In this episode of ShardTalk, we have Alain Goldman, head developer of Tides of Magic to share with us more about his game.

Name: Tides of Magic
Genre: TCG
Quick Info: Alain was the founder and lead developer for World of Ether. In Tides of Magic, you can transform any blockchain game assets from the crypto space into cards.

Q: Would you like to share a little about your background in game development and your involvement with World of Ether?

Alain: World of Ether was a monster-breeding Ethereum game that used state channels to facilitate battling. My hands were pretty much everywhere. I did the initial presale contract, presale website, named the monsters and the monster lore. I wrote paragraphs for each monster we had.

We ended up having to chop off a good deal of text as I just had so much fun doing it. After all, you can tell I love creating stories behind characters if you just look at some of the Tides of Magic cards.

When the presale was about launch, I coded the state channel, battling between users and a number of our contracts breeding and such.
