The initial idea to make a game with ducks with the Waves Protocol came a year ago, when Sasha Ivanov started posting photos of ducks that captured the center of Moscow during a lockdown. And, since then, the game has come a long way through.
It all started like: “1 million $EGG tokens will be distributed throughout the Duck Hunter campaign by the Waves team; $EGG airdrop will incentivize activations across the Waves’ ecosystem on the blockchain’s native DEX swop.fi, on Waves exchange as well as members of the Waves Association, SIGN Art, and holders of NSBT and WCT; $EGG farming will allow for voting and upgraded breeding mechanics.”
Now, the price of these NFT tokens is going up. And, this is happening despite the market tanking. This just looks like another utility for crypto beyond trading.
Activities in the social networks and the scaling up activity for WAVES DUCKs are becoming essential to keeping the game accessible and exciting as the numbers of players keep increasing.
Waves Ducks team is trying to make it as easy as possible for regular users. They have prepared a batch of tutorials to help players get used to the gaming process. The important part of the game is activities in social networks, which are known as rounds. There were hundreds of people in the beginning, and now it is thousands and thousands, and scaling up the activity review turns out to be not very easy on the protocol.
Traction is that every product update leads to its downtime. However, the fast implementation of the game is happening, and this also meant that the blockchain is quite prepared for the dramatic increases in load.
Translations are bringing in more players. For instance, Inal Kardan expressed: “Many members of the Russian-speaking WavesDucks community have begun helping Spanish-speaking new players using Google Translate. It all happened so fast that after 12 hours, we found a Spanish group of 1200+ new players and about 15 “old” players who helped to sort out the game.”
The community seems to gather very quickly for Waves Ducks.
Inal Kardan, Chief Ducks Adviser at Waves Ducks, stated: During the implementation of Jackpot ducks, which were planned from the very beginning, we realized that this is the very generation J. And yes, it happened by accident, and we did not plan it so well.
The community placed a heavy demand on the tools they already did not have. This led to several tools like explorer, telegram bot, duxchange, and Instagram Masks were quickly put in place.
For the Waves DUCKs gaming strategy, there is no one strategy in the game. For some, the strategy is to try to earn money by farming, while others are trading ducks ready for farming. Some users do both depending on their luck.
