Alternates: A next-gen FPS merging AAA gaming with blockchain technology

Alternates is a groundbreaking first-person shooter (FPS) developed by Brain-Labs Studio. It blends the intense thrill of AAA gaming with the power of blockchain technology. Players dive into a skill-driven, competitive environment where individual prowess is crucial, but teamwork and strategy define success. Players can earn valuable digital rewards and items while mastering various game dynamics. 

Alternates redefines FPS gaming, offering a next-gen experience where gameplay and blockchain converge seamlessly.

Hosted on Polygon and Telos networks, Alternates offers players true ownership of in-game items: weapons, skins, and collectibles.

With its intense action, Alternates invites players to choose their allegiance and immerse themselves in a dynamic gaming world.

Alternates leverages Sequence’s battle-tested web3 game development platform to deliver a seamless player experience, focusing on efficient onboarding, monetization, and retention.

Here’s how Sequence’s web3 solutions elevate the experience in Alternates:

The Sequence Embedded Wallet eliminates the typical friction of onboarding by integrating seamlessly within the game itself. Players can create and manage their wallets without ever leaving the gaming environment. 

The web3 wallet solution allows for a smoother, faster onboarding process. With no need for complicated setups or external wallet downloads, players can jump right in. This solution supports multiple blockchains and tokens and lets players engage with the web3 ecosystem from the very start.

The Sequence Marketplace API enables Alternates to create a custom in-game marketplace. Players can securely buy, sell, and trade digital items. This solution offers a seamless and secure trading experience, allowing players to engage with the in-game economy.

The API allows real-time trading and customized pricing mechanisms, giving full control over marketplace design. By facilitating peer-to-peer exchanges, the API unlocks new monetization streams, immersing players in an engaging economy where creativity and competition thrive. This flexibility allows the marketplace to adapt to player needs, fostering deeper engagement and participation.

With the Sequence Collections API, Alternates can seamlessly mint and manage digital assets, including NFTs and other collectibles. This API provides a robust toolkit for organizing and categorizing items. For Alternates, this tool helps create an experience where players can interact with their collectibles and the game. 

With the Sequence Unreal Engine SDK, Alternates seamlessly integrates blockchain functionality directly into its game engine. The SDK is the only verified EVM-based web3 Embedded Wallet solution on the Unreal Marketplace.

The NFT Checkout feature simplifies the purchasing process. It allows players to buy digital items using traditional payment methods, and eliminates the need for prior crypto knowledge. This feature enhances monetization and boosts player retention by making the Alternates in-game economy more accessible.

"At Alternates, our goal is to build a player-first gaming ecosystem that prioritizes accessibility, strong monetization, and lasting player engagement. Sequence’s Web3 stack provides the solid foundation we need to succeed in the Web3 space, offering players a seamless, rewarding experience that enhances both gameplay and in-game economies."
