Star Atlas, Battle and Explore the Universe in 3D Space

Star Atlas - a next-generation Metaverse project emerging from the fusion of blockchain, real-time graphics, multiplayer RPG genres, and DeFi technologies.

Join Gamefinity as we explore some key details about the Atlas project in this article.

Introduction to Star Atlas (ATLAS, POLIS)
Star Atlas is a Metaverse game project set in a futuristic universe storyline developed in 2620. Players align with one of three factions to vie for resources, dominate territories, and control the game.

In this distant future, three primary factions have emerged: (1) the MUD Territory governed by humans, (2) the ONI Zone comprising a conglomerate of alien races, and (3) the Ustur Zone controlled by visionary machines.

FACTIONS – Star Atlas Guides
These factions are engaged in resource contention, territorial conquest, and political domination. Players start by aligning with a faction and embarking on their conquest of the world.

The game platform combines traditional gaming with blockchain technology built on Solana.

Highlights of Star Atlas (ATLAS, POLIS)
Utilizing Unreal Engine 5's Nanite technology, Star Atlas promises high-quality visuals and an immersive experience, pioneering breakthroughs in the NFT gaming scene.

Below is an image of NFT integration using this technology.

Star Atlas features highly engaging gameplay reminiscent of popular strategy games like Starcraft and Warcraft, attracting millions of gamers worldwide. Specifically, players can:

Explore galaxies.
Control land, troops, fleets, resource mining…
Complete missions.
Engage in intense combat with other players.
Participate in Virtual Reality (VR) gameplay.
Own, trade NFTs.
Additionally, the game includes a Universal Marketplace where players can buy and sell NFTs discovered through gameplay.

Integrated with Serum, Star Atlas also features a decentralized finance (DeFi) system including lending, AMM, and yield farming.

Moreover, being built on the Solana platform, Star Atlas benefits from its advantages, such as low transaction fees (averaging around $0.00025 per transaction) and a throughput of 50,000 TPS.

Roadmap
I've explored Star Atlas's development roadmap, but there's still no documentation detailing complete timelines for project completion. Fundraising through asset sales will occur in multiple stages based on developmental milestones.

Phase 1:

Galactic assets will be sold on OpenSea and converted to Solana via a bridge. Assets sold on OpenSea will not be playable until Phase 2, but DeFi features will be available.
Phase 2:

Mini-game versions will run in browsers. Players engage to earn rewards in-game.
Revenue from selling game tools in the mini-game.
Phase 3:

Game completion on Star Atlas using Unreal Engine 5. The first milestone of this game version will be a Shipyard Functional Module.
A new public sale wave of purchasable assets will be offered.
Continuous revenue through mini-game sales.
Phase 4:

After the beta version of Star Atlas is deployed, all remaining pre-released assets will be sold.
All content purchased in this phase will be immediately playable and fully featured in the Star Atlas beta.
Phase 5:

Only sell assets with new concepts in the game. And subsequent versions.
The parent company of Star Atlas receives transaction fees from all in-game transactions.
Project Potential Assessment
Star Atlas is one of the most anticipated projects in the Metaverse trend. You can read more about the latest Top Metaverse projects here.

The project's standout team includes Sam Bankman-Fried in an advisory role, a high-profile player in the Crypto market, Founder & CEO of Alameda Research as well as FTX.

In addition, the project team includes individuals with deep experience in the crypto market. Star Atlas collaborates with two names, Unicly and Yield Guild Games, both communities developing NFTs and Games. Together, they will surely create a diverse ecosystem for the project.

With the current flow of funds into the Solana ecosystem, this project is more attractive than ever. Star Atlas will use Solana blockchain to adopt a serverless gaming approach, enabling up to 50k TPS, which is very impressive. It is also said that a million transactions on Solana cost $10, which is a cost-effective approach compared to servers.

Star Atlas is positioning itself well with a game concept incorporating most features of the blockbuster game Eve Online. Star Atlas takes it a step further by introducing blockchain mechanisms such as mining, NFTs, and DeFi atop its proposed game pillars; the gameplay and complexity will create some of the most outstanding super games.
