What you probably know is that in the 1600s the Dutch experienced a massive tulip bubble known as Tulip mania. What you probably didn’t know is that the Dutch also had a secret passion for fighting their tulips with each other.

Tulip mania and the blockchain: a match made in heaven. Now, we’re taking things to the next level with something we think the Dutch would be proud of: tulip battles.

Battle Stats System

  • Tulips have 6 battle stats: Damage, Armor, Strength, Agility, Intelligence, and Health. These are numbers ranging from 0 to 100 that are determined by the Tulip’s DNA, and rarer tulips have, on average, higher stats. These 6 stats are averaged together to determine your tulip’s battle power.
  • We chose these stats out of nostalgia for the game Warcraft III. From these stats many fun and impactful mini-games were derived.

Upcoming

Surprise! We’re currently developing two games: one on-chain and one off-chain.

Our on-chain game we will be a rendition of war. Players will be able to challenge each other. Tulip stats will play heavily on the outcome of a battle. We believe such an on-chain game will be fun and cheap to play for our users.

For our first off-chain game we wish to release a rendition of tower defense where tulips will defend against waves of other characters. The tower defense game will draw tulip tower stats from a user’s inventory and will be run in the browser.

We’ll be rolling out an update to view your tulip stats tomorrow.

Happy Farming!
