Objective: The primary aim of this proposal is to bolster user interaction and the utility of heroes within DeFi Kingdoms by developing an on-chain social platform that utilizes the Lens Protocol and the ERC6551 standard.
Insipiration: DeFi Kingdom is a fantastic game, but it is missing an core element that in my humble opinion, makes a game fun - and that’s the social aspect of it.
MMORPGs are like a mass delusion, a collective fantasy that we all live in. Being able to pretend to live in an other environment along with others is one of the most fun things you can do.
I propose we build a new social media platform - Heroes Tavern, that allows players to play out and share their achievements with others. enabling another level of interaction beyond the core gameplay.
Objective: To enhance user interaction and utility of heroes within DeFi Kingdoms by Creating an onchain social platform based on the Lens Protocol and the ERC6551 standard.
Plan of Action:
- Deployment of Lens Protocol Contracts on DeFi Kingdoms: The first phase still involves deploying Lens Protocol Contracts on DeFi Kingdoms, to enable the creation of a social layer for blockchain networks that can foster community engagement and social interactions among users.
- Integration of Diamond Standard Facets for Heroes: Given that heroes in DeFi Kingdoms are compliant with the Diamond Standard (ERC-2535), we will develop and integrate custom facets for these heroes to allow for unique account addresses capable of owning various types of tokens and in-game assets. These facets can use the “Diamond Storage” approach mentioned in the description of the ERC-2535 standard for efficient and safe data handling.
- Establishment of a Hero Register: As with the original proposal, this phase involves creating a registry to bind every hero to their Diamond Standard facet, enabling effective tracking of each hero’s assets and interactions within the platform.
- Airdrop of Lens Handles - .hero: Lens handles (denoted as “.hero”) will be airdropped into heroes’ diamond facets, representing unique on-chain identities for each hero.
- Development and Launch of Heroes Tavern: Finally, the Heroes Tavern, a communal virtual hub where heroes can interact, trade, and participate in events, will be developed and launched. This platform will initially be web-based, with plans for a future mobile application.
Additional Features and Enhancements:
- Customize the User Interface: To set Heroes Tavern apart and align with the aesthetic of DeFi Kingdoms, custom graphics, fonts, color schemes, and other game-specific thematics will be incorporated into the platform’s design.
- Integrate with the DeFi Kingdoms API: If available, the game’s API will be used to pull data into the platform, allowing for automated sharing of achievements and game progress.
- Gamify the Platform: To align with the gaming nature of DeFi Kingdoms, game-like aspects such as earning badges for reaching certain milestones or participating in events, as well as the introduction of leaderboards, will be incorporated into the platform.
- NFT Display and Trade: A dedicated section of the platform will be established to display the NFTs held by a hero, potentially facilitating trades between accounts.
- Community Engagement Features: To encourage user interaction, features like user forums, chat rooms, and the ability to ‘like’ or ‘upvote’ Myths will be incorporated.
- Mobile Compatibility: To cater to players accessing the platform via mobile devices, the platform will be designed with mobile compatibility in mind.
Benefits:
The integration of Lens Protocol and ERC6551 contracts will empower heroes with enhanced functionalities, fostering increased engagement within DeFi Kingdoms. The Heroes Tavern will provide a dynamic platform for users to share their gaming achievements and participate in a richer, more interactive gaming community.
