Paving the way with AAA minigames[]
Building a large ambitious and innovative game takes lots of time and resources. We at Gyris have decided to develop and release Triple-A quality Minigames during the development of the bigger thing. This way, we'll be able to have content for and engage with our community during the lengthy development phase of a modern videogame. We have several minigames conceptualized and planned, all of which will give us time to work on parts and mechanics of the bigger game - MMORPG. Along with gameplay mechanics such as riding, building, combat and so on, we will be sculpting the 3D assets required for the vast Gyris universe.
What is the Gyris MMORPG?[]
See Gyris MMORPG Game Design Page
The Gyris MMORPG is an open world built in Unreal Engine 5, leveraging new and lean game development tech while integrating with the Solana blockchain to offer true ownership of your in-game assets. Featuring a game map with size of ~2500 km², which places it on 5th place in top largest Open-world game maps today.
Our Genesis holders are our Pioneers; builders in a wild frontier. The Gyris game world will be shaped through the interaction of story and community. All Gyris holders will have the opportunity to stake claim and settle in Gyris. You'll be able to build and develop your land as well as shape and help the development of your settlement/colony. There will be region and resource control, as well as battles and campaigns. Ask your village chief how you can contribute!
The earliest game prototype will allow your avatar to move around the available parts of Gyris, choose your patch of Earth, and from the world around you craft that which you need to survive. Trees will become wood, stone into bricks and blocks. Some food will give you energy, others help you see the unseen. You will have the ability to terraform, protecting your place from a future you fear lurks on the horizon. You can choose to work together with others or simply live out life on your own. In the beginning you will be safe from death….but not forever, for even Eden fell to original sin and soon enough The Dark will come.
