3 min readApr 1, 2023

March was a month full of testing and bug reports. The team at Defimons conducted tests with a closed set of web3-only users and web2-only users, receiving extremely positive feedback from all ends. Lets take a look at what our team has worked on for the past month:

Overworld Activities

Moving around in an empty game world can be boring. What if you could find hidden items around the map?

Our game development team has been working on adding in many different overworld activities around the map. Which means, smaller puzzles, games, and more, allowing you to unlock locations, find hidden rewards and more!

Apartment Explorer

Loved editing your apartments? Soon, you’ll be able to visit them and even invite friends over!
The frontend and backend development teams have been working on the apartment explorer for the past few months, and we’re excited to share that it is fully ready.

NPC System

One of the biggest inspirations for the game design of Defimons is Stardew Valley. Our team loves the in-depth design of each character NPC, the routes they follow and all the interactions a player can do.

For the past month, the backend development team has been working on revamping the NPC system where NPCs follow predefined routes throughout the day, thus adding another layer on top of an already immersive quest system.

Smaller bugs and Improvements

Our team has tested out the overworld with two different sets of players belonging to two different markets (web2 and web3). During the process, we fixed over 20+ bugs (including 5 critical bugs) in less than 2 days.

In addition to this, our team has started working on adding in smaller improvements as well, including monster followers, depth based lighting and more.

There’s more to share and more to play, hop onto our discord to receive regular game sneak peeks and development updates!

Our holders-only alpha goes live on 3rd April 2023, with the snapshot being taken on the day before. Make sure to grab an apartment before that!

Thank you for being such an amazing and positive community!

As always we’ll keep building in public and sharing regular information regarding the development of the game.

We’re working towards pushing out so much stuff for our holders, so if you’re not already a member of our fast-growing family, join us on Discord or Twitter.
