Objective

This proposal is filed as part of the NF Grassroots initiative.

Launch popular mini-games (2048, Wordl, Bet), and community Play portal on NEAR/BOS in several Milestones, supporting with engagement community support, utilizing specific NEAR NFTs for gameplay, and aligning with the whole NDC strategy. The primary aim of the portal and games is to encourage organic on-chain and social community growth while developing apps on NEAR Protocol/BOS.

We aim to expand our inclusive, welcoming, and supportive community within the NEAR ecosystem by building our mini-games on NEAR.
Launching the play portal on BOS - is a further effort to contribute to the growth of the NEAR community and increase its on-chain activity.

Goals:

  1. We propose to deploy our existing dapps (in Milestone1 - 2048, further - Wordle, Bet, and the Portal itself) on BOS, and to support with community engagement and technical updates, to continue promoting innovation within the community and creating new opportunities for users to interact with NEAR Protocol.
  2. To build new games on the portal with registration via i-am-human.app and utilizing IAH SBTs to play the game

2048 game on BOS

twenty48.app is a completely on-chain and extra challenging version of the popular 2048 game, built on the Aurora blockchain by Aurora Community.
Rules: players must combine cells within the game board, using cells in multiples of two or four. The aim of the game is to reach the 2048 cell. The game continues until a player reaches the 2048 cell or higher, or until all moves are exhausted.

Hi @Iban thanks for your proposal.

I guess that you mean November? Please update…

Hi @Iban thanks for the proposal. While I like what you’re aiming to do here, I can’t support allocating the requested funds for this project as outlined in the proposal. Here are my reasons:

  • MarketingDAO funding is typically allocated for existing projects with demonstrated audiences and engagement. We do not fund development in most cases.
  • There is very little detail around why the budget lines items are what they are. It seems rather arbitrary (i.e. Art creation/design $1000…for what, we need for detail)
  • Marketing activities around this could potentially receive support from the council if the games/portal were live.

I’d encourage you to reapply for marketing funding once launched.

thank you for your feedback!
we’re applying for the 3rd time and really appreciate your support to start building mini-games for the NEAR Community on BOS and increase trx and community engagement. it’s a grassroots initiative and we hope to apply to Gaming DAO in the future to continue our contribution
