Overview

Gm frens. It is with great pleasure to present today the Dropt | The Fallen Gotchi alpha proposal.

The Demo Phase was a great success and proof of concept. Now, we're ready to scale our efforts. The Alpha Phase is designed to be our biggest and we will be building the vast majority of game features.

The extensive game design document can be found here:

We have an expected road map of twelve months with key deliverables slated for each month.

During our alpha build, we will keep the Demo open and available for play. We will also host at least one community play test during the year.
