Revolte - An interactive novel to onboard Web2 users to Web3

Project Details

What are we building?:

Join the Web3 revolution with Revolte!

Our adventure game introduces users to the world of blockchain, wallets, tokens, and more, with mandatory tasks like wallet installation to guide players through the story. Explore real Web3 applications and experience the potential of this transformative technology.

Why do we believe what we are building is going to succeed?:

We need more projects that educate people about Web3, and we believe that Revolte can achieve this goal through an engaging and interactive adventure game format.

How will receiving a grant enable us to further the mission of Web3 mass adoption:

  1. With the funding from Dora grant DAO, we plan to expand our team and professionalize our platform’s UX/UI. It will allow us to create new adventures more frequently and secure partnerships with blockchain protocols to make our platform economically sustainable. We also plan to bring on a scenario writer and a game level designer to enrich the game mechanics.
  2. By building custom-made adventures for existing protocols, we aim to turn our users into users of our partner protocols, as there will be mandatory tasks to perform on the protocol before continuing the adventure.

The users we plan to target with this grant:

Our first goal is to educate Web2 users who might be interested in exploring Web3, and our second goal is to encourage Web3 users to explore new protocols through our adventure game.

Who are our competitors?:

Crew3, L3, Guild can be considered as competitors but they aren’t really on the same segment. We want to onboard through a captivating game.
Ethereumhacker was an inspiration for us but it’s not a competitor. Same for Cryptozombies.

What makes us well-suited to carry out the project described in this proposal?

We need creativity and developping skills. On this aspect we are well-suited, and the first chapter of the adventure already released (March 1st, 2023). Chapter 2 is being developed currently.
But we plan to expand our team and professionalize our platform’s UX/UI. It will allow us to create new adventures more frequently and secure partnerships with blockchain protocols to make our platform economically sustainable. We also plan to bring on a scenario writer and a game level designer to enrich the game mechanics.

Web3 experience:

With Irruption Lab, we’ve already built several projects (https://www.irruptionlab.com/):

  1. InterPool: A Sport Prediction Game with no losers, where the winners share the interests generated by the deposits of all the participants. (HackaTRON S3 winner)
  2. No Pool No Game: An MVP that leads us to InterPool. A memory game where the winners share the interests generated by the deposits of all the participants. (ETHOnline 2022 winner)
  3. PlzNFTme: send a picture and you’ll receive a personalize NFT drawn by real caricaturists

Grant Request

What is the size of the grant request?:

We are seeking $60k from the Dora Grant DAO:

How do we justify the size of the grant?:

The project’s scalability is limited as it relies on the creation of new adventures to attract and retain users. Additionally, the project must continually showcase new protocols to keep existing users engaged and entice them to return for more.

The grant will open up new possibilities for the next chapters of the adventure, ultimately enhancing the user experience. This includes the onboarding of Scenarist/Game level designers, illustrators, UI/UX designers, as well as improving visibility through marketing, partnerships, and community management.

As of now we are self funded.

Roadmap
