thursday night with the hogs. Let's fucking go.
Get the room tweeted out.
Let's get some people in here.
Brew crew showing up in force.
We got Sheriff down low there.
We got Guest and a T. Stormborn's in the house. Madman got Joker. What's up, guys? We've got Guest N.A.T., Stormborn's in the house, Madman, Chris.
What's going on, Chris? I see you got your hand up.
It's cool. Where are you from?
He knows your see the name.
He knows your Web3 name that you have on there in the Discord.
Yeah, I'm Major Malfunction, like the usual.
So happy to have you here with us.
I'm going to post some stuff up top for you guys as well so grand go ahead i'll let you kick it off go ahead
and uh no you go ahead oh stop you kick it off no actually you know why we're all here
i just gonna say uh we're short fuse because we're we're we're doing some fucking expensive ass giveaways today
so you guys picked a good space to come in rob what's going on buddy how's i just wanted to kick
it off with the first thing like tomorrow's the day the post drops the giveaway for the hog so
i'm excited to see who's gonna be a So, it's free to get in.
You just jump in the EIC Discord,
prize channel, you put in some element,
And if you need element, I'm happy to
give you some. So if it's your first time in the Discord, I'll give you a thousand. and if you need element i'm happy to give you some so if it's your first
time in the discord i'll give you a thousand but uh if you hit me up with if you're not a hog i
want someone to like is it wrong for me that i want it to be like someone who doesn't have a hog
yet like i want to onboard that new person but i bet everyone in here already has a hog, but hey, it's for everyone.
New blood's always good, but if you already got a hog, stack another hog.
As long as it lands in a holder's hand that appreciates what the asset is for long-term holding and a 3D 3d asset well i'll tell you man like you never know who's gonna change a whole project's direction right like just to cut you know like viscid
viscid flow was around from our mint day, like the original mint day in 2022, but he wasn't like as vocal.
And then one day I remember we had a space with like, you know, not, not a lot of people showed up and I was just like, you know what?
I'm just going to give her, I'm going to say what's from the heart, where I want this to go.
And, you know, look at him today.
He's like half running the project president of the club
has shares in the company you know what i mean same with uh i met top hat what were you were
running that other coffee show and then yeah we kind of did that little pre-interview you know
what i mean and we didn't really know each other and then fucking, you know, look at where we're at today. Right. So I think it's, it's good to grow and,
and get new people in and, but at the same time, take care of your,
your people that have been with you too. Right.
I want to make a point on that too. Another cool thing is in real life moments that we've had in the past where we met like Taco with Gala Music and stuff.
And now the awesome friendship and relationship we have with Taco.
And then going out to California, that was at NFT NYC.
And then going out to California, going to VCon last year, met Astro out there.
And that was all because of Taco and Gala Music or Gala 2 at the time.
And now look at Astro now is on the 838s hanging out with us now.
And, dude, it's just awesome.
This space is just amazing in real life.
You know, it's just pretty dope.
I like everybody in the room.
I like everybody in the room to hit the purple pill.
I can see that we have 26 people in the room right now.
Only 14 people have reposted the room. So get down there do that it's just a couple of clicks bookmark it if you want we
have seven bookmarks already that will push the algo out make it do some things i see we have
code in the room gmtu code what's up guys how is everybody today
we are good man how you doing listen code raptor raptor raptor is uh is uh
is on his way over here right now to do some stuff today with me he just dm'd me and he says
that i wouldn't watch and i says no you didn't but you nearly almost did so he's crying like a little
nice raptor's working on some uh some cool with the the one of ones we're hoping to
kind of get those guys into the game as npcs is the the plan for some of the team team one of
ones so it'd be cool to see what he can what he can do promo wise. I know he made some. That's Rap Ninja.
Can't keep up with all the.
And we got. A lot of brew crew, man.
Of you never know who you'll.
Or who will grow themselves in a space.
Like. Alicia. She has to be. Probably the wealthiest. of you never know who you'll you'll meet in a space or who who will grow themselves in a space like uh
alicia she has to be probably the wealthiest kid with nfts for her age originally met her
in a mega death space she came in oh yeah she got a hog now you've got like what do you have in your nft collection alicia i don't know 44
entities right now 44. she's got some mega desk she's got vick she's got hogs she's got cyber
apes she's got probably bedtime she's up all over the place who knows she's doing
what's up what's up scrat what's up scrat
that's funny that's that's funny i like your new nickname well good for you kid
good for you just hold on to those you know they're gonna make you income they're gonna
be worth a lot and you've got a huge head start on a lot of people your age in the in your web 3 journey that you do
You know, I'm sitting here getting in,
testing some of the game stuff today with everybody.
We have to send over our legal opinion letter
that has all the attorney verification of the contracts
of all of our partners for the IP.
And then we get to go live. I spoke with all of our partners for the IP. And then we get to go live.
I spoke with all of them today,
asked them what was the hurdle with, you know,
going live, what would be the issues.
They came back today, gave us, you know,
The only thing we need from you is something
from your attorneys that states that you have
the ability to use the IP for all the partnerships
that you have in your stuff, which I said, no problem. We have all those contracts, but
as soon as the attorney is done with that tonight, we send that over and we're good
to get turned on. So I'm very, very excited that they were doing all their final review
checkoffs. And that was the one thing that they were like i don't know why we haven't collected this yet but uh we need this and so uh we're gonna get that situated today
and then get ready to turn on the world i mean everybody can already go in from um on pc but you know we gotta make big moves can't do you uh now that you're switching because you're
you're before you were on the beta systems and it was too big so now you've got it sorted you're
going on their main main servers you know public network um they going to go and do that review anyways before we go by the end of our beta.
But since we are going live on their primary networks, they did ask us to get those last
little compliance things done for them.
So that way nobody in their departments would be stressed.
And so, I mean, it's fair that they ask and and we're just
you know comply and get everything done and keep moving i mean the end of the day that's what this
is about building out an ecosystem and seeing how big we can make this and uh it's pretty exciting
yeah we're all stoked over here man like it's uh can't wait to show you the final
version of some of the the npcs and the the lady hogs i dropped a couple sneak peeks but
they're far far from being finished but they're going to be cool to
to get in the game and we're working on some items for the marketplace. So we're very excited, very excited.
Do you anticipate for people that have Xbox PlayStation when they,
when they do turn on the beta there, same thing,
kind of like a hundred at a time or a certain number at a time or.
go on public it is open for everyone they don't need a code or or anything from no nothing you
just go and click download holy shit that's awesome been wishlist for a long time and i can't wait turn it on and download button
let's go oh one more it's been such a long one
just imagine for you dude it's definitely been a long road
It's definitely been a long road.
How many people are you at that are on the wish list between the two systems?
On Steam, we have 3.9 million.
On PlayStation, we have 1.6 million.
Top hat were you saying the other day
You were talking about Axie Infinity
They didn't get any more than that
Because they had a barrier to entry
Where it was very very costly To go in and play that game because you had to buy
three nfts to be able to enter the game
and they made how how much did they make at the peak of of that game oh they were 2021 they made
1.3 billion okay wait they net netted 1.3 billion that let's let's make sure that we have clarification
on that because most people don't understand that net net is after investor payout that's after
stock payouts that's after everything the company then after all their stuff netted 1.3 billion
yeah and then they got hacked and then they got hacked yes yeah and lost 650
their actual numbers from what we ended up talking with a one of their members of their team the other
day was right around 54 billion dollars but their investors literally had like 81 of the share and
then what they have to pay out to all the users and all the
other stuff that they had.
It was pretty intense for them.
You know, I did talk with them quite a bit.
They were pretty open actually.
I thought that they would be a little bit more reserved actually in everything and they
They said, look, these were the hurdles we ran
through these were the issues that we had part of the issue that the biggest issue that they had was
their investors had so much of the market share that it actually had them cutting some corners because after taxes, after everything
that they had to worry about
operational things and a few others.
And yeah, some things that they would have changed
would have made a little bit different.
I mean, a lot of things that it's a big insight for us to look into
and make sure that we don't ever you know trip on our own feet either
that that's what being in this space and having a a lot of collaboration and communication and you
know having that ability to be in with with groups and talk to some of these other founders you know
and i think that a lot of these other founders
actually have a very big appreciation for me to ask them
and say, hey, look, you guys were very big pioneers
in the launch of a lot of these products back in the day
and were about to launch.
And could you tell me the things
that was very hurtful towards your company and what caused issues in the company?
So that way, me as a new person developing it in this space, I don't want to run into those and have so many issues.
And it came off very, very nice with these guys.
They were like, you want to know what want what yeah you want it i'll give
you an hour of my time and being able to sit down and have that level of communication with some of
these people have just been amazing and you know you really get to kind of weigh out like what the
evaluation of what you're building is also because when that happens you you get to see where you're at versus where they were.
And yes, the market isn't necessarily the same as what it was back then, but it's very
comforting to know that, hey, we're in a position now that we could take over.
I mean, a lot of people were just in this were just a little bit ago.
And one of our new devs happens to have a product.
But I'm like, look, like we need to patent this and I'd love to patent it and pair it up with one of the other items that I have.
And let's make a deal. And.
He was like, you want to know it? Yeah, let's do it.
And that's exciting for me because this is a very, very key component in web three that when everybody finds out about it, that there's going to,
there's definitely going to be some salt going on real quick here,
like massive amounts of salt. And it's kind of a big play.
And some people, like I said, there's definitely going to be some
hate coming in. I'm definitely going to get some hate mail. I can see it now
already. But that's okay.
Well, that already but uh that's okay well that that sounds like good news for for unreal kingdoms and and everyone involved um it it was definitely some some good good news you It plays out very well
with what we're looking to do
I mean, some people that were in Discord
know what it is, but I'm not going to
openly, publicly put it out there.
I'll talk to you guys in Discord about it.
You're about to see something happen that is gonna be absolutely fucking hilarious and now mind you we are gonna have to fundraise probably about
i think i can cover half of it so we'll probably have to fundraise about 20 grand for it to be done
but it's he's already built it.
He already has first in summary with it.
I'm going to have the provisional put in by tomorrow,
but it'll be all the PCT filings that we have to have done with it.
And once that's complete,
it's really going to be freaking hilarious to see what happens here.
to see what happens here um and and that's that's from uh oh my ears are just burning now i gotta
i gotta figure this out but that's uh when you see this in discord you're gonna be like
what the absolute fuck so that's from one of your new devs i've seen that you did a huge uh
so that's from one of your new devs i've seen that you did a huge uh expansion on the team
you hired like i think like five five new people house seven new seven new how's that going how are
they adjusting out everything for you guys too this is we want to be able to make sure that
we have more devs in to accommodate the features, the needs, the wants
of the community and our partners. I mean, at the end of the day, we're our promise. Everybody is
to build for the community and be there with everybody and to do it transparently and live.
So in that process, you know, here we are having to look at how to build this out for everyone
and to make it equitable for everybody too.
And I guess that's kind of a little bit different for most people to hear and deal with
because it is very, very unique.
And as you can just see what I just sent you,
as you know, we own the crypto transactions
for Unity, Unreal, and WebGL.
And this one piece getting added to it
is going to be astronomical for the future
on what we're able to roll out
and what we're able to do.
And now that you get to read it, Graham, you're probably like,
it seems like an obvious thing too,
it hasn't been done on console that's uh fuck me
cool man that's that's fucking awesome
any other big alpha we can we can sneak out of you well we we don't often get you in here so
so when we do i try to berate you with as many questions as i can but love having you man
um you know it it's just that these are are the very trying times. These are the difficult pieces that have to get put into everything that we're doing.
I mean, we knew what we were stepping into.
We knew what we were trying to get done.
We know what the deliverables are.
And honestly, I mean, I really can't complain about much.
I mean, yeah, we still have a few things
that are going to cost us a pretty penny.
But in the next few weeks,
this shit's about to be absolutely hilarious.
I did put up a few things for mall spaces,
cheap deals for some people.
there's not too much that you guys don't know.
I mean as everybody knows the goal of what
we're doing is to be able to put this out for the world.
To get a bunch of things done and updated and pushed out that, you know,
become equitable for all of our partners and for ourselves and for the community.
And I think I'm kind of excited to see what we're going to get done here for the future.
Looking good. get done here for the future it's looking looking good looking good so and also like
i also right now the magic even are starting to put the collections back up i can see two
of the collections up there and uh just waiting for the base aid collection to go back up
so did you so that they do have our listing coming up now. Mark has already sent over all their stuff.
They will have it back up here shortly.
So now when you type in CyberApe Yacht Club,
it still shows it has a Magic Eden ID on it.
But yeah, that should be resolved here in the next 72 hours, I would guess.
Yeah, that should be resolved here in the next 72 hours, I would guess.
Did you hear back from Yuga about...
They were not the ones that filed the trademark.
At least that's what they're telling us.
They're backpedaling. That's what it sounds like to me just an opinion from their firm so they don't know oh yeah
that is funny it must have been a user request and i said well that's crazy because the the people over at
magic eden said that it came from you guys so uh who's right who's wrong how are we getting this
resolved they were like well we we we're not going to respond to their their 14 day you know thing
that they sent us and i said okay well that's fine and dandy and all, but they're telling me you guys sent it from your email.
So if we're not back up after the 14 days,
then we're going to start looking at damages.
And if that means that we have to subpoena Magic Eden
to find out who at your corporation did it,
I have no problem doing it.
They've been pretty cordial.
I mean, and that's really what we want is the space to be cordial more than anything.
I mean, there's no, the only people that win in a court case is the attorneys.
And yeah, we shelled out $300,000 to attorneys
to be able to be ready for this battle,
which then is not being a battle.
There's no refund on retainers.
Yeah, that was kind of a punch to the face for this month that I wasn't expecting.
But, I mean, we've figured out a lot.
We've figured out a lot of solutions.
We're getting through everything.
You know, little setbacks.
I mean, we've expected to have a lot more than what we've had.
The team that's been in, and we're testing out all these guys in development to see how good they are.
You know, we want some very good quality people.
As everybody knows, our devs are paid very, very, very well when they become a full dev with us.
So I'm very interested to see how these guys do.
do i'm very interested to see you know what value they bring to the the team and if they are bringing
I'm very interested to see, you know, what value they bring to the team.
solid quality value then as everybody knows 30 goes to the community 30 goes to the devs
you know that are our full employees with us that they they're
we're essentially setting up devs for the rest of their lives
for the rest of their lives.
Because if you have happy developers
that are in there and developing
and staying on top of everything,
you can build one of the biggest systems in the world
and it can just be amazing.
But you have to have that choice
You have to sit back and constantly,
you're taking a beating everywhere you go.
It doesn't matter who you are in this space. When you're going up against the big boys like Yuga and Pudgies and all the others that are even there that are out there, I mean, you're going to get hate.
You're going to get haters.
You know, we are going to roll out the mobile system probably in about three weeks.
Soon as everything's solid with the networks being live, we will start to do the compiles and allow people to start coming in and doing the testing with us on mobile, which is what I'm very, very excited for because it's going
to open up massive, massive markets for us.
But it also means that we also have to make sure that everything's right and tight and
secured, which is part of the reason why we're doing the 2FA systems and everything.
and yeah, I'm pretty excited for this.
And yeah, I'm pretty excited for this.
Mobile, mobile's huge, man.
And I keep coming back to like the numbers, like, you know,
just the numbers with Axie Infinity,
the numbers with how many people are on the wishlist for Steam and X or
PlayStation with Unreal Kingdoms.
And then, you know, speaking of mobile games,
I think it was like eight years ago and I was hooked on this game on my phone where you build up a city and you had to, you know, you could do it by taking your time, but you had to buy speed ups.
And because I wanted to be the top dog or whatever, I built up this huge kingdom.
And then if you fell asleep without a shield on, your kingdom could get destroyed and all your guys in a hospital
yeah you know and and i can say i'm that glutton for punishment too i mean you go and look at uh
solo leveling right now i'm i'm one of the top 10 in the world and everybody's like oh and i'm like
yeah but i've spent 500 bucks on the game you know like and it's only been out for four months but i've spent 500 bucks on it
you know and i'm sitting here going motherfuckers they got me
just because i want to be that badass you know i want to be the guy that's able to go in and be
like okay yep we're going into the arena and then people walk in and they're like oh fuck totally totally i i added up i think
i spent around three thousand dollars in a year and a half on this game oh yeah it hurt me a few
times man i uh i remember i was at this camp finally got service log in dropped my shield
started attacking people doing stuff so tired from working all day I fell asleep with my
phone in my hand I wake up log back in everything's on fire a month's work is destroyed so I'm like oh
better better put some more cash back into the game you know what I mean and it's it's like one
of those things like it was like my it was my thing when i was on the road and working a lot like that was
my little thing i i just did for myself and it was my game and it was on my phone right so it was
with me all the time right yeah and graham it's like this like this grave it's like this and
that code i believe you said this the other day seeutable, they got 5.8 million players in there
across their platform with all the different games.
And the average monthly spend in there on your skins
and weapons or whatever per player is $800 a month.
Yeah, they have one of the highest turnovers.
And all these people are crypto.
These are all crypto people.
And they don't even have a section for consoles yet so imagine we get to be in this section all by ourselves that is for pc
mobile and consoles yeah well one thing i've heard over my last few years in web 3 and i've heard it a lot is people are
like we got to bring web 2 to web 3 and a lot of people have said it a lot of people have tried in
different ways but i i can't see a bigger way of doing it than what you guys got going on on with unreal kingdoms because gaming especially since covid it's it's just gone up it's an
industry that's always gone up and it's gone up dramatically in the last five years and that's
where you know a whole huge percentage of the planet games and that you know adding the web 3 aspect and everything to it
like i think it's it's just going to change how a lot of things are done it's going to open
people's eyes to you know different things and it's a it's a huge move man so
appreciate everything you guys are doing and we're just thrilled to be a part of it.
Well, I appreciate everybody that's been here.
I appreciate everybody that has been building with us.
I mean, it hasn't been easy, been tough,
but we've always figured out getting it done it done i mean all the hurdles and all
the the heartache and the headache and and all the things that could go wrong that have gone wrong
we we figured out the solutions for and made it happen you know these are are the reasons why we
we've been so successful but it's it's gonna take a little bit more time. I, you know, that there are going
to be some, some changes that go on. There are going to be some upgrades that go on. We're
expanding and furthering the development nonstop. But I mean, the one thing that everybody can
always count on is, is we're always going to be there doing it bigger,
better, faster, and stronger.
And we're transparent about everything that we're doing and how we're doing it.
And you know, it's going to be pretty amazing.
I am looking forward to the future.
100%. 100 100 so we got uh we got some cool news for anyone who's stacking hogs getting ready for
for the future here we are doing another one we've done a few of them
but we're doing another buy one get one over the memorial day weekend. So we're gonna kick that off
Tomorrow I believe just let me get yes 12 12.01 a.m. Tomorrow morning morning early early
All the way till Monday night 11 59 p.m
The awesome amazing promotion guys do not miss out on this one and then once you met then you
go on our discord and get yourself some hog points and enter the raffle to win this amazing
one of one and i'll get the post up there to show you guys that one of one that we're giving away
dope as hell hell yeah graham yeah there'll only be a so many of these left right like you heard the man himself beta
is going to be live mobiles coming so as this gets gets out there more you know we're you know
because it changes the project rate when you're you know there's obviously a huge potential for a revenue source
from being a part of unreal kingdoms and everything they're doing
so the the money isn't all from the mint right so you know right now we are using funds of the mint to
you know help develop marketplace items and and characters and pay off some bills and other
things. But as we get closer and more going, we're going to raise that mid price and there's
going to be a whole bunch of people that can get in there, right? So we will have
some updates on how the hogs can earn for you if you uh use the ims system you'll have to
retweet repost it's not a security so you will have to do work to earn earn in game but it is
an entry point into unreal kingdoms that is right now at 0.029 eth to get a hog so fairly reasonable
fairly cheap actually if you think about the potential of of what everything that's going on
like what you could earn and get rewards from so yeah if you're if you're on the fence or if you're thinking about stacking
some hogs you've got another shot to do it over memorial day weekend we will be doing the buy one
get one so start a ticket let us know and we'll we'll double check and get you your second hog
for sure yeah and i posted up top graham the um compliments of
rocket ship thank you brother i posted up top of that one of one that's going to be in that raffle
it's pretty dope he's got a he's got like uh dynamite in his hand it's pretty awesome
pretty awesome one of one we'll definitely check that out guys so there's there's a hundred of one of ones in the collection and it's really cool you guys are
going to start seeing we got uh each each member of the team has a one of one hog and they're
making their own lore and trying to come up with their own quests
i know you guys are gonna get a kick out of seeing some of the
some of the one-on-ones come to life and and we'll start putting it out there on twitter and doing some backstories and different stuff but it's it's gonna be cool it's gonna be a cool way to introduce some future characters that are coming to the game.
For example, Sergeant Swine.
Yeah, for a second there. You're good now.
Not for me, Graeme. You came through clear. I can hear you. Go ahead.
graham you came through clear i could hear you go ahead well good good
yeah i was gonna say like uh sergeant swine there can you top it that's fucking right
swine's gonna knock all them gamers into shape with his boot camp inside hog city and we are
calling it hog city right now we've done away with the thing we don't want to offend any bible flashers out there etc etc should i say we want to keep it all clean you know hell city
i don't think we'll get a lot of muslims playing the game not too sure about that what do you think
their visit yeah i mean just gonna run around with a big character i mean really you know um
call as you see it call as you see it man you know and yeah so it's going to be
interesting so it's kind of like just to give everybody an idea because they probably don't
exactly know what's going on uh the um the actual um uh the one of ones that the team have been
given by uh by graham uh they're going to be npcs in the game and they're going to be quest givers
um so i believe that all of us who hold those right now are going to be writing quests,
even though we've never written quests before.
Well, hey, what's ChatGPT and Grok for?
Exactly these type of things.
You don't have to sit down there and get a big metal blockage like fucking Stephen King
when he's trying to write a fucking novel number 17.
And like, oh, my God, what am I going to type on my typewriter?
So all you got to do is uh anybody
that's having any issues there is just uh go into the uh chat gpt and just say uh create a
fucking game a quest game based on blah blah blah blah blah uh now uh obviously graham and i think
everybody is getting their stories together for their character i was the first one to get mine
out there astro came in second uh big kid did his and i've seen a few others coming big kids got
big kids got his out there yeah so i've seen a few others coming in there because what we want
to do is we want to get them a summary of those we are not giving those we are not giving those
to rap ninja his head will explode he's not going to read that it's too too long to read
uh english is not his first language uh he may sound really cool when he's typing in english but
i think he may be using a little bit of a translator to make sure uh it is perfected
when he is responding to us in that chat uh but uh he is the 3d animator and i think along the
lines i just i just try to keep it simple with him and just say said i i give him a lot of leeway
because he is extremely creative and i've just said to him just imagine uh the introduction
to these one of ones as like uh even like a pokemon card like a trading card and just make
it come to life uh have a few have a few words about who they are what they do uh pop up on the
screen in text make it dynamic and get some fucking cool background music uh in there you know uh hog
style uh guitar riffs whatever as long as we're using music and i'm
not sure i think the music we can use we can find some basic tunes that are not copyright and then
we can throw them in there as well well yeah it's a great way to to really get people to be creative
on the team and and bring some team morale up and add a a little bit of everyone's
own flavor right like we tried to uh tried to give out one of ones that match people's personalities
a little bit you'll notice uh thanks graham sergeant swine has a gatling gun thanks biggest
gun in the collection i think i think code's got a gatlin gun one of one as well has he
yeah i don't think i ever gotten again it's not about the size of the gun top dad
yeah somebody thought yeah i think somebody said you had a one of them six barrel guns because
there's two in the collection grain that they're holding out there one-on-ones right
i'd have to double check but well you need to be very very limited to me
let's put graham in the barrel and roll them down the hill graham's lying under the bus right now
yep no i do have a gatling gun yes I do there you go yeah that's it
that's actually I have a plasma rifle and a laser knife
a laser knife like a like a lightsaber what are you talking about it's a knife
it's a plasma knife it's got the blades lit up
yeah that's pretty that's pretty awesome i got that same knife with my cave my alien cave hog
and a hacker laptop that's sick yeah yeah we pretty much knew that when we saw that one we're
like yep that's codes hacker laptop yep definitely yep that's cool but yeah it's gonna be cool when
everyone can can kind of create their own their own even some rewards for the quest, too.
They're kind of designing some items and some rewards,
some really cool stuff that's going on with those one-of-ones in the game.
It's going to be really cool.
So, Visit, listen, you're an avid gamer.
So when our one-of-ones is questing the game and the gamers come in,
the gamers approach the one-of-ones and the one-of-ones, the NPCs, give and the gamers come in, the gamers approach the one-on-ones, and the one-on-ones,
the NPCs give them the quest.
Sorry, will that be spoken?
I mean, is the NPC going to be able to speak,
or will it be a text thing that pops up and tells them what to do?
Well, obviously, it probably started out with text at the beginning,
but eventually we'd like to have cut scenes and have them talk because that would be really epic and awesome and amazing.
I'm sure that would be really cool.
That creates better interaction for sure.
Yeah, because we would definitely want to kind of have the personality of the hogs kind of built from the owners of the hogs to kind of create their own individual.
You know, if someone's funny, you you know kind of lazy or laid back or just
you know goofy or you know you never know i mean just kind of want to have some variety of all that
in there give them a personality based on the owner yeah exactly yep everything everything we
do we obviously have to run it by the developers at Unreal Kingdom.
So, you know, these are just ideas we're coming up with
and we're going to present them in an organized fashion to Code and Team.
But I don't know if that's something you foresee
in some of the other worlds you're building? Or how do you see the future coming for different NPCs in the game code?
So there's going to be a lot of different pieces that will be happening
as we do more and more development.
And so, I mean, do I see that this could be something
that absolutely just goes bananas here in the next couple weeks?
It's just, like I said, this is going to be an ever-evolving system, an ecosystem.
So it's always going to be moving.
It's always going to get built different and have additional features and everything else moving in that.
different and have additional features and everything else moving in that in that so um
yeah i i mean i i'm i'm very interested to see how far we can make some things go and uh
it should be pretty exciting well that that's a good point like it's uh it's an ever-evolving system so like
even if some things start out simple in the hogs world like it doesn't mean we can't
work towards that especially as as more income and development comes in right right? That is correct.
We want that ever-evolving space to be there and available for everybody too.
And so there are some people that are like, oh, well, this could be more. Well, everything can always have more.
I mean, that's the reality of it.
For us, we're always going to be expanding on that to have more.
And for us, we're always going to be expanding on that to have more.
So, you know, for us, it's a very, you know, we can't just sit back and say, oh, it's only going to be one or two things that need to be changed to make something happen, to make something different, to do X, Y, and Z.
It might be something that it can be easily changed and we can get it done in 15 minutes.
changed and we can get it done in 15 minutes. It might be something though that is not a 15 minute
process, could take a couple weeks to build out and to get done and updated and the piece is moving.
So I mean it could be any of that. So I mean I don't know. Like I said,
everybody can submit something. We can go in and we can look at it we can see what the time frame
is going to take and then we can choose to build on it from there yeah totally and like sometimes
just to start i don't know like sometimes in my experience keeping it simple
to start and then evolving and growing it is, is a way to go to rate.
Like I know in one of our meetings we talked about just, it's like, yeah,
we can, we can get you guys an FBX file, but it's like.
To do the little animations to make, you know,
like everything takes time and there's, there's a cost to time, right.
Yeah. And that's the other thing. Like a lot of people don't understand this is it's like yes like do people pay for worlds yes but
what's the limitation on what they paid for the world you know that's the other aspect like okay
like like we're doing a whole zombie horde system and everything and that takes so much work because it's not just like a regular npc world dynamic system that's out you have now to have a world controller
you have to have so many additional pieces that are going to be there so you have ais built out
for every different type of mob creature, scenario, landscape, movement, nav meshes.
Then you also have to put in all the different ammo systems, you name it.
It goes on and on and on.
When you start to look at how big we are and compared to, for instance, World of Warcraft,
our compile is almost six and a half times the size of World of Warcraft
that's been developing for 25 years. Yeah, it's huge. It's crashing. It's crashing betas. It's
it's never been done before. It's a huge amount of work and a giant world and it's going to keep getting bigger and uh
bigger and better um yeah even like a gun firing like there's there's animation to that
there's sound to it there's recoil recoil there's systems when you're swapping weapons the swap trade
recoil their systems when you're swapping weapons the swap trade
yeah it all it all takes time i know even even doing like uh
like on our website where the hogs are just turning their heads and moving a bit like
that was uh animation that they use 3ds max and it it gets a very small animation and it was just mostly the camera
moving around while they did like really small movements but even that costs that cost money
just to make a small animation right like well and then you gotta also remember like we're also
building out like for motorcycles movements and many more I mean all
those things allow for shooting from the motorcycle plus recoil I mean there there's there's 50 things
that get put into yeah don't forget don't forget the empty cases fall and now also code
Don't forget the empty cases
You fire the fucking bullets, man.
developer here for a second.
Go for it, Foxy Seagulls.
always comes back to, does that it for more fun is so is that is
that worth is that worth the the price of that it costs right everything everything in games comes
down to roi right right making games is hard man and oh i'm not gonna be it'll take me 15 years to get a return on my 30 million
that i've put in i mean and that's okay i mean yeah and that's just because everything that we
have goes out to us you know we have the majority of it goes out to our holders and to our development
team and that's because at that point you know it is you're absolutely correct it is based on roi
um you know and this is why when I tried to explain to people,
most people don't understand to build a full game normally costs right around,
if you're going enterprise level, like what we're putting out,
it'll cost you between $30 and $100 million.
$55 million to be able to build one.
To do what you're trying to do with an MMO.
Talk about, you know, I've done two MMOs and it's heartless.
And there's no love for it.
Everyone is, you know, everybody thinks that you can just click your heels.
And especially we are a fully replicated system too.
And we are the first fully replicated flexible combat system
that is also being put out in the world too.
So when you start to look at large scale MMO fully replicated,
people don't understand the CDN networks
People don't understand all the cloud handlers
for UDP connections that have to be done,
which those are very niche private markets.
Like they charge out the ass for it
because there's only three or four providers
And you're going UDP because there's only three or four providers in the whole world.
And you're going, you need to do data super fast.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've lived this life.
You know, and this is why when I try to go
through and I explain to people how much
like, people don't know what it's like
for me to have to come up with
$340,000 a month every month.
When our project doesn't bring in $40,000 a month on average, you know?
And that's also the weird thing about the game space is that, like, films, right?
Like, you've got to, there's this all upfront cost.
And then maybe you'll get a return, right?
I just want to introduce you guys a little more officially.
This is Chris Siegel, the founder of Short Fuse Games,
and this is Drew Mundorf code compiler the founder of
cyber ape yacht club and unreal kingdoms so nice to meet you nice to meet you too we can chat at
some point i'm very interested in listening to what you're you guys are working on we got we got
a lot of cool things going on and we're looking to pair them up with other
founders and other groups too.
that have a bunch of mobile side games
that they are willing to also
Unreal and turn their games
into an actual PC game also.
So that way it is mobile and PC and then joining up with us.
And so, I mean, there's a lot of big things that are going on in the next few months.
And I'm pretty excited for it.
You know, it's like next week we're going to the Bitcoin conference.
We're sitting down with a few people that want to do investments.
But the biggest thing that I always look at is, you know, we had the opportunity to take investors at the beginning.
But they wanted 50 to 65% of the company's revenue.
They didn't care about the sharehold.
They cared about the revenue.
That's not a sustainable model.
Yeah, that's the deal that we got offered by Gala.
And that, you know, we've had similar, you know,
and this is why when I sit back
and I tried to explain to people like,
why not build this to where it's a metaverse in the ecosystem space that,
If we can get somebody in on a low cost entry to be able to build out their worlds, build out their marketplace, allow them to be in.
And then 30% of whatever's a process transaction through the marketplace
goes towards your updates, your game development and the
community now these other partners don't have to worry about cost and overhead for any period of
time they don't have to worry about making sure that that the devs are getting paid they don't
have to worry about bandwidth they don't have to worry about the servers they don't have to worry about the servers. They don't have to worry about nothing, but they're also in that space covering the cost of future development and future build out and future
expansion and future upgrades that it makes it to where it's advantageous for everybody,
especially since most people don't have to come in with a quarter of a million dollars to get their game built out i mean i have three
activision devs that are on our team that come in and have been kicking ass last few days it's like
that the very last few hurdles that we've had with for instance pack system the pack files
happen to be under eight gigs to go on playstation's public network and xbox's public network and i'm like our full
compile is over 82 and we haven't even opened up like we have 45 other worlds still to open up
that we haven't even allowed our demo people to play in yet because they're already built
yeah you might have to look into some sort of streaming or, you know, there are solutions
But yeah, like I said, man, games are hard.
There's always problems that you're not thinking of on day one that come up on day 50.
Well, you know, and then happen to do a Visual studios update compile on 7.6 terabytes of game
right that's not even the assets that's that's the game and then you do your unreal update and
everything breaks and oh yeah yeah yeah yeah but that's why it's fun i mean let me be honest like
the problem solving part of game design is you you know, like making the game and like coming up with the ideas is all fun. Everybody loves to be creative like that. But the other part is like when you get into the mystery of like solving some of these problems, it's just as rewarding. It's like being a Sherlock Holmes. Yeah. Yeah.
That's, that's actually the biggest thing that I love is like,
sometimes we'll add in like different plugins, different, you know,
things that are out there and we're, we're still rocking on 5.4.3.
I mean, we haven't upgraded to 5.5 yet. And normally we don't, we spend,
we let those come out for six months.
And the reason for it is,
is that way everybody else can problem solve all the plugins and other things before we have to go in and do it because absolutely uh and we i've done full
projects that we do not update the uh the engine uh you know oh yeah i know projects that are still
on 4.2.8 yeah yeah yeah and i'm like whoa like we're in the five series now you're not willing to upgrade fuck now and i'm like oh
wow that's crazy you know we ended up going in and making like i think even for epic for their
compile when it when 5.4.3 came out we had out of their 265 crash reported items there 182 of them we fixed within the first 36 hours
and then gave them the solution to update their stuff you know so this is where i'm like damn my
dev team's in there kicking ass and taking names right it feels good but like this new upgrade to
5.5 i want i want to pull the trigger on it,
but I think I'm going to do it after, you know, we go fully live,
after the marketplace is running smooth and where we'll have two weeks
that we don't have to worry about putting out an update for somebody
and take a full backup in case it doesn't work
and make sure that that's sitting off on a fully separated drive away from
everything, making sure that we have a full backup of, you know, even the Epic source files before
those get changed and then doing, doing the update. You know, and now it's like, okay,
we're going on public networks and. And the last piece on the checklist
is making sure that we have a legal service,
a legal opinion letter stating that we have
the usage rights of the IP of our partners,
which, I mean, they've all signed contracts
that state, hey, yes, that in the game
that they utilize it and usage of those IPs.
And the consoles have been okay with you being web-free?
Well, I mean, that cost me almost $12 million in legal to go through everything to make it to where we could qualify for it.
We are going to be the guinea pig for PlayStation and Xbox with Web3.
We looked into it a little bit at gala and it you know
eric didn't have the stomach for it well yeah you're gonna you're gonna i mean we spent 12
million in legal just to them say okay yeah we'll we'll we'll do this but we want to be able to have
visual access to these pieces of code and making sure that it's done. We want to make sure that you have your own exchange
that is a hosted exchange that is also secured.
And so it was like, all right, well, then we also had to go.
And now we have a white label of ours,
and it's the same group that does crypto.com
and a few others for theirs.
And so once we got that opinion letter,
they were like, all right, well,
Then, you know, now all of a sudden,
you know, it's always that
who they can put their blame on
as long as it doesn't come back
I own all of the crypto transactions
for Unity, Unreal, and WebGL,
which is about to really hurt people's feelings
And then I have one more piece that's coming in
that we'll be filing the PCTs for on Monday.
I mean, I still have to fundraise
a little bit of money for that.
But with those PCTs going out for this new patent that will be added into it,
we're going to piss off a lot of people.
I also own all of the RTMP streaming for Unity, Unreal, and WebGL, which is also kind of funny because I also have the PCTs for those.
And for the ProvaBlyFair system, which is what all gambling licensed casino requirements are, is the ProvaBlyFair platform, we own all that for Unity, Unreal, and WebGL also.
is the provably fair platform.
We own all that for Unity, Unreal, and WebGL also.
So we are going to be a very big licensing service
also here in the next few weeks.
And it's just about building out the teams
and building out the right people
and putting the right people in place
and trying to get it all done
before I run out of all my capital.
My wife just said, it won't happen, baby. But, you know,
yeah, it's a lot of work and a lot of stress. And it's been a lot of fun. And being with, you know, partners that are here. HC Hogs has been amazing. But I mean, they've always stayed
on top of everything that's there. There's so many people that are down below here that are here. HC Hogs has been amazing. I mean, they've always stayed on top of everything that's there.
There's so many people that are down below here
that are in our community also,
the Cyber Apes that have just always been here building it
and taking the next level with us.
And that's what this was meant to be,
is finding the right ecosystems of people
that are worthwhile to be in this space to build.
And then when everything's done, we're going to take over a few additional items.
And I hope to create a system that allows for people to even be building their own worlds on our platform.
And if they are voted and approved on, they would be turned into a real world.
And so we are planning on doing like world highlights.
I'm going to make a tower that will be for world highlights for people to
be able to be that developer in this space.
Be able to make their own custom world and we can then have it brought into our ecosystem and
uploaded and people can go in and game test it and if they like it then it could even be an evolving
piece in our world you know and just to to bring the community up levels upon levels upon levels
and be able to sit here with these other founders
and our goal was always about building with the communities building with people taking it two
three four steps further and everyone else and people sit back and say well it's fucked up that
you patented all these other things and if i didn't somebody else would have. Exactly. So, I mean, some people can make me out to be the bad guy.
But, I mean, even if like Gala were to come to me and say, hey, Code, you want to know it?
We see that you have that.
You know, it's not in our budget at the moment to be able to get it done.
Cool. You want to know it? Well, let's get you access.
I'll put you on a, you know, 12 months free.
So that way you can make that budget and you get to utilize our products
during that time. I'm okay with that.
My community is okay with that because we're here to be builders in this
Who's Gala dude? You probably want to charge him.
Well, I know that Gala doesn't know. Well, I know Gala does
know that I own the RTMP streaming for Unity, Unreal, and
WebGL. We haven't pushed against gala yet
because we we have had some conversations with gala um like i said fighting multi-millionaires
when i'm the one bleeding out millions at the moment is not necessarily the big thing i want to do
but no you don't want eric's very litigious too
oh i i i have some of the best attorney firms on file i mean i don't think you go yuga didn't want
to pick a fight with me after they made a mistake i don't think that they want to either gala gala
knows who our attorney firms are and they have some pretty big attorney firms.
But, for instance, our patent attorney is the number one patent attorney in the country.
And he's very meticulous about how he words things.
Sorry, my wife's new puppy is speaking to her.
Yeah, 12 weeks old and 62 pounds.
So she rescued a Cane Corso female.
Now, my wife's not a big female dog lover, but she saw her, saw that, you know, she had this cute little face.
And she just, my wife was like, oh, here, you got to go to this location, gave me an address.
And I was like, oh, what for?
And then halfway down the road, she's like, so what are we going to name her?
So now her name is Solana.
To go with crypto and Ethereum that I have here at my house.
She a little argumentative puppy, but she uses her voice a lot,
but she's a sweet, sweet, sweet girl.
So, yeah, I'm kind of glad we rescued her.
She needed a new home. i love dogs dude my uh
oldest stepdaughter she's got spina bifida and she got a when she's younger they weren't sure
if she's gonna make it she's 23 now she's doing good but she's got like a shunt in her brain and
and some other challenges that have made life a little harder for her.
So she got a Make-A-Wish thing and she wished for a dog, a Pomeranian.
So Make-A-Wish got her a Pomeranian and his name's Pepsi.
We've had him for 10 years.
And that guy's like parents have like,'re like because make a wish goes all out so
they got like he's got show dog parents in like that have won competitions in the states
and this dog man like if he looks at a female she's pregnant like i don't think he's
taking a swing and not not hit a home run like he's
it's it's puppies every time right so typically we give you know the puppies to the we keep one
or sell like to sell or or whatever and the last two batches i've i've kept two of the puppies and
i never thought i'd be that that big six foot two guy with, with tiny little Pomeranians, but that's,
that's my life now. I got three of them running around,
just hair everywhere in my house. It's funny.
I had Huskies growing up and St. Bernard's growing up and it was one of those types of worlds where
you know being in a military family it was always our job to be the one out there cleaning up after
them and I always was like yeah I'm never gonna have big big dogs again and then my wife was like, so, uh, triple XL pit bull. And, uh, he's a 80 grand. And I went,
yeah, okay. Get fucked. I'm not spending 80 grand on a dog. You got me fucked up. And she goes,
got me fucked up. And she goes, no, no, the owner is, uh, got COVID and, uh, he's going to be in,
he's in the hospital. And he said that since I talked with him, that if I want to come and pick
him up and take him home, that, that I could have them instead of him being in a boarding facility.
The next thing you know, we have one triple XL pit bull.
Now, we have six triple XL pit bulls
Like I said, 62 pound, 12 week old.
I don't think people understand Like I said, 62-pound, 12-week-old. Boom!
I don't think people understand.
She is going to be ginormous.
But she was just too wiry for the old folks that had bought her. And so my wife was like, well, they were going to go,
and they're taking her to the pound.
Because she's she's too wiry.
And I'm like, she's a 12 week old puppy.
What the fuck do you expect is going to happen?
Like you just expected her to sit there and not do anything.
But yeah, so she got in the truck she sat on the center console
and i was like all right and then she laid down on the center console and was like let's go
well let me ask you do do your kids have to pick up dog poo at the, Oh yeah. In the backyard. Yeah.
if the only task they got to do is keep the room clean and keep,
They ain't got to do anything else.
My wife cleans the house every day.
if you, my wife was, still is a nurse,
but she has that nurse mentality, so everything is done in bleach.
You know what I'm saying?
Has anybody ever been with a nurse?
Yeah. My mom was an ER nurse for years, so I know what you're saying.
The smell of bleach has thoroughly fermented through your
your sinus cavities that's actually accurate yeah that's funny yeah and then the other thing is is
like i know some of you guys have have ladies that take hot showers right i think just about every female that i've ever known takes a hot shower
but who says that like 275 is a good fucking temperature in a hot shower like when your skin
instantly is turning red almost to a blister that's what a nurse says well it kills all the
things in the bacterias at that at that temperature and it's just enough before it turns
into a burn like what the fuck i just i don't get it i don't get it you know and this is why i'm a
developer i'm gonna stay in my shoes over here stay developing keep doing what i do best she uh she jumped in because you know bob and a bunch of others jumped in to help out
only because i have to work more on my other jobs to keep funding all the stuff for this
and it was i was getting so little sleep that my wife and a few others stepped up and said, Hey, look, like we're, uh,
we're going to make sure that you're good and that you're taken care of.
And so they, they stepped up for us and, uh,
it's, it's been pretty amazing. You know, um,
the expansion, the growth is about to be astronomical.
I'm looking forward to it.
Our team is growing nonstop.
Like I said, you can't sit back and tell me
that we're not the most transparent group
because you can even watch the game get built inside,
you know, Cyber Ape Yacht Club's Discord.
You can't tell me that we're not the most transparent group
because I've opened up my bank accounts
literally many, many times.
And I think half the people that are in CyberApe Yacht Club know my credit card number because even just two minutes ago, I was still live streaming in the video channel and just ordered one of my own developers plugins.
Instead of him just loading it to the system just because i wanted him to see that you know
we'll pay for it too um but um yeah you know it's
this is this is what web3 should have been and can be and and it's so beautiful to be able to be partnered up with hc hogs and bedtime and quirkies and three meta
three meta d um neglected labs cyber coffee wayward weenies egonauts sakurai dragon guild i mean
meta buttes we're growing really really really quick and i don't think people have an understanding that
we have two other companies that are are literally top 10 nft projects that are looking to partner with us and that's the alpha you get to hear let's go that means that guess what everyone's floor is going to be up everyone's
items are going to be up me i'm giving away the rest of my floors and bonus hunts i don't even
care like for me you can mint while you can but like i said that i didn't come into this to be
reimbursed with my nfts I came into this to build wealth for,
for 10,000 cyber apes and whether or not some hold more than others,
My goal was and is to make at least a hundred millionaires.
And that's never changed.
And I think I could do that before this time in 2027,
a hundred millionaires let's fucking go yeah man it's growing every day and there's good people and you know good people
get attracted to to other good people i'm really glad uh you got to meet chris chris i'd love for
you to share like uh some of your background and who knows,
maybe you guys could end up working together or something could happen,
I'd love to hear a bit of your,
I just wanted to let everybody know if they go up top.
we have a giveaway tonight as well.

and we're going to give that hog away tonight as well.
So I'm Chris Siegel. stuff that says and we're going to give that hug away tonight as well go ahead chris all right uh so i'm chris siegel um i've been making games since 98 i got my start at looking glass studios
on thief the dark project a little bit of system shock we're just a little bit on uncredited um
and a couple of flight sims and then really moved on into mmo the mmo space and worked on lord of
the rings and and dungeon dragons online for many many years and since then i jumped over into the
you know the indie space and uh this has been like employee two at like three companies now um you know did a little and my first stint into
the web three space was gala um and gala in their infinite wisdom decided to let us all go in december
um and we liked our team so much we were like we're not really done working together
not really done working together so here we are building another company so we really kind of just
so here we are building another company
stuck together because you know we we really get along working together and one thing that i've
learned in this is that you know when you have a good team you know magic can happen you know it's
like having a good rock band and uh you know matt and i were not ready to stop working together so
we decided to give it a shot and make our own thing
wow that's that's amazing but you know we're flat broke
yeah and you will remain there until after your game starts getting traction yes i i know the
struggle um you know a little background about me uh after i got out of the army i i went to
college ended up writing a big piece of what they call the code compiler unit um left from there
got a bunch of certifications started getting into the gaming space creating
third-party utility hacking tools and uh exploit tools and and automation tools for like ever
quest world of warcraft and many others i'm including word of the rings um allegedly um are you a gold guy and uh were you a gold guy were you were you selling gold my my game
no but i i i was i don't know gold but i i would sell the the things to automate for them to make
gold uh yeah yeah um then uh got into the the space and i was in crypto very very heavy early um
was doing huge and 30 40 and 50 you know thousand dollar transactions with btc when btc was only 18
cents a piece um and yeah you know imagine having that now all of that if yeah but um ended up going into the
space was doing really well got rugged after doing a big investment on one company right after i had
met the inner circle which was as everybody knows is yuga um was one of the first mentors of BoardApe Yacht Club,
was in a bunch of other projects
and just saw that everybody was rugging everything nonstop
And at the same time, my marketing firm was getting so big
that I was actually causing Facebook to lose ad revenue. And we turned it
all on just as they were actually launching their IPO. And we caused Facebook to essentially
take us to court with a cease and desist. And they took it to a grand jury to even see if they
could take us to court. And the judge ended up like it never even got passed, you know,
for them to do anything. Cause the judge ended up shutting it down.
And we ended up winning and got a gag order and a bunch of other stuff and
got into the space about being a disruptor and doing big data and made some
easy agreements with Facebook. Like, okay, hey, look, well, we can choose to either continue the fight
or you give me the resources to allow me to then do big data and still market,
but I'll utilize your systems in doing so so that way you guys stay happy.
You don't lose ad revenue and I stay happy over here.
And everybody came to a very mutual agreement.
Everybody was happy about it.
And started building out one of the largest big data companies in the world that is privately owned.
And had to learn everything from mainly database structuring more than anything.
Only because when you're collecting hundreds of millions of people's information every single day,
database indexing and structuring and doing everything, it turns into an absolute fucking nightmare.
And so you start to learn how to do everything.
Got rugged on two other projects, got irritated and said, you want to know it.
I've lost now about four and a half million dollars in rugs in the nft and crypto space um i'm tired of this
you know is there ever going to be a real builder out there i was actually at board apes like little
meetup and was sitting down with like 13 or 14 others and they were all like yeah okay well the
only people that could do it is you get in which in which case I said, well, why not like us? Why, why not be the cyber API club division and build out other games and got the green light and
the thumbs up? Yeah, that'd be cool. Go ahead. Go try that. Go see how well your pockets last.
And I said, okay, well, fuck it. I will. And, you know, over the next few months, there was just so
much toxicity in Yuga's groups and chats and and some people feeling
like oh my god because i own a a bored ape i i'm i'm god in this space and and it was like the
most childish thing so i ended up like leaving all those spaces and kept the name and kept the
idea going and so we decided you want to fuck it like let's let's go and and we had all these
patents and originally we weren't gonna build it we were
gonna go and try to partner with people so we partnered with the group which was dragon guild
and they had a deal with tcg world where they would have x y and z and so much funds and and
whole big thing and tcg world's contract stated that they could build anything that they wanted
in their area and everything would be great and that they could have whatever they want as long as it's protected
stuff. So I agreed to it. They agreed to it. Next thing you know, the owner of TCG finds out that
I'm the owner of these patents and I'm not going to allow him to go and put up his own casino
unless he licensed through us. And he pretty much the the whole project of of dragon guild where dragon guild
literally made 65 of the fundraised money for them to build out tcg world and the owner was being an
absolute dick and so i said you want to know it i'm gonna build the biggest baddest fucking metaverse
ever on the goddamn planet and i'm gonna make it a multiverse and
i'm gonna make it to where it dwarfs everything that you have and i'm gonna make more and more
patents and i'm gonna lock down this industry so fucking tight that you're gonna wish that you
didn't go and rub these 480 people and i'm gonna build out cyber ape yacht club and we're gonna
come in and kick everyone's ass and
That's how it started then, you know, of course you get a lot of hate you get a lot of people Oh, well if Facebook couldn't do it what makes you think you can do it if this group can't do it
What makes you think you can do it?
Well, the but is is I spend 20 hours a day seven days a week behind this fucking computer with 14 other developers
non-stop building while managing three
other businesses of my own that is allowing me to be able to fund this build out and to keep moving
forward and i didn't need any of the money from the nfts the nfts literally are a band-aid for us
like when when money is tied up for you know it, fuck, I'll get a $2 million check, but they may hold it for 21 days. You know,
the reality of it is, is, you know, that that's just how banks work, you know?
So it brings in the band-aids and it helps out with the community and the cost.
it's been about building up this dream with people and trying not to drown in the same process, you know,
because as a builder, the biggest thing that happens is that roadblock and that mental roadblock,
especially when you're doing it for 20 hours a day. And the aspect of it was to create with
everyone and to be able to give everybody that transparency
and give everything that they can and build with each other. And with it, I I've gained one hell
of a family. Like I can honestly sit back and say that there are some people that it doesn't matter
if I had $10 in my account and they need that $10. It doesn't matter. You know, if they need 15, we'll overdraft that bitch for them.
You know, like they're family, you know,
and those are the people that I enjoyed being able to build in this space with
and I look forward to making them multimillionaires with me so that way I can
sit back and finally have a group of people that are family to me that, one, don't need my money anymore
because they have enough of their own.
Two, I got a group of people that if we can come together
and say, hey, let's go build something,
nobody's going to be able to stop us
because the combined total of net worth
that we will be bringing to that table
is going to be so large it's not even funny.
And three, it's just about being here and building every day and being transparent.
I mean, I literally just gave out a $200,000 watch and AP in my Discord 45 minutes ago.
in my discord 45 minutes ago for somebody who got into our bonus hunt for $500.
I mean, where do you find that in a founder? Where do you find that in this space? Where do
you find the people that are willing to be that open and be that available. There isn't that many people because the biggest issue is,
is most of this space is about greed, how much everybody can make.
And that's the reason why, you know,
when I got with hostile and I got with bedtime and I got with everybody here,
the rules of it is, is you have to be,
you have to be that founder that cares more about your community to be able to be with us
otherwise i don't want your business i don't want your game i don't want your community
i want the people that that care about building this for the next 20 years.
I want to see this game be ready player one in real life.
And I think we'll get there.
I know we'll get there. Because I want to get there.
Hell yeah man It's like a mic drop moment
That are here that are building non-stop
And they have a good team of people that they
Those are good people that you want to be able to bring
And Chris you know once we get get going a little bit here i might come over and say hey look let
me buy you guys out and have you guys join us as a partner and you still make your own rev share
but that's the reality of it is developers have to be comfortable there's a reason why 30
of the profits that we have go to the developers why because they're the ones putting in that 20
hours a day seven days a week and it's a very unforgiving job like that i mean i have some
amazing amazing community members that are super thankful and appreciative and they let all the
devs know but but in the early days you know in the early early days of this industry there was
profit sharing um and that all died around the turn of the century which is really weird to say
turn of the century but uh but that sort of went away and you know and you know it
went away at the same time of celebrity developer and you know we don't you know who who's the lead
designer of assassin's creed i'm in the industry i have no idea right but i still remember john
romero and john carmack and whatnot and whatnot but yeah man I'm with you
because you know the one thing that's been really freeing about this
particular journey that me and stuck pixel around here is I can just be
myself I'm not carrying a company line which is very freeing and like I know
that I know the way him and I are,
we're going to take care of our people.
We don't even have money yet,
we have one of our artists that,
needed a little something,
cause we're all kind of doing this for free at the moment,
they needed a few bucks to pay the rent or whatever.
And we took care of her, you know, because, like you said, man, they're family. And,
you know, and it is a thankless job, but I've had shittier jobs, man. Like, I love making games,
and I love every aspect of it. And I might bitch and moan when I come across some problem
But the reality is that I've been going to bed happy for 20 years.
And I think that you said it better than anything.
I'll tell you what, Chris, how would you guys,
and this is just food for thought for you.
How would you guys like to join unreal kingdoms and eight galaxies and still
build your game and I'll help cover all your guys's cost.
I mean, let's talk a little more seriously.
Yeah, I'd like to know a little bit about what you're doing.
I do everything transparently.
So if it's in my brain i tell
everybody you know what you offer so that's the one thing i do tell everybody we are transparent
to a fault and some people like it some people don't like it i'd like to be able to see what we
could do possibly to help you guys out because i already have between us and joining up with a mutable 10
million people that are going to be playing our game and with that i see no reason why there's not
any room for growth for you guys to be able to join us to and get your guys's stuff in there
and rocking out and and putting money in your guys's pocket. Yeah, I'd like to pay rent.
I would definitely like to talk about it.
You know, at the end of the day, my goal is not to be rich.
I gave up on that 10 years ago.
But my goal, and I think Chris's goal at the end of the day, is make Web3 games that don't suck. Because most of them suck.
That was actually going to be our company tagline.
They're built by people who are financially motivated and not necessarily come out of the developer space out of the designer
space out of the artist space like you know you got to know something about this industry
before you can really just say i'm gonna go make a game like it's it's hard games are so fucking
hard and nobody nobody realizes that unless you've done it. Right. And most of these guys that are the big guys that are out there,
they seed funded for a couple billion.
And most of these guys have not actually fulfilled on what they say that they
There has not been a group that other than than us that i know of that has actually
gone out and done a fully replicated open world system like this
um and it like even the guys that are from activision that i've talked with the guys from alluvium i've
talked with you know big time game ceos like we've had them in our discord openly communicating in
front of everybody and every single one of them said that there's no fucking way that they would
try to even step into this space even with with their $2 and $4 billion fundraise
that they ended up getting.
You have to remember those guys,
they don't take any risks.
When you get to that level,
$100,000 loss is crippling to those businesses,
even though they make $2 billion every year.
AAA market doesn't taste take risks they're 20 years if if not 30 years behind the curve in tech
right like you have games still running on old quake engine stuff like or handwritten
freaking game engines yeah it's it's it's rough it's rough space i don't i don't blame
them for that i don't either for them being safe what i do blame is is how many people are willing
to get outside of the box how many of these guys are are ready to actually go in and and be willing
You know, that was the reason why I decided to use my own money was because guess what?
I didn't have to listen to an investor tell me what I had and couldn't do.
I didn't have to listen to somebody sit back and say, well, I want you to play it safe
because I don't want to play it safe.
I want to go and push boundaries.
I want to make it to where it's absolutely difficult for us to be
able to stay alive and a lot of people don't understand why i say that because
money will come money money will come as long as you build it for the players and me i'm a gamer like i have four monitors and i i i play like i will literally
be in i will put my own group together and go play if i like the game i'm gonna have a healer
on one screen a tank on another i'm gonna have my support on another my damage dealer on another
and i'm gonna play all four at the same time.
And people are like, bro, like that defeats the purpose.
No, if I enjoy the game, I'm okay with it.
I'm okay with people doing that in our space, you know? And, but this is the reason why we built out like AI systems to where,
you know, you can't just sit in one location and farm and think that you're
some big boss or a roaming thing that that can come through and fuck you up and kill you like
no that right that that implementation's being put in um you know do we have a few people that
are figuring out how to exploit it yep and that ai engine has been catching it nonstop and it's learning.
And you'll always have that.
And it's just part of the world of the MMO, right?
That's the fun cat and mouse.
Wait until you start dealing with the people that like, you know, figure out how to, you
know, pull the plug in 500 millisecond cycles and all sorts of up stuff
i'm the guy that built most of those like i'm the guy that was building most of those you know
when you sit back and you got to remember i'm the guy that came from the dark side
yeah you were the mouse so literally i i was the guy that that literally you know so like i have
11 ai systems for detection systems on top of game guard on top of warden that is built into
our systems that it's so funny because even if you use like keyboard macroing it will time out certain keyboard macroing too
it's so funny like and when you die your armor gets used and abused and whatever kills you can
also have the effect of what kind of damage happened to your gear which case then you have
to go spend that money you were out there farming because
you decided you were going to stay and yeah so we've we've worked out the equations to start
getting rid of like farmers and and so forth to make the game fun um and to keep it interesting
like you won't get gold if you're over a certain level over the mom at all. You might get some resources every now and then,
but you're talking like 0.085% chance you're going to get a resource
if you're that far outside of the range of killing that NPC.
Creating collaborative awareness and smart systems you know i'm very excited because
like we have the nvidia platform that we've been play testing with with their ais and
we have that thing on extreme right now and we're the only ones that are testing on extreme. And I love it because, man, you might be attacking a mob
and he all of a sudden yells out,
now you have five more mobs coming after you.
And these mobs are trying to position themselves behind you
These mobs are shooting at you with arrows.
You're not even running away without getting
messed up you know and it's great you know i believed in building out this space that
has that forever growth area but also you know make it fun for everybody don't make it to where
it's just like somebody can just sit in one spot and keep moving and not being able to farm up yeah that that those days are gone
yeah um so i'm gonna bore the rest of the call here but what does it actually look like to build
inside your system like is it is it pretty free form with technology what's what are your restrictions
so most of our server side is all api now um so anything that would be server side
would be api and technically the only thing we have to do is a portal handshake into your world
uh for user account information so that way they can come in and out and transverse into your world
even better so i can keep my marketplace my same back end that i've
been working on and we can keep our uh we have a guy who's almost uh unreal trainer so just came
out of fellowship and are you building on unreal yeah oh same here so i mean that that's not a
problem either so you know for us it would be very easy
um the only thing is it would be just the server handshake for us to build in the portal for you
guys the portal would be on server handshake and then they go into yours and you'd set a portal
that would server handshake them back into ours i mean yeah that sounds great um
So you just expose these endpoints,
and then my backend can talk to you guys
and authenticate and everything,
so I can keep building the Go backend that I have,
You always bring it back to the boring technical stuff
hey but it's the right questions to ask
the right questions to ask i mean at the end of the day
it has to become an advantage if there is a possibility of a partnership
well i've been in these conversations before where someone goes come build on my platform
and they hand me this like basic glorified map builder right so I've been trapped by stuff like
that before yeah um so what guy right we've got listen guys listen guys we have 12 minutes before
the cake shop starts with the
cake sorry guys so anything that we're going to do to wrap it up here at visit flow i think you
got a giveaway to run or are you going to do that some other time what's the deal with that

one more for the characters, and then
we're giving one fuse box
So do you just run that on the same post
for that? And we just give away
another set of characters and a fuse box.

Yeah, we're pretty new to reaching out to other communities just changed on a dime in the space of 60 seconds on a show.
Yeah, we're pretty new to reaching out to other communities. We really wanted to focus on building
our internal community first, love them up a bunch,
and then kind of cast our net a little wider.

I'll send you an invite code, too.
Real quick there, Madman.
Madman, if you can hear me, check your DMs in Discord.
Guys, I have the cake space starting here in a couple minutes
i'm going to be on live with uh the man the myth the legend cake bob here um if anybody's got any
questions we might even demo out some of the game today while we're we're doing everything um if
anybody wants to come in and check in and be able to come in and play let's get in i know
that a lot of people got to get in and test and have a good time so uh i will see some of you
guys there love y'all to death i will see you guys shortly thanks code thanks everybody
see you guys on this next space peace see. See you in there. Peace out.
