Features of Earthlings

1. A world view that fuses fantasy, steampunk and vintage with the real Earth: A world of mechanical magic

Earthlings Land is a metaverse online game set on Earth hundreds of years in the future, and is being developed on the Hedgelash Graph network. The game features a fantasy world that incorporates elements of vintage and steampunk.

Details of the world view:

• Earth in the future: Modern civilisation collapsed due to troubles between nations at the end of the 21st century. Since then, people have been building a new society, exploring the relics of the old world. Technology has been reconstructed in the steampunk style of the 1950s to 1970s, and life is lived in harmony with nature.
• Vast fields centred around Europe: The game takes place across Europe. Players can explore a variety of areas, including forests, lakes and disused subway lines.
• Diverse areas: Each area has its own ecosystem and geographical features, and players can experience different adventures and challenges in each region.

Earthlings Land aims to provide a fun gaming experience for families, and does not include elements such as gunfights or zombies. As such, it can be enjoyed by players of a wide range of ages.

As such, Earthlings Land is being developed as a game with a unique world view that fuses vintage and steampunk, set on a futuristic Earth.

2. Advanced character customisation

In Earthlings Land, players can customise their own avatar in a variety of ways. They can change the appearance and equipment of their avatar as they like, allowing players to create their own unique character to suit their individual style and strategy.

Furthermore, Earthlings Land is set in a fantasy world that incorporates elements of vintage and steampunk, and fashion items that match this unique world view will also be developed. These items can be obtained through in-game exploration and quests, and will allow you to make your avatar’s appearance even more unique.

Players can also freely develop their own towns in the area called ‘wastelands’, and use their own design and art skills to create whatever they like within the game. This allows players to customise not only their avatar’s fashion and equipment, but also the environment itself within the game.

In this way, Earthlings Land offers a wide range of avatar customisation and fashion options, allowing players to create their own unique characters and worlds.

3. Various elements for growth

In Earthlings Land, players can develop their avatar and sidekick (partner) to create their own unique style of play.

Avatar development:

By selecting an avatar that suits your own style of exploration from among the multiple avatars available, you can enjoy the adventure that interests you. Furthermore, there are many combinations of avatars and sidekicks, so you can expand your strategy and evolve it into a style that is easy for you to enjoy.

Avatars are the characters that players control, and they can be trained in the following ways.

• Selecting from a range of types: There are six types of avatars available, including Sky, Fynn, Pepper, Mr. Banks, Kaya, and John Doe. Each has its own strengths and weaknesses.

• Leveling up: You can gain experience points by completing quests and defeating enemies, and use these to level up your avatar.
• Using NFTs: There are many NFTs that can be used in adventures. Acquire NFTs that will give your avatar an advantage, as well as NFTs that are necessary for your explorations.

Raising Sidekicks:

Sidekicks are animal companions that support players’ adventures, and can be raised in the following ways.

• Selecting a Type: There are seven types of sidekicks available, including the cunning fox, european mouflon, fast hare, king crab, mighty bear, red deer, and wild boar.
• Training and Upgrading: Sidekicks grow stronger and smarter through training and upgrades.
• Utilising Abilities: Each sidekick has its own unique abilities, for example, the cunning fox is good at capturing new sidekick animals.

These elements allow players to develop their avatar and sidekick to their liking, and enjoy the game’s adventures even more.

4. Battle Royale Game

In Earthlings Land, a battle royale-style minigame called ‘The Pollo 5000 Egg Shooter’ is being developed.

Battle Royale Game Features:

• Gameplay: Players compete against each other using egg-firing shooters.
• Sidekick: A rooster appears in the game as a player’s sidekick, and they can fight together.

This mini-game aims to provide a unique and fun battle royale experience while making use of the world of Earthlings Land.

Players and development staff opinions

MIR4

Media A

「Although South Korea banned P2E games, Korean company Netmarble’s “Second Country: Cross World” and WeMade’s “Mir 4” ranked first and second in the global P2E games last year. Korean companies will launch more P2E games to overseas markets this year.」

Fan B

「I just find it weird that none of the WEB 3 gaming KOLs are talking about MIR4 & Nightcrows by Wemix.

These games actually have decent gameplay, graphics and mechanics that even my eSports circle irl play and streams it religiously.

Do note that some of them don’t have prior WEB 3 background so it’s safe to assume that the games itself are enticing and attractive even to traditional gamers and not for the financial value that the game can offer.

You guys are only interested to promote rugs, no?」
