Thank you. All right, everybody.
Here we are another Friday talking about Pulsar.
So if you don't know about Pulsar,
it's an MMO RTS L1 that just dropped and we are in Mainnet, as the title said, Mainnet is live.
So I'm Álvaro Martín, the CEO, and here I have with me Fernando, which is the game director.
20 years in the video game industry and from my side i'm a former tech director of king that one
of candy crush another 18 games and basically i left web 2 when we achieve 400 million daily
active users and i convinced fernando to make this an incredible project that we are going to
showcase today fernando how are you man i'm very sleepy but i think you're going to showcase today. Fernando, how are you, man?
I'm very sleepy, but I think you're going to wake me up very sure when I'm talking about
all the awesome things that we should be covering today, right?
Yes, of course. But first, before we start, I want to point everybody to our website.
And if our awesome director can share my screen for a moment
yes thank you so much so guys seven days left three hours 57 minutes and which yes minutes so
guys this is what we have left to be able to buy this Genesis drop.
It's almost everything sold out.
So just I want that you think about go to Pulsar.game.
You go at the top of the page and you have this Genesis drop.
Are the most special units, the most powerful and of course the most limited units in the game
yeah if you want to buy all the bundle packs and all the units then you can go to the normal shop
and do your choice all right Fernando so what do we have for today man? We need to be covering how to play the game because we've been told that there's a lot of new people
among us that didn't know how to do that they didn't want to cover us the very basics which
is from downloading the game to building your base to go and mining to go and playing a dungeon to go
and destroy all Alvaros units and then going back from
the beginning and do it again, and then competing on the leaderboards.
And then what's this thing about the lands and how to extract Pulsar, how to optimize
my mining production, et cetera, et cetera.
So we are going to be going over all those things in some detail.
So I was thinking that should we make it very simple?
Should we make it very detailed?
And we're trying to strike
some kind of balance so we go over the whole process explaining things as we go trying to
know to make it too complicated but uh trying to give a lot of information so let's see if we
if we can achieve that man all right so let's just start from the very beginning yeah you download the game and hey i'm here my connection you're here
but you are not you you are actually showing the game right but where do you download the game
you download the game here let's say yes so you go to pulsa.game and you're going to see a really big button that says download for Windows and for Mac.
You can show.
Once you have it downloaded, this is what is going to appear.
So what I will do is just go inside, play the game.
Here are going to be your motherships.
I will choose this one.
And then after choosing the mothership you need to
join a land yeah your land fernando you know what it is this one so you told me before man yeah
that's that's my land that's my land something something that is interesting here no no it's eight to four can you open it
it's 23 58 24. that that's one 23 58 84. no 24 it ends in 24. i told you yeah exactly
isn't this one i saw it before and i think someone's going to respond meanwhile Alvaro is explaining
this thing um we're going to to give you a little bit of an overview about what's the game once we
enter in the land what you're looking at is a list of the lands that are there open in the game those
are each of those lands is an NFT meaning that you can you can buy NFT lands you can use them
for yourself or you can open so other people can join. And as you
see there, you can see that's the name of the land. You see also some rarity, which is going to
determine what is inside of the land. You see also different pictures that are showing different
biomes. So there is the snow land, there is the lava land, and also how dangerous the land is and
the size of the land. But also you can see there taxes, right? And you see like 0%, 50%.
Those are lands that are open right now. Those are public lands where people can play right now.
And this is the taxes that the landowners have set on that land, meaning that if someone joins
land, when they mine and refine, they are going to be sure we were going to be providing the landowner
with with a part of the the profits they obtained abro did you find my land or what someone took
the spot i mean we are very packed and many people are playing i don't see your land available so i
need to join another one if you want well you have your uh thing set up if you want okay we can we
can join in a dungeon later anyway.
Just join any LAN.
That's fine.
All right.
That's fine.
So something that is important is that if you notice,
there is no Web3 mention whatsoever.
You just join.
You just download the game.
You just start playing and that's it.
And you don't need to have a wallet, you don't need to have anything.
But everything that you see in there is actually web 3 already.
This is the mothership.
The mothership is our center of operations.
And you are in a land that you see that the map uh the map is the map of the land
and then you will see there all the people you are not alone here each land has a capacity so
can you show for example other people's buildings up there you see some blue line yes here some Some players. Dividend or Dividend. Yeah. He has a nice setup actually because he has well protected the Pulsar refinery with the
mothership and the units factory.
And then the secondary gas refinery and mineral refinery, they are packed there.
This land doesn't have too many people.
Hopefully we are going to have a good space which space you believe
we should take because this is the first decision you might want to take right just go i i think i
would i would go definitely for that spot in the center where surrounded by mountains but this is
my preference because i prefer to be less less exposed some other people because it depends on
your gameplay style and what you expect to get out of the game but yeah i will be there
what would you do uh i will not because i'm protected but also well good thing is that we
have a pulsar spot here but if i need to go out for the other resources I will overextend my
base of operation however this is an easy spot to start with yeah because you
have only one entrance if you pick this one this one here in this in this part
you have mineral your pulsar maybe you have this one here you have more pulsar here however you have a nest that is not far away right if you are a warlord this is the
perfect scenario i would say you have two nest resources and let's start in the protected area
okay so we we are someone saying can i move later use of course you can you can land
your mothership you can move it later and and then critical is saying i use mothership close to one
resource so close for miners and then i use mothership to mobile to go to other resources
something we are going to be talking about that that's a good suggestion yes all right can you
zoom on the mothership while you fly just to show show how beautiful. I love the mothership. It's one of my favorite units.
You can press Q and E to rotate the camera.
And the mothership is the center of your operations.
It's the thing that is going to allow you to build other things.
We are going to talk about that later.
But you know what, while Alper is moving, let me give you an explanation,
high level explanation
about what pulsar is pulsar is a real a real strategy game and it combines rts gameplay
mechanics to think of a starcraft with randomly generated content think of uh diablo's engines
with a social uh experience of an always-on persistent mmo you think of wall of warcraft
and there are many things that you can do in the
game, many, but the most simple progression for players is to mine gas and mineral, to build and
integrate your units and buildings, to explore dungeons and to fight aliens to win loot, and then
trade with all the players through the in-game marketplace. Then what's special about Pulsar is
that it splits the three classic gameplay roles of any RTS, any real strategy game, which are mine, build and fight.
And it makes them more deep.
So you can choose to focus on any of them or play them all.
So, for example, you could become a specialized miner and sell to other players their raddest and most difficult to find resources in the game.
Or you can just choose to focus on fighting, not bothering to mine any resources at all,
but relying only on your combat prowess to acquire loot that you can trade for the resources you need.
And of course, you can progress in all the roles at the same time.
So instead of a supplier, you become more of a self-sufficient competitor.
So that's a high level of the
gameplay. And the most important thing of the infrastructure we develop, which is, you know,
everything that is below the game, is that it feels and plays as totally web 2. So you download,
you play, you don't see anything, like you don't need a wallet actually to play the game, but
everything you see in there is Web3.
So Alvaro's Mothership is actually an NFT.
All the buildings is going to be NFTs.
All the units are NFTs.
Actually, they are NFTs made of smaller NFTs.
And all the things that you see on the top, on the head, mineral gas, even Pulsar, which is our main currency, all of them are in-game tokens.
But you don't need to know that if you don't want to
you just play with that you just use them to play you just spend them you can even buy them you don't
need to have a wallet to do any of that but if you want you can actually connect the wallet claim any
assets put them in there and do whatever you want with them so now that you are there i just arrived to my awesome spot yeah okay so the first thing we need to do is to
to what i'm following to select a deposit what are you going to do where are you going to be
extracting resources from man i need to build first okay you can you can do factory yeah
first okay you can you can do this factory yeah that's a season so why why units factory because
the unit factory is the building that is going to allow you to build and repair your units so you do
it from that menu on the right it shows you all the things that you have actually new version we
have quite an improvement over that menu so it's much easier and it has filters and it's much easier to operate. So I have my factory, meaning that now I can come to the units and start generating units.
All your units are level 24 already?
No, I wish.
Do you have something that is not maxed?
Yes, I have here a lot.
Okay, cool.
So the different colors you see there are different varieties.
So you have units that are common and common rare in Genesis for now,
being Genesis the most valuable one.
But we plan to add two new other rarities in between rare and Genesis,
which are going to be epic and legendary.
So as of now, can you please go and build one miner?
Resource miners. Everybody needs to understand and build one miner? Resource miners.
Everybody needs to understand that there are two types of miners.
Resource miners and one specific one for Pulsar miners.
Those ones are very limited.
You can get them in the Genesis drops.
So I will build a resource miner.
I will build a Pulsar miner.
And I will randomly click to build the
why don't you just build one miner and and let's go bit by bit all right i have these two and as
i told you now i need to make a long trip for the gas for instance yeah okay the pulsar miner is the one that you can see that has the color of
pulsar which is kind of red pinkish yeah and the other one is the resource miner once you can
select it and then you go to the deposit you right click and it's going automatically to be
mining put it in the backpack and coming back in this case to the managet. Okay. Then the resource miner, you can with the left
click, select it one single click or area click for multi
selection. And then you take that and you go and I will try to
steal a bit of resources from my friend here. I mean, I'm not
stealing resources. It's just this pact with other guy mining.
This is important. The mineral gas, those are infinite. So you are going to be mining them.
Once you mine them, the deposit is going to become depleted. Can you hover? Do you see that when you
hover the mouse over it? You see that there is an amount of resources. In mineral and gas and
biomatter, which is another resource we'll be talking about later,
they become depleted, they become smaller and smaller, they disappear,
and after a time they reappear somewhere else in the land.
It's not the case of pulsar though. We're going to be talking about also that later.
Pro tip, Fernando.
If they spawn randomly, that you can see that has some pulsar crystals,
but very small one. Yeah, it's a hint, just in case you want to place your base of operation
strategically around. Yeah. So the explanation is that over time, the planet has a lot of energy
inside that for some reasons, we can actually talk through that, but not to
make it very long. For several reasons, the planet is pushing
the detritus that are on the surface, it goes inside of the
planet, then it goes out again in different places, but it goes
usually in the same places. So that's why you will see that
there are like the places where that each type of deposit can
it's actually there on the map.
You can see that.
So you don't know for sure when it's something going to appear there,
but you know that at some point it will appear there.
So is your miner ready?
Another tip.
Yes, you can select the units factory, right click,
if you need another spot,
because you want to pay attention to other things for instance i'm
generating some miners and i don't i want to send them here and they are going to go automatically
there yeah in the same fashion i get multi-select yeah and send them i will send it to the to the
mineral you are you're just going over all the explanation that I had in mind.
Why don't you let me just go? Because then you are going... Hey, I was just here, man. So I just wanted to...
I want to mine. I want to mine.
You told me to restart again, so I needed to stop my operations, man.
I just want to insult you, you know, make things difficult for you.
Can you just go to them?
Do you have a miner already in some kind of node?
Yes, I placed here.
They are mining, but they are traveling.
What is happening...
All of them are traveling yet, right?
Yeah, the miners...
Big backpack, let's say.
When you grow the map in the level,
they're going to have these bigger
backpacks, but still, they are quite slow when they finish mining and they come back to the
mothership. So, what is the solution for that, Fernando? One solution can be like one user said,
at the beginning, if you are in a safe spot, you place the mothership near to one node,
so the traveling is shorter however
there is something else we can build right fernando wait we told it because we are we're
telling a lot of things and it's difficult to to digest everything at the same time can you go to
this node where you see where the miner is mining so mean so mean okay so as you see the mind this
is being depleted right now okay so any any number of players can be in here yes you're right criticoop it's it's a mobile depot is or deposit on wheels
the fernando has today an agenda and a plan and we cannot destroy his agenda so you are
destroying it all over the place we know what we need to do so uh, OK, so if you click on the miner,
you will see that it has the backpack
that I was mentioning.
Now it's full, right?
And now it's going back.
Now it's going back.
It has to go a long way towards the mothership.
Now you have it here.
You can see down here.
It's mining the pulsa.
So can you?
In the same fashion, the one that I have here...
And we have here the other miners.
Something important here is that what these miners are extracting is unrefined.
So unrefined gas in this case and unrefined pulsar.
Can you go and build a gas refinery, for example?
Gas refinery.
I'm missing the new CC menu that I can search for.
So much easier.
Gas right here.
Meanwhile, Alvaro is, okay, so that's the refinery.
You have a refinery for each of the type of resources. So this one in particular, it's going to allow you to refine gas.
And if you click on the resources tab that Alvaro already made,
you see that this thing is filled up, right?
That bar that is filling up is actually one cycle.
So it means that whatever you have, whatever unrefined resources you have,
they are going to be slowly refined there.
So each time that this bar fills up, some chunk of unrefined resources
become refined.
But you need to collect it with that green button that is there.
Can you click it?
Okay, now go up to the interface can you see can we see the tool tip yeah that's it so you hit gas gas unrefined
and refined so over has already a lot of unrefined because he has it from his previous land so he's
complaining a lot but he shouldn't have to right i'm okay. I mean, my mining operation, it's okay. No worries. And so as you see, every time you press collect, someone refining will become refined, but you
cannot do it, leave it forever because there is a maximum capacity that you see also there,
which is the maximum storage capacity of the refinery. And you want to collect it from time
to time because when it fills, when it's full, it stops refining. So you don't want that to happen.
You want to come frequently and collect. And another thing that happens is that if you receive an attack from
another player, from an alien, and it destroys the refinery, whatever is there, it's destroyed.
Not the unrefined, but the refined resources are destroyed and lost forever. So you want to
collect them to put them in a safe place where no one can take them from you
okay i guess that you want to build also a pulsa refinery right and then we can do many things man
okay so go and build build build a pulsa beautiful certifinary for example and then we can
look at this bar that is called power can you point point at it? Okay, power is the amount of electricity in a way, right, that your mothership is able to supply. So your mothership has a capacity
to provide power to control the buildings that you have on land. So you cannot build
infinite number of buildings, you can't control as many as your mothership will let you. And
the way to increase that is to level up your mothership. And it's the same thing for the units. So can you go to the unit step? There you have it. If you build a unit, you will
see that the amount of CPU that is free, it will take some CPU. So you see that this bar is growing.
You see at the right how much CPU is Alvaro actually using and what is the maximum CPU that
its mothership is going to be able to handle. so the more powerful your mother sheet the more units you're going to
be able to handle at the same time when units and buildings go up in level they are going to require
more cpu meaning that uh you know more powerful units and buildings will will cost more so you
will have to choose a balance there reinforcement arriving finally
they are arriving to the mineral deposit because we need to build something that you don't allow me
to go faster it's fine okay do you have a little army just in case? Yeah. So let me explain just one little thing.
When you build an army or miners, it doesn't matter what, you can select them all. And here
you have two buttons, two commands, which is be packed in one place or have a formation. Okay.
So the more I have, I can choose a formation and they kind of take their own position
just in case you want to organize yourself better in this way yeah fernando let's continue so
they're talking about the mobile input in the chat so we should we should go in
we will oh so do we give a pro tip here guys build two mobile deep bots i will explain exactly why
okay so actually actually one of the things that we wanted to show that we didn't because you are
just jumping all over the place doing whatever you want which is what you usually do and that's
fine blah blah blah blah is exactly what uh it was cryptocoup right who was saying that before
was that the the mobile uh there are some strategies to to place your mothership like
your mobile depot etc so one of the the strategies that they were mentioning before is that you are
mining right now two things right but you still need to mine another one which is a mineral are
you are you mining mineral gas and pulsar three of them yeah i show it to you but i think that you are not paying attention to my mining operation which is awesome
not yes even if i am i would say that i'm not so then you obviously so what miners do when they
are full is they go back to the mothership they unload and they come back to the deposit
meaning that what they were saying is that put your mothership nearby one of the deposits
right so it's going to be um faster but then if you cannot be close to all three at the same time
so this is why albert is building those little beauties will burrows as they are calling them
in the chat look now they mine a bit and they are traveling all the way back slowly how do we fix that first thing genesis
mobile depots are really fast yeah and this thing that you see here soon are going to have weapons
but that's another story yes basically what you do is you click this button which says deploy okay so I will be near this
mineral because it's far and I will click here and I will place one of them in this place if I
don't want my miners to be a stop and I want like have a really efficient operation what i will do is go select the other mobile depot and place it also there
what the miners are going to do is choose the one that is closer to them and when one of them is full
it's going to the mothership okay but the other stays there so the miners are traveling very little and that is the way you can improve by a
lot your speed of uh mining and collecting yeah it depends also on the and of course it depends on
the distance that's why where do you place your mothership is critical because if the distance is
very very high then you you probably want to have two three mobile dayboards it's it's very very
close you don't want any mobile depot at all. If it's like in the middle, you might have enough with one of them. Just keep in mind that when the
miners mine, they fill the mobile depot. The mobile depot is full. It goes to the mothership.
Meanwhile, the miners stay there. They don't go to the mothership because it will take them more
time to go back and forth because they are much slower than the mobile depot, right? Also crossing
the lands, it's sometimes dangerous. There are enemies dangerous there are enemies etc right so you want them to stay there close actually you could even end up in dangerous places
have some combat units to protect the miners there and they will continue mining but at some point
they will fill their backpacks and they will stay there waiting for the mobile depot if that happens
it means that the mobile depot is taking too long to go back so another mobile depot could speed up your your throughput that's we're talking only about the the mining we will come back to we will get
to the combat uh later mobile depots okay so you have a few more people already in place and we
have um yes because i'm pro so i need to have a lot of mobile depots if you want to conquest
and how a firestorm like to say if you want to dominate the map you need mobile depots if you want to conquest and how a firestorm like to say if you want to dominate
the map you need mobile depots guys that that's what i want to say so i'm building more mobile
depots i mean yeah yeah just go go you have a cpu to build 75 mobile depots and uh then uh you have
also refiners for everything did you know because you need to refineries for everything, did you? No, because... You need to build refineries for everything.
Okay, so you're building them.
This is important.
Remember that they need to be in a place where you can protect them
because you're going to be receiving alien attacks.
We're going to talk about that later or when Albert wants either of two.
So we are now building the refineries.
We know that it is max capacity for refinery.
We know how they collect materials, where they go, etc.
Now, what about if we...
Optimizing operations is already done, right?
So we know that you can place your mothership.
I make an additional thing, to be honest.
Out of the script. Yes. With the targets and defending my mining.
Out of the script.
I don't know your script.
Neither do I.
But what's the next thing or what?
It's good.
It's good.
So look at this.
So I need gas.
Because the other guy here, it's closer to me but it's already
very packed yeah so i will not mine much this one is the closest one i have i will improve the
performance of the of the mining with my two mobile depots yeah however if you see here there
is a nest careful with this all right so personally what i like to do is the
following the the best advantage of uh targets is that you can place them instantly paying the
the gas and mineral that cost to construct that you have it up there you can instantly play them
there so if you have any trouble this is like a fast
very fast response yeah so what i like to do not close to the to the um to the next because i will
trigger it yeah so tesla uh turrets attack multiple targets when they are close. The bolter turrets, yeah, they attack in a longer range.
So you need to be kind of careful with...
And one is single target very powerful, the other one is less powerful,
but it attacks many enemies at the same time.
And so what you're doing is you're building a place where you can run fallback
to be protected, and you let the...
Actually, you let the turrets make the work for you,
because as as
critical is saying in the chat repairing units may be expensive so you need to think about your
strategy you need to play carefully otherwise you are you're going to be spending a lot of mineral
and gas not only in building but also in in repairing and you need that to level to level up right so are you going to say it okay no wait wait wait
do you want me to attack the nest okay of course i do of course so something something also we
want to explain is leveling up um but but we are okay we have time time still. So we can just take your time. How far are your units?
Well, they are going.
From where?
What I want to say is that miners, they gain experience to level up mining.
Mobile depots, they gain experience to level up transporting resources.
And fighting units, they earn experience killing aliens makes
makes total sense the more time you invest with your units in the game they are quite experience
hence you can update them and make them more powerful we only sell level one nfts there are five tiers and 100 levels so
all the upsides are for you so you can sell uh whenever you want your nfts at a higher level
okay yeah that's uh that's really really important we don't sell nfts beyond level one meaning that
if you see somewhere in any marketplace out there, in the marketplace of the game, whatever, you see an NFT, a building, a unit that is beyond level one,
it means that someone has put time into it. It has been playing with that in order to level it up.
It has earned the resources, spend them there, and wait for the time that it takes for the unit
to build in to level up. So that has value that pushes up the price of the of the nfts and in that way we are
trying to support the effort of the people who is going to be working to level those up so they can
actually go and sell them for a higher price because they their effort is worth because it
takes time and effort you can just pay your way through the leveling and that's it you need to
actually pay someone who already make the work for
you yeah there is no only pay and I'm the most powerful you need to level them and use the NFTs
there's no other way yeah can you can you go down actually level one unit up do you have enough XP
in some of them in construct yeah exactly in build so So you see that blue line.
For instance, as I created miners, they have enough experience.
So you see that the blue line is the experience bar. So you see in some of the miners, they are already full.
So that's why this green button at the right is flashing.
It means that it can be leveled up and it has a cost. It also has a time cost, which see up there in the tooltip is five uh seconds right now right so can you please go click and it's
also since the units can continue for now they can continue acquiring experience so that's why
you're probably going to be able to level it up straight to level two or three it's going to take
more time more resources each time but other is is rich, so no problem. And in that way, they increase, you know, whatever they do,
they do it better. That's for the units though, right? Units needs to be played,
they need to be used in game in order for you to be able to level them up. It's not the same for
buildings. Buildings, they do not need xp they do not need
experience but they do have requirements can you go and try to see what are the requirements for
your mothership to level it up i i bet that you cannot level it up right i cannot read them they
are too small can you read them for me i need level 18 of mineral refinery gas refinery and
units factory at level 18. Okay so that's basically that
so your mothership is going to be the maximum level that you're going to have your land is going
to be the level of your mothership so nothing is going to be actually higher than that because
everything has a requirement that depends on that your mothership in order to level out your
mothership everything needs to be you know up to a certain level and then each of the buildings has
some requirements that involve some of the other buildings. And then the maximum level of your units, it's planned to be the maximum level of your unit refinery.
So everything is kept under the maximum level of your mothership, which is what we call the player level also.
It's your general amount of power that you have.
What else can we say about the experience?
I think that it takes time, right?
Sometimes it takes a lot of time.
And one of the many utilities that our main currency, which is Pulsar, has is that you are going to be able soon to use Pulsar to skip the waiting time, which is sometimes quite long.
Very much in the fashion of any free to play hard currency like
gold bars in Candy Crush or whatever. I mean, you don't wait for time in Candy Crush, but
well, you do because you have to wait for your life to regenerate so you can actually
skip that time by paying. What do I say? Nothing. I said exactly. So it seems that you know
very well Candy Crush, right? It's time. do i do it's time to it's time to
attack right attack the nest so more tips here double click in the scorpions for instance and
all of the same type are going to be selected then press control um one number one two three four five whatever you prefer i prefer one for the
scorpions two for the spiders and i select everything with control four and my third one
control three is thanks why because i like it in that way there has no reason yeah then what I will do is select them all, pressing 4, and I will stop them.
And I will click defend. So don't move to attack.
I will take one spider and trigger the nest.
So you can see if you have well positioned your units.
You can actually defend of almost everything and why is it almost here we have
a breeder the breeder we cannot reach the breeder and the breeder is throwing us off sprints which
are those little dudes that are coming until we don't kill the breeder, he is going to continue throwing more and more and more.
Strategy number one, but this is very dangerous, okay?
Strategy number one, just build a turret down there.
The problem of this one is that it's going to trigger more aliens and your target is not going to survive for
very long but it's attracting the attention okay now you press one with
the with the scorpions launch them to the to the nest yeah and then you can go ahead whoa okay here we go so I need to move my units
that's definitely too easy for you I mean we need to go to a dungeon and really show you in travel
yeah but let me finish with the these ones you know all right yes the tosser has a long range. I need my spiders to reach them. Yeah.
This is a low level nest.
Look, there is no more units around. So I just launch all my units to arrest with absolutely everything.
And then when it's clear, the nest, you have a reward, which is this biomatter all right you can only mine biomatter
with your resource miners by the way when you kill the nest yeah then i will take my resource
miners where these two for instance and i will right click and send them to mine biomatter yes
just select double click your your miners to select them only.
Show you that you can.
That is something very handy also.
Can you do that?
All my miners, all of them are going to be here.
Yes, at the same time, because this is not going to be there forever.
You want to mine it as soon as possible.
That is true.
Send a Mobile Depot too also, or your mothership, something.
Okay. Why don't you send your mothership, something. Okay.
Why don't you send your mothership so we can see the whole thing?
The mothership is going to take too much time.
Because you place it in Mordor.
You told me to place it in Mordor, in the middle of nowhere.
That's why for warlords it's better to be kind of close to the to the nest you know that is actually a
good that is actually a very good point uh so let's first let's first finish with the explanation
of biomatter then we explain why some people would like to be closer to nest than than others
so what were you saying about the about the biomatter or i can't say i can tell what you want to say about biomatter
you can buy it no you cannot right you cannot buy buy you matter even if even if it's called like
that so you can you have to get that if you cannot buy or matter yes that's why you can mine biomater that's why
okay i guess the user follow user views are going to follow right now i see that decreasing crazily
then what's the use for biomatter is good to be saying the useful matter right now you cannot use
it right now but it's worth accumulating because you're going to be able to use it a lot in the in the leaderboards that we have you have uh the biomatter points more than
the rest of the of the resources apart from that the biomatter is going to be used as a principal
source for the tech tree in the future tech tree we are going to do the unique abilities and ways to
improve your nfts yeah is to invest with biomatter all the things of course you are going to have a
if you have a genesis mobile depot for instance you are going to have a special tree branch in
the tree you can invest pulsar you can invest biomatter but the gas mineral but the principal one is going
to be biomatter all right biomatter is for the for the research as i was saying which is going to be
an integral part of your development so going being up to date with your research is going to be
hugely helpful and in lowering the difficulty and speed up speeding up everything that happens in game.
But also, it's going to be used to craft power-ups.
The biomatter, it has a particularity.
You cannot mine it unless you have fogged first.
Mining it is very easy.
It doesn't require a lot of time.
It goes very quickly and so on.
So it's not the same experience of going and mining the normal resources.
We're thinking even though maybe you can mine it with combat units, because the important
thing here
is that the only way to acquire biomatter
is if you go and crack some aliens first,
and there is going to be another resource
that will be dropped by aliens
that is going to be also used for crafting power-ups.
That goes towards the vision that I explained before,
that you have three roles, three soft roles.
So the warlords, which are the ones that are going to be more
Starcraft like players, yours more more focused on killing
things, and they don't want to spend time just mining, they
can go and fight and they get something that the rest are not
going to get unless they go and fight. And with that, they can
build something that the others want. In this case, for example, power apps, and also a type of resource that they can use in their research
that is going to be very important. So warlords have an integral role that people, people
surround, or it's built around making other players more powerful. And of course, the
more difficult the fight, the more valuable the resources, the more valuable the power
apps they're going to be able to craft, the more valuable they are going to be able to
get for them when they sell them in the marketplace to the players.
All right, man.
My army have already warmed up, so I will repair them.
Be slow, slow, slow, slow down, slow down.
That's the important thing.
Crypto was also talking about that yet before right can you so I go to the tab what go go
just go and repair I go to the tab units or building of course and then there is a sub
tab called repair yeah so I will click here and repair everything tick tick tick tick tick tick tick because i need my units fit for the dungeons all right
fernando are you ready to do a dungeon
wait because i mean we can't take too much time to do the dungeon. I mean, we should start this. Otherwise, if you want, as the time is getting tight,
if we have enough questions,
we can have 15 minutes answering questions
if we have enough.
Yeah, actually, there are like a lot of things
that I want to go through.
I want to, but we don't have time for all of them.
So just to give you a head up,
so what we are going to be talking next week,
probably, or what is left here as of now, is we already talked about attacking the nest, we're talking
about the repair, but what about the alien invasion? When do they happen? What is the strength
of those alien invasions? Why are they important? Also, how can I protect from them? Are there going
to be any consumables? Hint, there are going to be some consumables that are going to be using
to protect from them. Where is a good place to build my base other showed one i want to show you
the one i have my place i love it meaning that different lands uh some lands have more value
than other lands just because of the random way they're built and every line is built randomly
procedurally we don't make it by hammer anything meaning that some lines are truly unique and i found one that truly is unique and then all right and then the leaderboards and then tear up and
then land excuse me to interrupt excuse me to interrupt jimmy's telling me that it's hot
pulls out right now i'm ready to do a dungeon let's go let's go and do a dungeon okay i'm going to jump
into the game i'm not going can we can we make it a little bit difficult i mean can you take just
i don't know five units or seven units something like that otherwise you don't see anything you
see like the christmas tree you have too many units no no the problem fern. The problem is that your army sucks a lot.
You need to work on your army.
That's not my problem.
So, let's go.
So, if you want to do a dungeon, it's like, hey, I have under control, my mining operation,
Do someone want to buy?
If someone wants to play with us, can you start the dungeon?
Because I see this one dungeon already in there.
If you start the dungeon, we can jump in it.
If not, we can actually start one.
If you stop talking, I need to pump the dungeon entrance.
It's very, very hard.
So I just wanted to say...
Units factory boost at with multiple units factory. Yes yes it's not built into the game yet but
it is on the roadmap it's going to be there sorry go on can i i want to kill a staff you know
please can you start the annual wait a little bit in the lobby to see if someone wants to jump in
yes of course i can so i just wanted to say hey before i do a dungeon my mine is already mine the biomater
i send them away i have all my units uh well repaired and i go here to below the minimap
i click dungeons yeah and i will click here at the top start new dungeons here you have the list
of dungeons that are not started and are waiting for people. I will choose a dip like...
The maximum one.
No, the maximum one.
The maximum one.
You don't want to...
Oh, you don't want to be chicken in front of, what, 9,000 people, right?
All right, all right, all right.
I don't have to have any level 24, but okay, okay, okay, okay.
Create. Come on. Okay, but okay, okay, okay, okay.
Okay, challenge accepted.
Okay, challenge accepted.
Now you have to play only with one spider.
Oh, I see.
That's 139.
I even didn't build all my units.
You have not allowed-
Oh, I cannot join join i cannot join because in
this version you can only join the ones that are at the same level that you are okay so you are
alone i wanted to be the 50 but you have you have reinforcements
Good old Acer!
Thank you Acer for joining!
More people!
Smooth step!
All right!
All the OGs are jumping!
Oh my god!
Let's fucking go guys!
All right!
It's time to make some groups!
More people!
Do we have more people or they are just watching the stream?
Come on guys!
So this is going to be really a Christmas tree!
I love it!
Oh wait! Acer, you are going to be really a christmas tree i love it okay oh but wait i said what you are going to see
i said and i we are having we are fighting for the ranking of number one bothering people exploding
the the boxes the orange boxes yeah i see okay later yeah all right so let's go be right
yeah we have we have still 12 minutes don't need to be in a rush right just go bit by bit so let's
go and get one of those uh one of those things actually there's people talking already in chat
yeah oh oh we go i mean it's going to be three of us it's going to be tough
oh by the way you can press alt and left click to make points in the map these are
multiplayer so other people can see in the mini map yeah if you are pointing something for instance
it's a way to fast communicate like hey let's go to the to the power up of uh yeah there's something
like yeah look at this okay yeah yeah we go yeah. Scooby-Doo, Booboo is jealous.
I'm jealous too because I'm leveling up a new set of units and now I cannot join.
Same critical.
Yeah, yeah.
Let's go, let's go.
We can't stay here for a long time.
Okay, here it is.
Reach the gates.
So meanwhile, you are here.
This is like the waiting room.
This is like the lobby, meaning that other people can join.
But in the moment you cross those laser gates, then the dungeon starts. Can you actually start that?
Can you explain fast this one?
That's a nailing egg. That's a nailing egg. You go. Go, go. Go on.
These are just like presents, you know, nice presents like Christmas.
So you just attack it with a little do a a little right click yeah and
it's giving you uh some mineral and gas sometimes you get a big fat alien all right so you cross the
gate and you start the dungeon here in the top right appear the the missions yeah and these are the famous orange uh boxes that asa likes to make explode
okay so this if you use it well it's a very good weapon to kill uh they are marking like this flow
so you can right click yeah attack them and you see this allo these are time bombs yeah so if you
use it well it's good to to set up traps like a dynamic trap for for the aliens but as as i would
like to do is probably to score higher in the ranking when your allies is passing by he activated and kill your units
yeah so you need to be very careful if you play with him apart from that hey another alien egg
yeah there you see a tosser appear yeah so sometimes they spawn some enemies actually
that tosser also you see that it has some inner glow you cannot see that very well but that means
it's a rare tosser the deeper
you go so when you play dungeons something that i'll do very quickly is to choose the
the difficulty of the value i think we will go over that in the next am i you told me no look at
this yeah yeah no worries no it's fine it's fine this is not very visible if you are in this in this
i can tell you it's not very visible if you pass it's not on purpose yeah it's on purpose
tell you it's not very visible if you pass it's not on purpose yeah it's on purpose it's actually
designed to avoid that people go mindlessly through dungeons yes so you have some kind of
a mini strategy inside so if i did if i don't see them i go by what activated yeah and depending on
how fast are your units you are going to really break off a few of them.
Yeah. Or you can do something that a lot of people don't know.
Look at that. This is rare also.
A lot of people don't know is that you can actually select your units and you can right click
on another unit to follow, just to set your units to follow.
And then you can separate your hands from the keyboard and your units to follow and then you can you know leave separate your hands from
the keyboard and and your units are going to be uh okay okay not bad so can you press b i attract
b for what to see your life oh you're all very good you're very good okay yeah yeah because because as i as i saw the tanks the uh the goliath kind of targeting me i was backing up so my friends
in the dungeon has time to attack them yeah because they get distracted uh attacking you
all right so we have here the first uh buff that we can take this is the tosser so we need to rush
half that we can take this is the tosser so we need to rush to him because the tosser has a huge
range so we should not wait to kill him yeah actually shout out to unique horn which he loves
tossers all right so this nest is going to work like uh the nest that uh you see in the land
but they are just special because they throw tons of
aliens and so on yeah but when you kill it yeah you are going to oh i'm destroying my
whole army doing stupid stuff man so oh my god oh my back up no oh my god
oh my god i have one tank you have one tank all right and this is what happens in level 199 if
you don't pay attention of what the heck you are doing did you guys want to try again at a lower
level uh yes yes which level can you create Why don't you create it? Okay.
Yeah, guys.
Hey, I was talking and I got distracted.
But as you can see, you need a strategy.
You cannot mindlessly go and kill things.
All right? No, actually, we didn't even cover what ED Units does.
But tanks are very good for something.
Spiders are very good for some other thing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's a real player.
No god mold.
No, no, no.
We suffer.
This is something that we...
And now comes the pain.
Just to let you know,
now comes the pain that you need to rebuild your army
and pay the cost.
I think we have six minutes to go. I'm going to build a dungeon. Let me see. Depth 18. I
don't even have all my combat units built, but I don't need it because I'm going to be in very good
company. All right. Can you check? I'm building. Actually, to speed up your building, you need to create more units factory.
If you are a warlord, you should have more than one unit factory.
That's another strategy, yes.
You can, for example, if you were a warlord, you want to be building and repairing very quickly.
You want to have more than one unit factory.
If you're a miner, you want to have two or three refineries of each type, maybe.
But that means you're going to spend your whole power supply in building those buildings. So you're not going to be able to build the other ones, right? So you
have to be choosing something wrong here. Okay, no, that's fine. Okay. Okay.
You created a dungeon. I'm still building, but
I see not doing anything.? What are you doing?
I mean, don't complain about my army.
Be careful.
Be careful if you don't have trouble.
I think something is wrong here in my side.
I'm going to restart.
Do I create the dungeon? A lot of people is already inside but
yeah it's black black screen right you already have it okay it's something that albert is
fighting against in this so then let me let me it's an unreal thing with mix with other stuff
with other stuff.
Sometime happen.
Generating my army.
Yeah, let's quit the dungeon.
And come on,
stop regenerating army.
Create a new one.
It's going to be level 18 only.
Come on, it's only four minutes ago.
We need to be able to show that.
Which rebuilding?
How do I join the dungeon?
Don't join the dungeon.
Create one dungeon. I'm ashamed again in front of everybody or what level come on level tell me do i do
level nothing i wanted to i wanted to leave the dungeon i left the land instead i am very
uh what you say stupid there's no other way to say so guys can you just go and play without me
yeah if you press p or escape yeah you have two buttons abandoned land which don't do it
quit to main menu and exit the game he pressed abandoned land which is bad now he cannot join
abandoned land which is bad now he cannot join all right so I go without you man yeah
answers a after five of whoa whoa join that dude let's go let's fucking get right all right let's go
yes this okay there we go this uh i have to say something that this uh we were talking about the mines in the lands like these land mines that you cannot just go mindlessly this is actually one idea
that uh from andre one uh our lead designer that uh now he wanted to put them in there i didn't
want i didn't want them.
But at the end, I think he was right.
And they are contributing to the experience in several ways.
Some people hate them.
What is this?
What is what?
Oh, that's a door.
That's a blast door that you can actually go and open.
It's a secret room.
But for another moment.
Let's focus.
Let's focus. Let's focus's focus let's go let's go
it's a pity that we cannot have a bit of sound of the
yeah and the music and so on come on you need to you have two minutes
you see i'm passing by and he's starting to destroy the the boxes you have two minutes
come on we cannot rush which level was this one uh why don't you i don't know who created
we are rushing okay we are rushing to see the boss uh i think i think you should kill one nest
at least to show the well maybe not right let, right? Let's go to the boss.
We leave the nest for the next AMA.
A lot of things we have to cover on the next AMA.
A lot of them.
We didn't even talk about the tokenomics.
We didn't even talk.
Yeah, because, yeah, team, he can finish the level in two...
Not in two minutes.
Yeah, yeah, he can.
Because they are very high-level players
that are playing a low-level dungeon.
So they are not going to get meaningful rewards, but they are going to be able to finish that very quickly
scooby dooby dooboo boop boop is uh destroying his army with the mine but hey he's fighting for
the cost you know so you you see the boss quick sometimes it's worth because i remember that this extra score you see on the top right you
see extra score time left eight minutes 41 second that is going to increase your dungeon score it's
actually a multiplier per every second that is there and when you play um when there are events
like player events for example play through the dungeons and finish as many dungeons as you can etc all
right you kill one nest and that and now you guys have extra speed now you see all your units are
on caffeine so during the event sometimes really don't do this because you're going to uh
up your army with the mines and everything. It's just to showcase this.
No, sometimes there are events that are...
Fernando, let's go!
Christmas tree!
Christmas tree, poor behemoth.
That is something you shouldn't do.
So, this is what happens when you go with your friends, having fun, being high level, and a well-adjusted dungeon level, right?
All right.
So after the dungeons, you get rewards, you see your stats, and you go.
And you come back to land to repair and so on.
And if you are able to kill the boss then you
unlock the next difficulty you are able to play which is why i couldn't join before because i
haven't been able actually to to defeat the boss uh deep enough to be to do play with them yes so
guys as we need to be uh brappina we can comment some things and take some questions fernando yes
i mean there are a lot of questions that we wanted to answer. Let's take at least a few of them and then next week we answer.
Have you thought about implementing a special ability for each combat unit? One ability that
can be used like only two three seconds and have a big cooldown like 120 seconds. For example,
spiders plus 50% speed for a couple seconds. Scorpions decreasing visibility 90% for some seconds.
Thanks, Rise, a shield of immunity to damage.
Yes, we have.
Yes, we have.
Actually, Andre, which is like an incredible asset
for this team, he has already implemented some way
to prototyping that.
The only reason we have not made that yet
is because there are some other things that we have to do first only reason we have not made that yet is because there are
some of the things that we have to do first stabilize etc the game but this is part of what
is coming it's a passive and active skills for units which are also going to allow us to make
new unit types so the ones who were with us for a long time you will remember that the tank and
the scorpion initially they were spiders spiders with different
weapons now they are units on their own we are going to be doing the same anything you want to
add for this alvaro uh yes we started with the goli goliath yeah or goliath that's how you pronounce it yeah the goliath uh i have a version with the goliath jumping
okay okay you're talking about enemy skills so which is a different thing not what they were
asking we agree with the vision that our units uh enemies and so on depending on the rarity and so
on they are going to have different abilities we would like that that some are native and other ones you need to develop through the tech tree and
whatnot but we are totally aligned we can take the next one if you want okay next question is with the
next version in the game in november will we have a rebalancing of course and repair of units and
buildings yes absolutely actually repair is going to take a different role. And the way you expand,
the way you play the session time, everything is going to be rebalanced with this thing. So
we can cover more about that if you want on other AMAs. Just let us know if you want to know more
about it and we can cover that. But yes,'s uh there are some changes and big changes coming in that direction then next one is you talk at some point about creating the necessary tools
for players to be able to create their own map on their own story is that feature still on your list
yes it is do you want to say something about it it is i mean it's not a
It's not a full priority for this year because the user content generated should be such a nice experience that if it's not well polished, it's not for the masses.
Yeah, but that for us is fundamental because ultimately what we want is that players are able to click a button, something is randomly
generated with our AI, you modify it, and then you're able to create your own stories
and put those stories into the marketplace and maybe sell it for a little.
Whatever, whatever you want.
Also another way to monetize that could be like actually you own the NFT that is the story,
and people have to pay a certain amount of whatever the currency
to enter it and to use it.
So there are many ways in which it could go on, but we know for sure
that allowing people to make use of the tools we are making to build
this thing is actually something very important.
They need to be in control of the content of the game.
That's why we made such an effort
to make these randomly generated maps,
like all the maps you see here, all the lands, all the dungeons.
Every time you enter a dungeon,
that's randomly generated in the mission.
So it's definitely a part of the long-term plan.
Okay, we should be wrapping up
because there are we are running five minutes already over time people have a life they want
to be doing some other things not listening to our problem all right everybody thank you so much to
be one more friday with us from the empire guys go to the lands uh nah wait a tip to join go to discord discord.pulsar.game
ask for a referral yeah because the people has referral code which is going to give you
an extra amount of units i think some of them has around $100 worth of free units.
So please go there, enjoy, participate with us.
Send your questions for the next live stream.
And with that, I want to really appreciate the time that we passed today.
Fernando, we continue with all our tutorials and so on. Go to take the latest Genesis units from Pulsar.game.
Because it's seven days before they are gone.
And that's it.
Thank you so much.
Thank you very much.
Love you all. Thank you. Hey I'm out.
