Unstoppable Games

Unstoppable Games is the developer of the space-themed, strategy-based metaverse, Influence. Influence is a massively multiplayer online (MMO) game, running on the Ethereum blockchain based on the Starknet platform. The game is set in the fictional Adalia system, where players can colonize and exploit asteroids for their resources. It is divided into three phases: Exploitation, Discovery, and Conflict. In the initial phase, players focus on building a fledgling economy and expanding their influence by controlling resources and supply chains to produce goods and services. In later phases, players advance their technologies, invent new items, and engage in PvP combat. Key features of the game include participation in a player-driven economy using the platform's native token SWAY, the mining of raw materials, trading food and steel, building spaceports, selecting class-specific characters, and the formation of alliances. Influence aims to use the existing decentralized app ecosystem on Ethereum, with all in-game assets such as asteroids, ships, and buildings being on-chain, which players can trade non-fungible tokens (NFTs) for on platforms such as OpenSea. Raw material liquidity pools can be created on Uniswap and derivatives on Synthetix. The desktop version of the game launch was scheduled to be released in the summer of 2023.

The platform's unique factor is its utilization of Starknet, a technology that allows faster and cheaper transactions on the Ethereum blockchain by moving the computation off-chain and verifying it with STARK Proofs on Ethereum's layer-1 solutions. This allows complex computations, such as accurately modeling the orbital trajectories of spaceships in a game, to be performed efficiently, Further, the company plans to utilize Starknet as a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) to further decentralize the platform. Unstoppable Games generates revenue for its metaverse through its Basic Starter Pack priced at USD 25 and the primary sale of digital assets such as asteroids on OpenSea. The company tested Influence on Ethereum Layer-1 and Starknet, generating more than USD 5.5 million in NFT sales for the game's 250,000 asteroids.
