This is an opportunity to support an online game that leverages many of Nxt's advanced features, one of the highlights being a user-driven crafting economy.

Donations can be sent to 13776816462073143763; please include tx id so I can include it when updating this post and making it easier for James to keep track of incoming transactions.

We're also considering implementing a kickstarter-style tier system for bounty donators. These would be cosmetic rewards that wouldn't be available after game launch. Something like:

10 NXT - badge
100 NXT - cap
1000 NXT - cape
10000 NXT - beta access (?)

Depending on how we handle character death/respawning, these items may be also confer a quicker resurrection.

It's the first coin that Huntercoin introduces game into blockchain, which got so many interest by the players this week. So I'm wondering whether anyone can fork a chain for the similar game based on Nxt AS, and I can donate at least 20K Nxt for it.

The above post was ignored ten days ago, and it seems many discussions about a game based on Nxt during the last two days. The donation is also available in this month.

I think Flappycoin is also developing a game. Since the original FlappyBird is out of Apple store it is a good idea from them.

Haha, a cape! *swishes*

For respawns: go for the philosophy of WoW, instead of EvE. Make it easy to get back in the game and make the learning curve easy.
After the "tutorial" phase, advanced powerful features can be added.

Bit like Nxt, really

I have a site prepared for selling stickes, mugs, etc... and much more. Just wait few days for publishing

Great!
I seem to have missed the announcement. It's very hard to keep up with all the updates on the various sites... 

Will you also create / sell clothing for promotional purposes?

no, we are waiting for pro company to create for us branding packages, so we will have new logos etc, so any items created with old logos are a waste of time and resources I think

What do you mean by "old logos"?

[Mario123]

no, we are waiting for pro company to create for us branding packages, so we will have new logos etc, so any items created with old logos are a waste of time and resources I think

Do they use the old logo and enhance it (color, variations, text combinations, ...), do they use the old logo as inspiration or do they make a complete new logo?

yes please elaborate on the logo, who decided to change the logo?

Hi,

This is another project initiated by me  

I have asked the designers to keep hash's logo. No need to replace it at all.

They will use the style we have now as a stepping stone for a unified "branding".

This is not to centralise branding, but to make it easy for anyone who wants to use Nxt in design to have a repository of materials to use (color, logo, typeface etc.)

It will hopefully allow people to very quickly set up recognisable Nxt promo materials and sites.

I have gotten an bounty pledge of 30,000 Nxt for this on completion.
Any private donations to this are very welcome, by the way.  
This should ensure they do a good job and will finish it.

The proposals will be done in the marketing thread and can be critiqued. After that it's back to the drawing board until we have a reasonable consensus.

This is the way I envision handling this. I have a meeting with them this Sunday and then they will get to work.

Yes, I do  

[Mario123]

Can somebody say to them they should first try to incorporate the current logo? Or is this too narrowing for creativity?

edit: Ok, great. I'm looking forward to their work.

Hi Damelon, I see a few mentions of clothing here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=412243.msg4884267;topicseen#msg48842
That's the beginning of february.

Is someone actively working on this?

[EmoneyRu]

The committees can go to work.

Let's crowdsource template!

I am, with these guys.
At least, I want to start offering apparel and other simple things ASAP once they provide me with some work.

This is a different thing from their branding assignment, as I want this to coincide with the payment system I am also pushing to be developed. The apparel thing is my own project with them. The branding is for the whole community.

Would you be open to cooperation?  

[salsacz]

we have some tshirts

I'm preparing a new test version. The testnet will be reset in ~8 hours.

reset? so we loose all assets / balances again?

Yes. If it's necessary to keep them then I could do a full reset later (in several days) but we still need to do final testing with reset blockchain.

- wesleyh, could you please make simplified copy (without e-mail) of your excelent http://nxtra.org/faucet/ for the testnet (to give ~4500 testNXT)?  Then CfB (or I) could sent ~300k testNXT to that testFaucet, and all those, who willing to test AE on the reloaded blockchain, will get test coins.
I can donate you with 1000 real NXT for this not so interesting work ...

Still might be nice.

msin is willing to pay 250K, maybe we can add 250K unclaimed coins, but that would be as far as I would go.

dont know wath the community thinks.

Did not read that it is not for sale anymore.
