩家聚集在一起，共同完成对《Warped Universe》具有重要影响的里程碑任务。这些里程碑可能包括：

• 建造新的星球或设施

• 消灭指定数量的敌人

• 完成其他大规模目标

当活动结束后，所有参与的玩家将根据个人的努力和贡献获得 WARPED 代币和/或装饰奖励。

活动专属的装饰品将具有独特性，无法通过游戏内商店购买。这些装饰品不仅是《Warped Universe》历史的一部分，还可供玩家自由保留、交易或出售。


# 战役

奖励参与

战役是为了激励玩家在特定时间内参与某些游戏模式、地图或任务而设计的。这些战役通常与新地图、新模式或新任务的发布同步，旨在引导玩家体验《Warped Universe》的多样化内容。 完成战役目标的玩家将获得 WARPED 代币和/或装饰奖励，这些奖励可由玩家自由保留、交易或使用。


# 任务和挑战

奖励探索与偶然性

在特定时期，《Warped Universe》还将推出一系列趣味性的单次任务，让玩家通过探索、解谜或任务完成获取奖励。例如：

• 玩家可能在任务中发现需要解读的 Nyzrak 古文

• 或在地图中找到隐藏的谜题线索

这些稀有事件为玩家提供了一次性获得 WARPED 代币或装饰奖励的机会。

<figure><img src="/files/jljTif7f516e9B0cdZ6t" alt=""><figcaption><p>《Warped Universe》中的图像，展示了与Sui合作举办的有趣的Nyzrak替换密码竞赛。</p></figcaption></figure>

由于地图是通过程序随机生成的，这些独特事件也会随机出现，并不会在特定任务或时间中固定触发，为玩家旅程增添了更多的惊喜和不确定性。


# 引言

科幻题材的新“Warped”风格

科幻世界依赖引人注目的视觉效果来展现其对未来的想象。在《Warped Universe》中，我们更进一步，将经典科幻的熟悉元素与独特的迷幻风格相融合。每一个细节都经过精心设计，让玩家沉浸在一个既神秘又广阔的宇宙中，使《Warped Universe》的内容以其独特的氛围，立即抓住玩家的目光并留下深刻印象。


# 视觉平衡

未来主义与经典风格的交融

平衡是《Warped Universe》一切设计的核心。从故事情节到游戏机制，再到视觉呈现，平衡贯穿始终。无论是游戏宇宙中光与重力的平衡，还是玩家输入与开发者创意的互动，所有设计都致力于实现一种和谐的统一。我们的目标是将创新与熟悉感完美结合，确保游戏的每个方面都能带来连贯且引人入胜的体验。

在项目初期阶段，我们的团队深入探讨了自己最喜欢的媒体风格和主题，包括电影、游戏、专辑封面、绘画以及各种艺术形式。这些讨论经常让我们意识到一个共同点：团队最受启发的，是概念艺术中所展现的原始创造力。我们并没有直接借鉴成熟作品的风格，而是提出了一个问题：如果概念艺术中独特的美学能够在游戏中栩栩如生，会是什么样子？

这个问题促使我们深入探索游戏中的画意环境，以及这种风格在应用时的可行性和局限性。最终，我们确立了一条关键的视觉规则：迷幻风格、画意般的环境与清晰鲜明的人物设计形成对比，以实现平衡。 当角色设计精致且充满活力时，能够突显环境的艺术特色；反之，当环境具有独特的水彩或概念艺术风格时，也能让角色及其装饰更加突出。

<figure><img src="/files/61f1BdZzabEznaAZYjZM" alt=""><figcaption><p>《Warped Universe》中的图像 - 工作进度中（非最终版本）。</p></figcaption></figure>

通过这种有意的对比，将尖端图形技术与手绘、桌面游戏风格的美学魅力融合，每一个游戏场景都既能唤起玩家独特的惊叹感，又能保持视觉的清晰与焦点。


# 虚幻引擎5

用虚幻引擎构建宇宙

虽然AI协助了早期的概念设计阶段，但《Warped Universe》的最终实现则通过虚幻引擎5完成。这款引擎以其尖端技术与可扩展性而闻名。我们的团队在使用虚幻引擎方面拥有丰富经验，能够充分利用其强大功能，呈现视觉震撼且沉浸感极强的世界。

### Nanite与Lumen技术

• Lumen实时光照：实现了动态的真实光照与反射效果，以沉浸式的阴影与氛围光照让游戏世界栩栩如生。

### 为沉浸感而生

通过虚幻引擎5，我们能够创造动态且响应迅速的世界，从高级物理效果到高保真图形的每个元素都经过精心优化，为流畅的游戏体验服务。我们的团队深谙虚幻引擎的能力，能够将其发挥到极致，为现代玩家带来高品质的体验，同时忠实于我们的艺术愿景。

### 程序化内容生成

虚幻引擎5的程序化内容生成功能使我们能够基于手工制作的资产动态创建独特的星球、任务与环境。我们并非生成随机内容，而是应用定制规则，确保每一次体验既独特又保持高质量设计水准。

对于玩家来说，这意味着没有两次任务或星球是完全相同的。地形、目标和挑战会随着每次访问不断演变，让探索保持新鲜与不可预测性。随着每个赛季引入新主题、新物种和新环境，程序化内容生成为《Warped Universe》的玩法增添了更多多样性。这种方法确保了动态且不断变化的宇宙，同时简化了我们小型雄心团队的开发流程。


# 引言

在公平生态系统中平衡所有权

$WARPED 是我们在 **Sui 网络**上的原生代币，是 **Warped Universe** 的核心支柱，用于驱动专属功能、创作影响力以及由玩家主导的繁荣经济体系。

通过 $WARPED，玩家可以积极塑造游戏的未来，参与对设计提案的投票，影响赛季更新、新资产添加和关键叙事元素的决策。

循环经济设计确保了玩家的消费直接为生态系统做出贡献，强化了《Warped Universe》的成功与 $WARPED 代币使用之间的关联性。


# 功能与用途

为持有者提供多元化游戏体验

### 奖励与销毁：将增长与可持续性结合

《Warped Universe》的成功将通过一种收入再分配模式，直接支持 $WARPED 代币生态系统。来自 Koju 购买和 NFT 特许权使用费的净收入中，有 15% 将被用于回购 $WARPED 代币，并按以下方式进行分配：

• 50% 注入奖励金库（Rewards Vault），作为对持有者的奖励。

• 50% 进行销毁（Burn），以减少代币供应量，从而提升代币的稀缺性和长期价值。

<figure><img src="/files/AWVJWLINzIwhgmUvmWPv" alt=""><figcaption><p>这张图展示了使用法币或加密货币（不包括$WARPED）购买Koju时的收入再分配过程。</p></figcaption></figure>

***注意：** 15% 的净收入再分配和 50/50 的销毁-奖励分配比例将作为默认比例，但可能根据新的分析数据、社区反馈以及 $WARPED 代币持有者的投票进行调整。*

#### **奖励**

$WARPED 奖励将通过限时任务、活动或特别行动成为激励玩家的重要驱动因素。它们不会在常规游戏玩法中反复出现，玩家不会通过完成任务或日常活动直接获得 $WARPED。

#### **销毁**&#x20;

销毁 $WARPED 是确保代币生态系统可持续性的关键机制，通过减少因奖励分配可能导致的代币过度供给，从而保持健康的供应平衡，巩固生态系统的稳定性和长期发展潜力。

这一双重机制（奖励与销毁）确保了《Warped Universe》中的每一笔游戏内购买都会积极促进生态系统的可持续发展。在奖励参与者的同时，维护经济平衡，为整个生态注入活力。

以下是 $WARPED 代币的用途和流通可视化图，展示了游戏内购买收入如何重新分配，以强化生态系统并提升 $WARPED 的实用性。

<figure><img src="/files/HKMmTtfI36XToLh4Ieaf" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

### 质押WARPED，以赢得Koju

持有者可质押 WARPED 代币来赚取 Koju，这是《Warped Universe》的游戏内货币，用于购买装饰品和赛季通行证。Koju 是专为游戏内使用设计的闭环货币，强化了玩家参与与个性化体验的核心目标。质押机制的详细信息将在上线前公布。

### 用WARPED购买Koju

玩家可以通过官网使用 WARPED 兑换 Koju，也可选择使用法币或其他主要加密货币（如 $SUI 或稳定币）购买。此功能为 Web3 玩家提供了额外方式将代币用于游戏生态系统，而 Web2 玩家则可能更倾向于使用法币支付。

对于使用 $WARPED 进行的购买，资金将以不同方式分配：

• 30% 注入国库（Treasury），

• 35% 用于销毁（Burn），

• 35% 转入奖励金库（Rewards Vault）。

<figure><img src="/files/H37BQVyG9YwKBvL9wW2Y" alt=""><figcaption><p>这张图示说明了使用 $WARPED 购买 Koju 的收入再分配过程。</p></figcaption></figure>

### 参与设计提案投票

持有 $WARPED 的玩家可以对由 Warped Games 团队提出的精选游戏设计提案进行投票。这些提案可能涵盖赛季更新、新游戏资产、叙事扩展等创意决策，帮助玩家在游戏发展的过程中留下自己的印记，同时确保所有决策符合游戏的愿景。

### 解锁专属内容

$WARPED 持有者将获得独家游戏内内容的访问权限，例如限量版皮肤和物品。这些专属内容为代币持有者增加价值，同时保持游戏的公平与平衡。此外，代币持有者可能解锁特定社交空间，与其他持有者互动，进一步增强社区驱动的游戏体验。


# 代币经济模型

WARPED 代币分配与流通概览

$WARPED 的代币分配经过精心规划，确保项目的可持续性与长期增长，同时吸取了以往在代币化经济与 Web3 社区管理中的经验教训。以下为代币分配与用途的详细说明：

### 私募

为了资助早期开发与建立法律实体，$WARPED 在两个阶段完成私募：

• 第一阶段：每枚 $0.00019，面向长期支持者。

• 第二阶段：每枚 $0.00023，针对区块链领域的关键人物。

私募代币的释放周期为 6 至 12 周。

### 预售

预售分为多个阶段，每阶段价格从 $0.00037 到 $0.0042 不等，每阶段分配 5 亿枚代币（占总供应量的 5%）。代币在 12 周内释放（启动时 40%，6 周后 30%，12 周后 30%）。早期阶段优先支持白名单钱包，以回馈长期支持者。收入分配为流动性（40%）与开发扩展（60%）。

### 团队分配

为了确保团队的长期承诺,$WARPED的15亿件（占总供应量的15%)分配给了团队成员。这些令牌在12个月内发布,前三个月是锁定期,接下来的9个月是线性发布。

### Uniswap启动流动性

在预售结束后，**8 亿枚 $WARPED 代币（占总供应量的 8%）** 被加入到 **Uniswap v2 流动性池**，以支持公开市场的自由交易。

### 国库分配

Warped Games 的金库中分配了大量 $WARPED 代币，用于支持项目持续发展。金库分配具有灵活性，可根据生态系统的需求进行调整。

支持领域包括：

• 场外交易（OTC）

• 链上与链下交易所流动性

• 团队与顾问扩展

• 市场推广

• 游戏内奖励与玩家激励

金库确保了 Warped Games 在不断构建与扩展《Warped Universe》的过程中保持财务稳定。

### **代币销毁**

在从 **Ethereum 迁移至 Sui** 的过程中，**7.618% 的 $WARPED 总供应量** 已被永久销毁，从而不可逆地减少了 $WARPED 的流通数量。

### 代币分配比例

• 私募： 10%

• 预售： 30%

• 团队： 15%

• 启动流动性： 8%

• 金库： 37%

# 简介

在游戏中实现有意义的区块链集成

《Warped Universe》通过区块链技术提升玩家体验，为玩家提供实质性所有权和影响力，同时维护一个公平且以玩家为中心的生态系统。所有权主要体现在装饰、个性化和战斗通行证上，而所有增强游戏玩法的物品均保持离链设计，以奖励玩家的努力与技巧。

我们的链上物品旨在鼓励玩家掌控自己的资产，充分挖掘其潜力，并探索区块链集成所带来的独特功能。


# 战斗通行证

通往宇宙的钥匙与进度追踪

Warped Universe中的战斗通行证是一个全面的系统，用于追踪玩家每个赛季的进度。它分为免费和高级（付费）两种类型，既保证了所有玩家的可参与性，又为选择付费版本的玩家提供额外福利。战斗通行证可以解锁新物品、新任务和全新体验，是Warped Universe生态系统的核心功能之一。

### 免费与高级战斗通行证&#x20;

* **免费战斗通行证：**&#x6240;有玩家将自动获得一个免费的战斗通行证，该通行证不是NFT。然而，在免费战斗通行证的特定等级解锁的装饰性物品将作为NFT提供。
* **付费高级战斗通行证：**&#x9AD8;级战斗通行证为NFT，包含100个等级的扩展奖励。奖励包括独特的自定义项和装饰性物品（作为NFT），以及新任务等非NFT奖励。

&#x20;玩家可以随时将自己的免费战斗通行证升级为付费高级版本，解锁奖励的同时不丢失已取得的进度。

### 等级结构与进度机制

每个战斗通行证由100个等级组成，付费高级战斗通行证持有者每个等级都可解锁奖励，而免费战斗通行证仅在部分等级解锁奖励。为增强进度系统的深度，完成战斗通行证的玩家可以将其重置为更高难度。

* **难度级别：** 战斗通行证设有五个难度级别，玩家可以重复完成最初的100个等级，随着难度的增加。随着玩家在更高难度下的进展，他们可以解锁更强版本的物品，如带有稀有特征的替代纹理和颜色的NFT，或者增加的Koju奖励。此系统为物品增加了稀有性，使得随着玩家完成更高难度级别，奖励变得更加有价值。总共，这将为玩家提供500个等级供他们挑战。

### 独特的所有权与可访问性

每个账户每赛季只能购买一个高级战斗通行证，以确保进度与个人努力挂钩。重要的是，战斗通行证中解锁的物品并不与通行证本身绑定。即使玩家选择出售或出租其战斗通行证NFT，他们仍然保有已获得奖励的所有权。这一设计提供了更大的灵活性，使玩家既能探索赛季内容，又能保留辛勤获得的成就。

### 获取往季内容

高级战斗通行证作为时间胶囊，允许玩家重新访问并解锁此前赛季的内容。不像传统游戏那样在赛季结束后无法访问其内容，Warped Universe允许玩家使用、出租或出售其战斗通行证NFT，确保早期内容仍可供探索。

有关战斗通行证NFT在Warped Universe中的具体功能技术细节，请参阅Sui部分的嵌套NFT章节。


# Koju

用于个性化的货币

Koju 是《Warped Universe》中用于购买装饰、个性化物品和战斗通行证的货币，帮助玩家打造独特的游戏旅程。Koju 的价值固定为 0.01 美元，是 Sui 网络上的闭环代币，无法交易，表现得像传统游戏内货币。

尽管 Koju 在链上运行，玩家无需与任何区块链界面交互。所有交易都会通过 Game Vault 在后台无缝管理，确保流畅且熟悉的用户体验。

这种模式允许《Warped Universe》利用 Sui 网络的优势，同时不影响用户体验，并维护一个公平、平衡的生态系统。


# 游戏库（Game Vault）

安全地链上管理和存储您的资产

Game Vault 是一个托管钱包，所有《Warped Universe》的账户在创建时都会自动分配，无论玩家通过哪个平台访问游戏。即使因平台限制（例如 Steam）无法使用区块链功能，玩家的购买也会安全地存储在链上。

Game Vault 在后台无缝运行，gas 费用由 Warped Games 代表玩家管理，确保区块链的集成不会打扰或复杂化那些偏好传统游戏设置的玩家。对于这些玩家来说，Game Vault 仅作为他们购买物品的安全数据库。


# 个人保险库（Personal Vault）

让所有权触手可及

对于希望完全掌控游戏内资产的玩家，Personal Vault 提供了实现真正所有权的便捷途径。玩家可通过我们的网站将非托管钱包连接到自己的《Warped Universe》账户，并将链上资产提取到个人钱包中，从而拥有和交易这些资产的机会。

虽然所有 Koju 交易都在 Game Vault 中安全管理，以确保流畅的游戏体验，但 Personal Vault 让玩家能够拥有他们的物品，提供灵活性，让玩家可以根据自己的需求自由交易或使用物品，且不会受到任何限制。


# 在《Warped Universe》中进行购买

简化购物体验

《Warped Universe》通过两个商店系统优化了购买体验，以满足不同玩家的需求：

### 游戏内商店：

化妆品和战斗通行证可在此处使用 Koju 购买，提供额外的便利。

### 外部店面：

&#x20;玩家可通过以下渠道购买 Koju：

• **Steam 市场：**&#x9002;用于 Steam 用户。

• **XSolla：**&#x652F;持 Epic Games 等平台。

• **Warped Universe 官网：**&#x652F;持加密货币（包括 $WARPED）购买。

无论在哪个平台购买，Koju 都会立即计入玩家的 Game Vault。

这种系统在提升访问便捷性的同时，确保符合平台的特定条款和条件，为玩家提供多种方式参与《Warped Universe》的经济体系。


# 成就与物品获得

伟大必须靠努力争取。

《Warped Universe》注重技能和努力的价值，而非单纯的财力优势。游戏内商店中的所有物品和收藏品均不会提供“付费即胜”的机制。增强游戏玩法的物品（如武器、技能和飞船）只能通过实时或回合制模式中的成就解锁，允许玩家以适合自己的游戏风格进行进步。

这种基于努力的机制同样适用于部分装饰品，玩家必须通过完成特定挑战或里程碑来解锁。这些成就驱动的装饰品不仅因稀缺性而更具价值，也成为玩家勇于挑战极限的荣誉徽章。

通过确保游戏玩法和装饰都回馈玩家的努力，《Warped Universe》构建了一个公平且平衡的生态系统，珍视奉献与技巧。


# 进化的饰品和赛季奖励

通过进化物品实现个性化进步

《Warped Universe》利用 Sui 区块链的创新能力提供进化型 NFT，打造伴随玩家旅程动态成长的收藏品。依托 Sui 的面向对象模型和 Move 编程语言，装饰品和其他物品可根据游戏中的里程碑或成就获得独特的特性和属性，为玩家赢得的奖励增添深度和个性化。

### 主题赛季内容

每个赛季都有独特的故事情节，引入新的地图和任务，以及一系列限时装饰品，与《Warped Universe》不断发展的主题和叙事相呼应。这些限时装饰品不仅让游戏体验更具吸引力和时效性，也提升了往季物品的稀缺性和价值。

• 付费战斗通行证 让玩家能够解锁独家奖励，这些奖励无法直接从游戏内商店购买，包括独特的装饰品和其他显示玩家特定赛季投入的物品。

• 免费战斗通行证 可供所有玩家使用，但不包含付费通行证的高级奖励。

### 稀缺性和Web 2.0/Web 3.0动态

《Warped Universe》NFT 的稀缺性和价值受到多种因素影响：

• **限时供应:** 装饰品和战斗通行证奖励仅在限定时期或其对应赛季内提供，一旦游戏内无法获得，这些物品只能通过二级市场交易。

• **Web2 购买对稀缺性的影响:** 《Warped Universe》的大部分购买预计来自 Web2 平台，这些平台上生成的 NFT 存储在玩家的 Game Vault 中。除非玩家主动索取 NFT 的所有权，否则它们将无法交易，从而有效减少流通供应量。这一稀缺性在如 Steam 等平台上更加显著，因其当前的限制，玩家无法索取或交互平台上的 NFT，这些物品可能被无限期锁定，进一步减少流通供应。


# 区块链《Warped Universe》中的应用

将传统游戏体验与区块链创新相结合

在《Warped Universe》中，区块链作为一个隐形的基础架构，在后台无缝管理资产和 Koju 交易。对大多数玩家而言，它的表现与传统数据库无异，提供稳定性和安全性，同时无需直接交互。

这种设计确保了区块链交互完全是可选的。希望传统游戏体验的玩家可以完全不接触区块链功能，而对区块链感兴趣的玩家则能解锁更多可能性，如资产的所有权和交易，以及参与 $WARPED 的应用，为沉浸式游戏体验增添价值驱动的维度。


# Beamable

提升游戏性，简化开发

Beamable 是一款服务于后端的开发平台，提供排行榜、社交互动和云存储等关键功能，简化了游戏开发流程。我们与 Beamable 的合作让这些功能得以快速集成，避免了自定义后端开发的需求，使我们的团队能够专注于内容创作和游戏性提升。

通过与多个区块链平台的无缝连接，Beamable 支持去中心化资产所有权和货币化，丰富了游戏体验。同时，它还通过内置的游戏内聊天和公会系统，促进社区互动，为玩家营造一个协作环境。

最重要的是，Beamable 与 Sui 区块链的无缝集成简化了区块链技术的采用，使其更加用户友好。这一集成支持游戏内购买、虚拟货币和可扩展更新，确保玩家体验响应迅速、始终如一。
