Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
[In reply to Steven] You are highly welcome
Before we proceed
Briefly introduce yourself to the community ππ
Steven,
[In reply to Telms (Crypto Mutant Team)] I sure am
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
[In reply to Steven] That's good to know
Steven,
[In reply to Telms (Crypto Mutant Team)] Sure, I am Steven: The Chief Business Dev Office at Kyberdyne. I come from financial background - starting with equities on Wall Street and then moving to currencies (fiat) before finally jumping into cryptocurrencies in 2017. I am an avid gamer and love GameFi and what it can do for the players and creators, and was excited to join Kyberdyne last year
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
[In reply to Steven] Perfect
Brief and well detailed
Let's proceed to the first section of this AMA
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
We have some introductory questions and I'm sure you are ready to provide wonderful answers to them
Here is the first question
Steven,
[In reply to Telms (Crypto Mutant Team)] I hope so π
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
- To begin, can you tell us what Kyberdyne is all about? Then, what is the reason and why do you want to build it?
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
[In reply to Steven] π
Steven,
[In reply to Telms (Crypto Mutant Team)] Sure, starting with the first part ( what Kyberdyne is all about):
Kyberdyne is a DBG (Deck-Building Game) with a Rogue-like mechanism built by a triple A game studio. Kyberdyne brings high-quality gaming elements to blockchain game players, enabling them to build their own dream team and earn unique rewards.
In Kyberdyne, players can use their own NFT Characters (Heroes) to play PVE and PVP. They can build up their battle team by 8 characters. Players can gain endless fun in PVE, and also earn sizeable benefits by idling game-play. And players can also have fun in PVP game-play and share the season rewards with other fighters. Kyberdyne is a real F2P, P2E game.
Kyberdyne is a cyber-wasteland world. The backstory is set in the post-apocalyptic era after the highly developed cyberpunk social civilization encountered war and virus plague leading to its collapse. The civilization facilities in the world have been destroyed, and the social system and government have long since disappeared. There are still a number of creatures that had survived and gradually formed various races:
Mutant: Are they human beings? There is an endless controversy. Whereas if one asks: Are mutants horrifying? Certainly yes! Fortunately, the attack output of a mutant is not stable. However, if you've endured their max attack, then may God help you.
Cyborg: if you can retrofit yourself by biochemical technology, =tell me what you want to become? The cyborg is proficient in everything, as reflected in their card strength.
Electronic: People who have over 60% prosthetization are called Electronics. They have the strongest bodies in this world. Feel free to drop them at any position in your battle team. They will all be good choice.
Android: If you need the best assistant, I will recommend the Android. Loyalty and advanced AI make them the most reliable partners. Players must continuously strengthen their abilities, collect and cultivate their heroes in Kyberdyne to take the important task of recovering the earth's civilization while seeking the way of survival in the wasteland.
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
πππ
This is rare and amazing
Steven,
and second part: why build it:
The team is made up of veterans from game industry. They started building game from very early stage and have experienced all kinds of games, from client games, web games to mobile games. Last year, Kyberdyne team noted the success of blockchain games. They did investigation and research in the industry and found that most game is lack of fun and game quality, nether their game economy is good. So the team decided to build this project - Kyberdyne to bring fun and real high quality game play to blockchain players and enable them Play to Earn in the game with long-term sustainable game economy.
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
I can see you are fully prepared and ready to deliver nothing but the best πππ
Now to the next question
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
- To building such a project, may you introduce us the team behind Kyberdyne? What is their background and experience?
Experience matters a lot
Steven,
As I mentioned above when answering Questions 1, the team has rich experience in game design and development. Most members have more than 10 years experience with major games and labels in the game industry.
Shine, CGO
As the earliest pioneer in the field of e-sports, Shine once worked as a professional e-sports player, manager of e-sports clubs and organizer of large-scale e-sports events. He devoted himself to the field of game research and development, designing and producing many popular games and game engines, and deeply led and participated in the game projects of well-known manufacturers such as Tencent. Now he has more than 15 years of experience in game development and team management.
Waza, CTO
Waza has led the technical research and development of several AAA mobile game projects. His main focus is on the core game engine. And he is good at game system architecture AI and its physics engine, game development tool chain, and graphics editor.
The team members have been involved at the core of many triple AAA hit games such as Assassinβs Creed, DOTA2, Torch Light, Dynasty Warriors, Dragon Nest, Heroes VI, Borderlands 2, For Honor and EVE. Additionally, they are supported by an army of skilled junior level developers. For the blockchain part, we have on our team experienced smart-contract, GameFi and DeFi experts, developers and advisors, as well as external advisors from our multiple high profile investors and partners.
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
πππ
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
[In reply to Telms (Crypto Mutant Team)] The journey has just begun. The team has what's needed to fully deliver.
The next question is landing.
Steven,
There are 2 tokens in the Kyberdyne game: $KBD and $KGOLD.
$KBD: In-game energy
Acquired from: Exchanges (DEX & CEX), PVP, NFT mining
Used for: Battles (as energy), Staking, Minting & Upgrading NFTs
$KGOLD: In-game money
Acquired from: PVE, In-game items market sales
Used for : In-game items and In-game Activities.
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
[In reply to Steven] This is top notch
Looking forward to πππ
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
We have 2 more questions for this section
The 4th question is landing
Hope you are ready?
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
- As a play-to-earn game, Kyberdyne must be utilise NFT right? So how we can get the NFTs? And what we can do with them?
Steven,
In Kyberdyne, an NFTs can be minted and earned when a card's level has reached 3 stars.
There are various ways a player can get there.
- Upgrade, as playing in the game chapters (PVE) the heroes (cards) would gain experience and equipment from each battle and chapter completion. The players can also buy weapons, helmets and runes in the in-game marketplace to equip the heroes. All these could help the card's upgrading speed.
- Synthesize, the players can choose 2 cards and merge them while also spending some $KBD as energy. Then they they would get a have a higher level and quality NFT.
- Breed, player can get 1 male and 1 female card and let them breed a child card. The attribution of the child would be inherited from his parents and it still requires spending some $KBD as energy. Each card will have a few limited chances to do breeding.
This is all we can disclose at this stage. We donβt want to leak too much before the game's launch.
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
[In reply to Steven] Breeding πππ
Steven,
[In reply to Telms (Crypto Mutant Team)] The power of love
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
Personally anticipating the game as I am a gamer also π

Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,

Great
That was awesome
Now let's move to the next section
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
We will be picking some questions from Twitter and our guest will be providing answers to them
Hope you are ready? [Sticker ποΈ]
Steven,
Ready when you are haha [Sticker π]
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
[In reply to Steven] π
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
Here is the first question
My question is about your long term marketing plans. How, or through which big partnerships do you plan on utilising to pass your product onto the normal -especially non-crypto people? What's the most ambitious goal of your project? What is the ultimate vision that Your project?
Vision matters a lot
Steven,
First of all, our team is from traditional game industry where we have achieved great success and had very rich resources. Our CGO Shine was organizer of many e-sports events and kept very close relationships with many battle teams and game guilds. So itβs easy for us to pass Kyberdyne onto normal & especially non-crypto players. Besides, weβre actively connecting with the crypto gaming guilds to achieve the mass adoption of Kyberdyne game.
Although we have started only just a couple of months ago, we have already built-up strong interest in Kyberdyne & created our own large organic communities in Telegram and Twitter, etc (as shown above); and. We want to retain the community by having regular interactions, updating the Kyberdyners with gameplay, snips peek etc. interesting content whenever possible.
What is more: For Marketing we have allocate 15% of our token distribution: a huge percentage. We will spare no efforts to grow the Kyberdyneβs community and popularity. Beside those traditional strategies with Influencers & Medium, we are not forgetting that we are, in the GameFi/metaverse world, which are growing tremendously fast. Among many areas we target is partnerships with other metaverse projects as well as guilds so that we can cooperate & compliments each other similarly to cross-platform. We will not rule out anything, even VR/AR are to be considered in the future. We are also receiving huge support from investors and partners with KOLs, commnunities, strategies and other exposure.
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
[In reply to Steven] Wonderful πππ
This is absolutely amazing
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
Now to the next question
- https://twitter.com/OpuGhosh2/status/1493126435577696259 We are all aware that the gaming market is highly competitive. Many platforms are striving to reach the largest number of users. How will #Kyberdyne compete with other gaming platforms? What are your best advantages for attracting many users?
Steven,
Out team is made up of veterans in the gaming industry. The Kyberdyne team members have very rich experience in building games and game economy design. They have been building on multiple platforms: from client games and web games to mobile games. Kyberdyne is a game built for blockchain from scratch. Itβs meant to bring high-quality game play and immersive game experience to blockchain players. Together with a well-designed game economy, this will enable the players to earn and play the game for the long-term.
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
πππ
Experience delivers beyond expectations
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
- https://twitter.com/Ramachari110/status/1493127523374624768 When I watch your game trailer, I will say that playing #Kyberdyne may require a high end mobile device to play and operate. What can you recommend to your players regarding the mobile device specs to be able to play and enjoy the #Kyberdyne game?
Accessibility π¦Ύπ¦Ύ
Steven,
Kyberdyne will have an official launch in March on PC version at first.
Then mobile version (iOS & Android) will follow in Q2. Thereβs no strict high-power requirements for devices, hence majority of recent models should be able to play without an issue. So, not to worry: Kyberdyne will run on most smart mobile phones, not just the very expensive ones.
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
Ease ππππ
Everyone will be able to access the game. That's cool
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
We have successfully come to the end of this section
I would love to know if our guest is fully prepared?
Steven,
Haha, you all will be judges [Sticker π]
Next segment starts: Live questions
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
That was huge πππ [Sticker π]
Sharita (WILL NOT DM YOU FIRST),
Too many projects promise magic but never release any working product or prove any revenue, Within a short/long time of release. Is your project also like this? If not can u tell us, What makes your project different from other projects?
Catharine Otto,
Do you allow suggestions and feedback from the community? Are we allowed in decision making, do you put community into consideration ?
Broken Dream π π₯,
I want to support your project, Tell us more about the Ambassador Program and in what ways can we participate ?
Come Back,
According to the project's roadmap- what are your most important next priorities?
Abraham Brewster,
Many projects have problems with UI / UX and this one turns off new users. How do you plan to improve the interaction with new users and with users outside the crypto space?
Steven,
[In reply to Sharita (WILL NOT DM YOU FIRST)] While unfortunately this is true, we differ in a few major ways:
- Gaming development is difficult and few other projects have the team and experience of Kyberdyne
- Our Development was so successful it took a few short months and was fully self-financed. Private round was recently obtained for partnership and marketing - we developed everything on our own showing our full capability and commitment
- What is more we now have some of the biggest names in GameFi and Crypto financing, communities, Guilds, KOLs and launchpads as our investors, partners and advisors and a huge marketing and development budget, which will ensure this game will also be a huge success like the many other (traditional) games we've build before
Steven,
[In reply to Catharine Otto] Yes we have a sizeable allocation to our DAO community which will be very much involved in important decision for the future including tokenomics, game expansions, funactionalities and so on
Steven,
[In reply to Broken Dream π π₯] We are currently designing our Ambassador Program. Please stay tuned in our channels for announcements about that

Steven,
[In reply to Abraham Brewster] We are experienced game designers and developers from tarditional gaming, which, unlike other project makes us experts in game visual, charachter, environment, effects, etc UI and UX and makes us a true game and not just gamification and childish boring game-like mining functionality like many competitors who are experienced in crypto, and not gaming.
Unfortunatey, the VCs often force projects to follow established previously profitable models which leads to replication of copycat games like tower defenses.
Not Kyberdyne! We bring the PLAY in PLAY to EARN to the highest level
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
Okay. Wow
Telms (Crypto Mutant Team):,
We have come to the end of this section and I say it was really impactful
Many findings
