Section 2. Game information:
Briefly Describe your project:
Blocksy Royale is an innovative 2D top-down MMO shooter that adeptly combines the intensity of battle royale gameplay with strategic mining elements. Capable of accommodating up to 1000 players simultaneously, the game stands out for its unique fusion of concepts inspired by ‘Curiosity – What’s Inside the Cube’ and traditional 2D shooters, akin to Counterstrike 2D. The core objective in Blocksy Royale is strategic resource management: players are tasked with mining blocks scattered throughout the game world, with the ultimate victory awarded to the player who mines the last block. To intensify the gameplay, an array of weapons is available, facilitating robust player-versus-player combat in a free-for-all format.

What is the USP ( unique selling point) of your game?:
The unique selling proposition (USP) of Blocksy Royale is multifaceted, combining technical innovation and flexible MMO gameplay. A standout feature is the game’s capacity to support 1000 concurrent players, a technical achievement not commonly seen in the gaming industry. This capability stems from our team having a network expert with extensive experience, ensuring stable and scalable gameplay.
