Taiwan’s blockchain startup team Lootex recently announced a new collaboration with Taiwan’s indie game team Digital Crafter for the first joint project of the game ⟪Fight of Animals⟫ 3D limited virtual figure. ⟪Fight of Animals⟫ virtual figure is an NFT digital collectible created through blockchain technology. Its immutability and scarcity is used to prove that the virtual figure is published by officials and the issued amount is open for the public to supervise.

Content providers actively create maximum value of IPs

When the game developer Digital Crafter planned and marketed the ⟪Fight of Animals⟫ , they used Internet memes to create the WOM (word-of-mouth) and drive the sales of game and merchandise.

Ken Wei, CEO of Digital Crafter said: “All content creators hope to create the greatest value of IP and accumulate the intangible assets of the brand. We hope to reach more people who don’t normally play games through popular memes on the Internet. I also hope that through the familiarity and cuteness of memes, we can strengthen the connection with fans by creating all kinds of merchandise based on the game. Thanks for the collaboration with Lootex.

Our project is currently an avant-garde experiment, but has a very bright future. We would like to take this opportunity to survey the market feedback.

Blockchain technology helps digital collectibles prove authenticity and further reflect the value accordingly

In the past, it was difficult to prove who the creator or distributor was and the quantity limit for digital creations. In addition, it was easy to replicate. Therefore, the value could not be recognized by the public.

Justine Lu, CEO of Lootex said, “In fact, the use of blockchain technology to create digital collectibles has long been a trend. For example, NBA is going to launch its digital player’s card soon ⟪NBA Top Shot⟫, also F1’s virtual racing cars are already actively selling. They’re all created based on blockchain. Blockchain is just like a digital steel safe: once the authenticity and the scarcity can be proved, digital creation has become truly valuable products by implementing blockchain technology.”

The following features of blockchain bring value to digital assets:

Digital authenticity

The information on the encrypted certificate can prove to be the authentic product issued by the issuer or creator, and cannot be altered, and the scarcity is guaranteed.

Easy to track

Anyone can query the issuer, owner, issuance quantity, and transaction history of the asset on the public blockchain. There is no need to argue about ownership anymore.

High circulation

NFT is easy to interface with applications on the blockchain, and digital assets will be truly cross-platform applications. Since it is unimpeded, it also brings tradable and exchangeable characteristics to it.

It means that blockchain creates digital assets that can exist independently and can be used in different applications without special communication.

Asia’s first 3D NFT virtual figure with AR demo

When Lootex and Digital Crafter were planning the ⟪Fight of Animals⟫ project, Ken, also the game producer, felt that since the game characters are all 3D modules, can NFT also vividly show the dynamics? Thus, the idea of ​​a “virtual figure” was born. Except for Lootex’s own NFT marketplace, as long as it supports 3D format, you can go anywhere and freely play with it in every angle and detail.

Justine Lu, CEO of Lootex, went on to add that the AR presentation of 3D files is even more fun. As long as you are an iPhone user, you can use your iPhone to open the virtual figure, and you can also present it in AR, and take pictures with it, making it an existence that cannot be ignored in the real scene. (Your iPhone needs to be updated to iOS 12 or above)

3D NFT virtual figure

Lootex team believes that since it is essentially a digital collectible, it must produce the effect that consumers are willing to show off in order to truly conform to the essence of “collection”. The digital collectibles diverged from the 2D graphics files of the ordinary cards, and moved towards the 3D representation of the three-dimensional figures and even with the AR effect. This is the first 3D NFT virtual figure with AR demo in Asia.

Super limited with game code

⟪Fight of Animals⟫ limited virtual figure, in total 10 characters includes Power Hook Dog, Crowrilla, Slender Cat, Egg Dog, Tricky Fox, Mighty Fox, Walking Cat, Muscle Beluga, Magic Squirrel, and Bad Dog. In addition to a limited edition of 10 pieces, there is also a gold limited edition of only 1 piece for each character.

To celebrate the very first bilateral project, no matter which edition you get, a set of Steam game redeem code comes with it!

Lootex hopes that through this cross-collaboration with Digital Crafter, people who are not familiar with the crypto world can no longer feel that the blockchain is distant, but can see interesting applications that are truly close to life.
