BCGW #53: Crypto Space Commander prepares for lift-off

Listen Later

We’re into the second year of the Blockchain Gaming World podcast, and kicking off with US developer Lucid Sight.

We talk to CEO Randy Saaf and CTO Fazri Zubair about their forthcoming space MMO Crypto Space Commander (CSC), which they describe as like ‘EVE Online on the blockchain’.

The game will be in Steam early access in late August, alongside a pre-sale of game items including the first ships from CSC’s recent licensing deal with Star Trek. 

Topics covered include:

  • Why Lucid Sight wanted to make a complex MMO such as CSC on the blockchain
  • Why blockchain is an important feature of the game, not the entirety of the game
  • How the development process has progressed (currently Alpha)
  • How CSC will onboard gamers without requiring access to crypto or private keys/wallet etc
  • Why Lucid Sight thinks item ownership is so important for blockchain game adoption
  • The importance of building a community early in a game’s development, including Discord and streaming
  • And how the financial opportunities of NFT trading encourages a deeper community
