End: March 24, 2019 20:00:00 UTC


NextColony is a last days space simulation with RPG elements and tradeable collectibles built on the Steem blockchain. This game will change your life, rescue Steem and make this environment the most imaginative place in the entire universe.

Okay, let's go...

The NextColony Team is expanding. It is a great honor for us to announce that Holger (@holger80) is an integral part of the core team. There is no developer on the Steem who has never heard of Holger before because he is a smart and exemplary Steemian and by the way also the father of beem, a Python library to interact with the Steem blockchain, which is used intensively here on Steem. NextColony is thus taking another strong step forward because the database structure of NextColony is in professional hands with Holger.

We have formed a superb German-speaking team and are ready to take off. First, we will make NextColony known on Steem and second in the whole cryptosphere. We have set ourselves big goals. We do justice to the brand Made in Germany and work through the defined plan in a structured, consistent, passionate and conscientious manner.

NextColony is build by an experienced and highly motivated team. The five-headed team is Holger (@holger80), Jens (@jarunik), Oli (@oliverschmid), Robert (@bronkong), and Tim (@rondras). The industrious Platuro (@platuro) works for us as a highly committed mercenary.

The shareholdings in NextColony are distributing as follows:

  • Partner: Holger (10%), Jarunik (10%)
  • Founder: Robert (26,66%), Tim (26,66%), Oli (26,66%)

Our thanks go to the entire German-speaking community that has been supporting us since day 1. You are awesome, thank you!

In the meantime, we have developed 4 of 7 core areas.


We attach great importance to the core values of this decentralized system and will build a fair and transparent game. We believe in the core values of decentralized structures and that they have the potential to make the world a better place.

We have the goal of creating an imaginative and enormously large universe that offers great adventures. We get our motivation from our strong community and our fuel is donuts and coffee. Join us on our journey to distant galaxies and build your colony the way you always wanted it to be.

So far, we have published very less information. Exactly that was planned. The early start of the auctions gives us the opportunity to start marketing while working on NextColony in the background. The first of three auctions will end in a few hours. As soon as the second auction is ending in about two weeks, we will open the gates.


The first auction achieved 4066 STEEM

Here are some insights:

The following resources exist:

  • Ore
  • Coal
  • Copper
  • Uranium

Uranium will play a central role in NextColony and will be a highly coveted commodity. You should be careful with your uranium, because you need it almost constantly, even when moving your fleet.


Here you get to the press / blogger area:

You will always find fresh material, which you can use in your posts. In the press/blogger section you can get a foretaste of the planets of the next auction.


Only a couple hours until the end of the first auction:

Euch viel Erfolg bei der finalen Entwicklung :)

Can you please confirm that none of the partners or founders are allowed to participate in the auction using any account under their direct or indirect control?

I think fair and transparent auctions are extremely important. Especially where the winner could defer and it would go to the next bidder, there is a lot of room for potential abuse.

I did participate in the auctions initially but did stop to participate once I became clear that I will be a main investor of the project. I do not use any other accounts to bid on the auction neither. The discussions and decision to invest directly into the project did stretch over some time. I did bid during that time of discussions. I did not have any insight into the project while I was bidding. I did stop participation in the auction once we concluded the deal and I got more then the public information into the project.

I hope that clarifies your question for my involvement.

Thanks for the clarification, I much appreciate it! Your name showing up in both areas was a potential red flag and this helps to clear it up.

I currently play SteemNova, and my alliance is looking forward to checking out NextColony when it launches.

Thanks for the clarification, @jarunik! :)

Sitting on needles here...

Me, too. :)

You guys literally have a dream team of devs. Good luck.

That's definitely the case. Thanks, @holoz0r! :)

quick question: will there be 6 legendary planets with uranium(that we see under the "press" section)?

Interesting. It seems that not much info has been revealed yet, but already the auction price went up 500+ steem per planet.

I guess it is based on the reputation of the team (and maybe it's "made in Germany" - people are willing to pay premium for German goods)

marketing = germany = quality ;) see you on the battlefield my friend...

No. There will be a total of 9 planets auctioned in 3 auctions. At each auction, 3 planets will be auctioned. In the press you can see a foretaste.

Absolutely.

Is there any Discord channel to discuss?

Yeah, a Discord server would be amazing! =)

It won't be long.

"We have set up the server and we are already working there. We open the server when the game starts. Otherwise, this eats up too much time, which we better use for development. Until then I answer all questions in the comments."

Have seen that, nice! =) Also nice to see that holger80 is working with you guys. :3

Thanks for the question, @mys. :)

👍😍

I just wanted to clarify when the public will be able to play Next Colony.
At the start of your post you wrote :
“There are only 31 hours left until the end of the auctions. Be ready.”

You then go onto say later in your post:
“The first of three auctions will end in a few hours. As soon as the second auction is ending in about two weeks, we will open the gates.”

My understanding is the public will be able to play Next Colony in appropriately two weeks.

@welshstacker said in the comments:
“Tick tock tick tock..... 36 hours!! It can't come fast enough. I'm hoping for some big things from @nextcolony and I want to be one of the fist to play.”

I just thought you guys might want to clarify this, as I’m really looking forward to the game and want to see it become a success.

Have an awesome day!

As soon as the second auction is finished, we will open the gates.

Our first auction ends in 14 hours, as you can see on the NextColony homepage. A little above the planets is the timer.

Thanks for replying.

That is what I thought.

Have an awesome day!

You pretend people spend +500STEEM on something there is completely no light about ? no video, empty website (very cool design though), no docu, nothing...

I bid based on trust with my investment account powernap. Risk is part of life.

@lightproject It is absolutely fine that you are skeptical as you are lacking information. But one thing I can guarantee you: we are not pretending anything. All bids are real. If this is too much for you, no problem.

Its not "too much for me". I wish I could be all cheered up and everything, at the end of the day, im also invested in this ecosystem and i am happy to see cool new projects..

I just do not understand why would you not wait to let people see more so that they can make a conscious decision on the purchase you are offering.

At the current state of information you provide, you are basically offering a gamble.

That's an offer, not blackmail. :)

made in germany too
