Pixudi is a blockchain-based board game where players compete to collect treasures by overcoming obstacles and completing missions. The game includes unique scenarios, mechanics, treasures, and adventures. Pixudi aims to introduce blockchain technology to millions of users and bridge the gap between traditional board games and NFT games. The game will be available on web, Nintendo Switch, mobile devices, and physical copies. NFTs include boards, characters, items, and pets, which can be traded and purchased on the Pixudi Marketplace. The game mechanics involve rolling dice and moving characters on different boards with various effects, including fights, mini-games, and shops. You can find more in our presentation, enjoy watching and have a nice day!
The connection between real/virtual is established by the fusion of the online platform and its physical copy + Nintendo Switch version. Users can play Pixudi alone on their device as well as together with friends in a pub.
Play-to-Collect is our choice! It is close in spirit to traditional gamers and yet does not exclude the opportunity to earn money on our tournaments and competitions.
Nintendo Switch version of Pixudi will be released to attract broader audience We will establish partnerships with board game manufacturers to help them become part of the blockchain industry Pixudi uses a Free-to-Play business model (Nintendo Switch model will be slightly modified) so the users can play for free and pay for additional features.
Pixudi already is multichain. We have developed customizable cross-chain bridge solution for transferring NFT objects from one blockchain to another.
Pixudi follows the free-to-play model, allowing players to get acquainted with the game with zero friction. The browser game will be released together with the marketplace where users will be able to buy NFT items to improve their gaming experience. We are creating a bridge between the traditional board game audience and the blockchain world, thus Livepeer will become the main blockchain for this task. New games coming into the Pixudi, issuing their tokens on the Livepeer blockchain, and gamers who can transfer NFTs from other blockchains, will generate new transactions on the Livepeer blockchain, contributing to the growth of the entire ecosystem. For example holders of premium NFTs, the physical versions of the games will be released just like a regular board game. Users will be able to buy one of 10 sets with a unique map, character miniatures, sticker set and a coupon with a code to get the exact same set in the browser game. Thus, a strong connection is established between the real and virtual world of the NFT. The Livepeer ecosystem can be the best entry point into the world of the Board Game NFT industry and manufacturers in games for large masses of new audiences ready to switch their activities from traditional games. All processes that determine such processes as a dice roll and a player's move are implemented through smart contracts, which increases the trust and purposeful use of the blockchain as a decentralized process without the possibility of hacking.

10) How did you learn about the Livepeer Grants Program?
From community members of Livepeer and before starting blockchain we carefully chose the blockchain to build our cool project with based on those we worked with.
11) Was this project started at a hackathon or another web3 event? Which one?
No. We, as gamers ourselves, have always felt that there is a huge gap between traditional physical board games and online games that can be bridged. This is how the idea of Pixudi was born - after countless brainstorming sessions, we started making the game that we would love to play ourselves with our families and friends outside the blockchain industry.
