AMA Summary for September 18, 2024

This week's AMA was focused on the results of the Barney's Bazaarn event from the perspective of the Pixels team, however, several concerns from the community stand out regarding how things are being done. Find out everything in this summary:

Key Point

• Game Restructuring: Significant changes are being made to the game's core systems, with a focus on improving balance and progression (a promise from the last few months).

Events and rewards:

• Barney's Bazaarn: This event was more challenging than desired, involving some inconvenience due to not testing beforehand with some users who have already participated in similar processes.

• Fairer rewards: There is a commitment to be more transparent regarding rewards for future events, in order to avoid mistrust and uncertainty on the part of players.

• The reward pool in this case will be 50% of burned pixels, which translates to 500,000 pixels in rewards.

• There are 100 NFT Lands still held by Pixels and can be part of future events.

Future Content:

• Chapter 2.5: Chapter 2.5 is expected to bring a new task board, changes to resource acquisition and tool lifespan, a complete change to the game's meta.
• Dizzy Demon Integration: This integration is expected to be completed on Friday of this week.
• The Barney's Bazaarn event will be repeated, so don't throw away your boxes, they will be useful.

Community concerns:

• Player engagement: Luke and Heidi acknowledged the need to attract more players and make the game more accessible, given that this first stage focused on resource and pixel burning.
• Game balance: Existing balance issues, such as coin inflation and the difficulty of some events, will be addressed.
• The community was very precise and clear about the uncertainty generated by the bipolarity of the pixel team when it comes to rewards, since they transform the proposals in the middle of live events.
• It is requested that event rewards respond to the effort that they involve.
