2023-05-04 18:17:09 Fantom Ecosystem Spotlight: SUPA Foundation

SUPA Foundation is developing a unique trading card game leveraging blockchain technology to offer a better gaming experience!

The game called Internal Conflict is a trading card game (scheduled to beta launch on May 5th!!!) that offers a fresh take on traditional and digital trading card games. Two players duel against each other as either a SUPACell or Virus. The gameplay centers around card placement on the battleground as well as resource management. Cards can offer different traits that can manipulate the battlefield in various ways, including damaging opponents’ units, healing one’s own units, and moving units around.

The player who wins is determined by whose SUPA Organism survives until the end of the match.

"Our aim is to create a game that offers a fair and balanced playing field for all players, regardless of their investment. While spending money can offer advantages, we believe that skill and strategy should always be the most important factors in determining a player’s success.

Fantom is ideal for blockchain gaming due to its fast confirmation times, zero downtime, and low gas fees.

As pioneers in this industry, it is essential to continue educating the wider gaming community about the advantages of blockchain gaming over traditional means, and why Fantom is an excellent choice for blockchain gaming."
