Profiles Update

As we mentioned earlier, we want to create not just a game, but a social platform for people. Magic Beasties should be a place where people have fun and enjoy spending time. We start with the basics, with a personal profile.

Now everyone has their own personal profile!

Now you can take your unique nickname (for only 200,000 in-game COOKIES ), share a link to your profile, or tweet it (with just one click). Your nickname will be displayed in your profile, on the leaderboard, and in the in-game chat. Your profile already displays your Beasties (in order of rarity), as well as your biggest wins in the Lucky Wheel. Later it will also show your avatars and achievements.

The leaderboard table will now display the nickname and will link to the profile page.

Also in this update, several small improvements have been added:

1) Navigation Menu Rework
Over a year of development, our app has grown with a huge amount of functionality and internal pages that no longer fit in one line. So we decided to update our navigation menu, now the links are divided into categories

2) New User Menu
The new user menu allows you to quickly access all the information you need (balances, buffs, links you need) anywhere. No more need to go back to the wallet page to check balances and buffs!

The Magic Beasties project is constantly evolving and doing everything for our users! There are many more cool updates to come!

Hello friends, today we want to share with you a little software utility tool we found recently.
scc is a very fast accurate code counter with complexity calculations and COCOMO estimates. This program allows us to demonstrate how much effort has been invested in the development of our project.

For example, we'll look at the statistics for just the backend and frontend. We will not count statistics for blockchain watchers, smart contracts, analytical tools and dev ops technologies.

Magic Beasties Front-End

Estimated Cost to Develop $602,738
Estimated Schedule Effort 11.346532 months
Estimated People Required 4.719347


Magic Beasties Back-End

Estimated Cost to Develop $410,535
Estimated Schedule Effort 9.805897 months
Estimated People Required 3.719455


"I can't say that the program calculated everything correctly. Estimated cost is of course overstated. However, if we even take a quarter of this amount, it will separate us from most projects that offer only a website filled with empty promises. We work on a real product and we deliver!" - @qqsambuca


In this post we talked only about the code, but don't forget that it's all backed up by our awesome design. The design and modeling also require many hours of work. We believe that our stunning design combined with our code makes us unique!

Weekly Update (week №41)

13 June — 20 June. As usual, on Monday we publish last week’s report.

Bitcoin had a massive drawdown this week and even reached $18,000 at times. But as you can see this does not affect our strong team, this week we did a lot of important work and also prepared the ground for next week’s updates

Potions Rework

Finally, our potions will be what they were originally meant to be — a consumable that helps your Beasties defeat the difficulties in dungeons!

The main role in our game is played by Beasties, so the new potions do not have their own stats, they only improve the stats of your Beasties. We completely redesigned the mechanism for using potions. We also took care of those potions that you already have, so you can exchange them for new ones. For now the potions just have a percentage boost, but later on the new potions will also have other passive effects such as "reduce time in dungeon" etc.

How to get new Off-Chain Potions?

1. Transfer from Drop-Vault
You can exchange all the potions that are currently in the Drop Vault for new ones that get good stats and you can use them in dungeons! To do this, go to the Drop Vault and click on the Transfer Potions to Items button.
Stats: +5-20% to random stat

2. Transfer from On-Chain (minted) Potions
Have you already mint potions or bought them at the market? We took care of you! You can exchange them for new potions by going to Inventory > On-chain items > Potions and clicking on Transfer Potions to Items button. (*Transfers are done in batches of no more than 20 items to avoid large commissions)
Stats: +10-40% to random stat

3. Drop in Dungeons
Stats:
Dungeons 1-4: +5-20% to random stat
Dungeons 5-6: +15-30% to random stat
Dungeons 7-10: +20-40% to random stat

We hope that this update will make our players very happy Open / Comment

Today we present you a new version of the Cookies Lucky Wheel in the Witch House. Now you can get a unique off-chain item "Magic Ticket", which you can further exchange for the talismans of the new rarity!

You will need 5 Magic Tickets to get new uncommon talisman! The number of tickets is limited and cannot exceed 500!

Just the wheel? No, this update is far from as small as it seems! In fact, it carries a lot of necessary changes:

1. First, we introduce players to the concept of new off-chain items. (which are the new tickets). In the future, you'll even be able to trade these off-chain items on a special marketplace!

2. We're smoothly immersing players into the world with new mechanics, one of which will be a "talisman merge". You can read more about the new mechanics in our documentation here https://docs.beasties.online/talismans/talismans-merging

3. Last but not least, we're reviving interest in the wheel. To make sure our players don't get bored with it, we will keep updating it! In this update we have added not only a Magic Ticket, but also a new field "x0.5". With the new "x0.5" field, the total RTP is still above 90%, which means that players will now hit the "lose" field less often!
