We started conceptualizing Nanomoon back in 2022. We wanted to bring to life a dream of building a fantasy driven indie trading card game (TCG) on the blockchain. A mix of old school RPG games, tabletop strategy games and TGCs. A small team of creative and technical people got together and started building the basic game infrastructure. Early versions of the game were mostly just us playing around and cementing our vision for what we wanted the game to be. Early versions of image based A.I. were being developed and we we started trying to integrate that technology into the game to provide dynamically generated visuals. The results were mostly lackluster, but we felt that we were going in the right direction (today, we’ve updated the A.I. image generation tech we use and we’re very happy with the results – see the image to the right for an example. We also wanted to have a game which allowed players to try it out for free. Therefore, we needed to create more efficient game architecture. Early versions of the game were technologically bulky and therefore our team of devs had a lot of work to do if we were ever to scale beyond 100 simultaneous players. This was a year of creative and technical experimentation which allowed us to define the boundaries of our vision for an open world, player controlled, living, breathing fantasy TCG.

During 2023 we had a solid technical vision of how we could bring our game to life. During this year we started to build the individual components, API endpoints, database structure and logic required to bring the game to life.
