🔴 SEGMENT 1 INTRODUCTION

1. Could you please provide a quick self-introduction for the community?

Gianfranco Filice:
Sure! My name is Gianfranco, I graduated from Stanford with a degree in economics. Prior to joining Aquanee, I was an investment banker in Silicon Valley.

2.Can you briefly introduce the project AQUANEE what are some of utlities of $AQDC ? How do you think you stand out among the competitors if there are any?

Gianfranco Filice:
🐠🐠🐠AQUANEE, a real-time combat simulation game (SLG) for blockchain gamers. An ecosystem that includes games, DEX, NFT markets, and an upcoming public chain encompass the project. AQUANEE is inspired by sea creatures, which allows players to hatch and cultivate pets and earn tokens (NEE).

🔥🔥🔥AQUANEE games will be launched at the same time with features such as reproduction, evolution, PVE, PVP, territory boss, tournaments, etc. AQUA can explore the world alone, or team up to fight against other players or territory bosses. Players can collect, nurture, fight and build an AQUANEE kingdom for their pet AQUA.

We are the only pure play 3-D Unity game on blockchain.

We also offer BTC as prizes during our game, thanks to our partners.

And we are very socially driven :)

3. Can you share the achievements the team has made so far ? what are the major achievement target AQUANEE is yet to achieve . If possible also share your roadmap.

Gianfranco Filice:
We are launching our beta version of internal testing this month along with our initial NFT sales set for Jan 20th until Jan 31st. We will also be conducting our IDO on Feb 8th of this year.

Some areas of focus for us include fully launching the came on iOS, Android, and Windows games, while also putting together the final touches of AR/VR wearable integration in our gameplay.

We have every intent of making this an extremely popular game, then working to list on a centralized exchange so our players can have access to more liquidity.

Here's some background on the team

Team members are mainly distributed in different countries, including Japan team (art design, UI design, Sound design), Singapore (operations, blockchain technology development). Taiwan has a game team of 25 people in charge of game development and production. There are 25 people in charge of game planning and numerical, game research and development, art team, 9 people in charge of operation and marketing team, 15 people in charge of blockchain technology support team.

With more than 7 years of background in game planning, development and art team, the company has released more than 10 head games worldwide, including DNF series, Civilization, 99Ji, Blacksand, etc

4) Could you share a bit about security and also what benefits you provide to incentives user’s choosing your platform?

Gianfranco Filice:
Aquanee's team brings 10 years of experience working together.

We developed the game with clear expectations for enjoying that players of all types can enjoy the game first and foremost. We have an iOS app in development that won't require test flight (like Axie), an Android App, and play to launch on Steam for Windows making it really easy to play on your preferred platform.

We also employ industry-setting gameplay across multiple levels to ensure that there is engagement and fun throughout the game.

We work with industry-setting auditors and security specialists to ensure the best framework for ensuring game stability and smart contract safety.

It's play to earn, so if players want to have fun and earn, they should use our platform :)

5.Whats the total supply of the token ? Could you share a detailed tokenomics of mainnet token’s supply distribution

Gianfranco Filice:
There is a total supply of 1,000,000,000 AQDC.

Here's a breakdown of how they are used!

We have two tokens, (1) Nee and (2) AQDC

Force Stones(NEE)
1/ When reproducing, [NEE] will be consumed. The number of [NEE] consumed will increase as you reproduce more AQUAs, however, the [NEE] required for each phase are different.

Before reaching the Universe Phase, all AQUAs can evolve to the next phase. The evolution requires consumable item [Star Power(AQDC)] and a AQUA of the same phase. The higher the phase, the more [Star Power(AQDC)] will be consumed. After the evolution, the AQUA’s all attributes will be increased.

Nee is used for game consumption and aqdc is used for ecological governance
AQDC can be purchased on DEX and CEX (in the future) and is more of a utility token, whereas NEE is most similar to Smooth Love Potion in Axie Infinity.

🔵 SEGMENT2 TWITTER QUESTIONS.

1.Who are your targeted audience and customers? What regions do you target specifically or are there any restriction to users?Some other projects or protocol can copy the real word items too. How can you make sure it is only represented by your project?

Gianfranco Filice:
We focus on three audiences:

1/ Hobbyists who like to collect cute NFTs

2/ Professional players

3/ Everyday players who want access to a fun game

We are looking are targeting Asian, North America, Africa, and Europe as starting markets.

We are working with KOLs and media partners to ensure we reach out partners.

2.Currently, the key problems in crypto games are that they are repetitive, boring, unimpressive in terms of art, and no actual gaming experience. So how does Aquanee plan to make a difference? How the gameplay will not allow to be another boring platform of NFT game?

Gianfranco Filice:
Our game leverages a global team for designing the game, both on the level of graphics and on the level of gameplay. We think we have industry-setting 3-D graphics to ensure that things are impressive and fun.

For gameplay, we have four different levels that players can play in, each requiring more effort to join and move up a level. Each level would unlock more challenging game play and more maps to explore.

3.How strong is your team ? Many projects starts with good impression and later abandoned the project. What makes your project different than others?

Gianfranco Filice:
Gamefi's core is games. We are a team with a background in traditional games. We think that fun games are always liked by players. Whether he or she is a traditional player or a chain player, the new token liquidity game will add new opportunities to the game, so more and more people will join and participate.

At this moment, it is the initial stage of the meta-universe, and aquanee is the wedge for us to enter the meta-universe. With the development of our layout, the current game mode may become outdated in a few years, but based on the uniqueness of DID in the meta-universe, there will be more interesting ways to play in aquan's meta-universe.

Here's a roadmap for this upcoming year, which includes AR/VR integration and metaverse development!

4.Is your gameplay can be easily understood by all kinds of players especially fwor those who are relatively new into crypto or just starting out? Can they still enjoy the game even though they dont really much know about crypto and crypto-related products?

Gianfranco Filice:
We are working to ensure that the game is friendly to all types of players, from amateurs to professionals. We especially want to attract and make it easy for players who never have played block chain based games before. We make it simple and easy to understand.

We also have videos to explain the game really easily.

5.I saw from your website that Minting baby AQUA will be available soon. Can you tell us how minting will work and how much does a baby AQUA works since we’ll be needing atleast 1 baby AQUA to be able to play the game?

Gianfranco Filice:
Yes, so to get aquas to play you need to buy a mystery box which is roughly $300.

As you okay the game, you can breed two aquas to make a new baby aqua that you can use for gameplay, rent out to others, or sell on the secondary market.

The set of aquas you get at first is about 5 of them :)
