Introduction

"The Open Space" stands as a metaverse game that fuses science fiction, economic simulation, play-to-earn, and free-to-play themes. The metaverse constitutes a digital realm accessible even without the use of virtual reality technology, envisioned as the next evolution of the internet, allowing individuals to socialize, learn, entertain, and trade in a digital space. Beyond its connection to the real world, the metaverse can also exist in a wholly imaginative domain. Anchored by in-game currencies, NFTs, and other crypto assets, the metaverse houses a transactable economy wherein play-to-earn games, facilitated through participation in in-game activities or the trading of in-game assets, find an ideal platform. Players can traverse diverse planets, undertake adventures, complete quests, and cultivate friendships, all while potentially earning real-world income through their in-game endeavors. The game orchestrates its in-game economy through the deployment of blockchain technology, securing the game's resources or assets as cryptocurrency or token holdings. Players can seamlessly convert these tokens into tangible currency as needed.

Methodology

"The Open Space" functions as a metaverse game situated on the WAX blockchain network, specially tailored for gaming applications. The WAX blockchain network empowers players to buy and sell in-game assets securely, quickly, and economically. Operating on the EOSIO protocol, the network employs smart contracts, programmable code that automates in-game transactions. The smart contracts driving this game are coded in C++. Key addresses on the mainnet include: theopenspace, theopentoken, theopenfund, and theopenconfg. Developed on the Unity 3D engine, "The Open Space" boasts high-quality, realistic graphics within a user-friendly interface. The game is accessible through web browsers.

Resources or assets within "The Open Space" are symbolized by two types of tokens: $DMATTER and NFTs. $DMATTER serves as the game's primary currency, enabling players to transact within the game. The total supply of $DMATTER is 1.00000000 DMATTER (equivalent to 1 unit). As of now, the market capitalization of $DMATTER is $97,163.13, with listings on the Alcor.Exchange. Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), unique, scarce, and non-interchangeable digital assets, represent customizable in-game tools, items, or lands. Players can craft, purchase, sell, or lease NFTs to personalize their in-game experience.
