NEOWorld is a multiplayer online sandbox game that runs on the blockchain. In Unity-Powered 3D virtual environment, players purchase lands, construct buildings, invest and operate businesses, like in the real world. NeoWorld is also a social platform where players could not only chat, but also develop complex relationships, manage the community and accumulate wealth from within.

What is NeoWorld?

 Virtual World NeoWorld is a virtual world based on blockchain ideologies, with its own digital currency and digital assets recorded on- chain. Players use the its virtual currency, the NASH to bid the lands where they can build and develop. Developed areas would provide employment opportunities for other players to earn NASH. In its system, both employer-players and employee-players will be rewarded the NASH as they contribute either labour (attention) or capital.

 Collaboration NEOWorld creates a game model that emphasizes on collaboration. In the process of accomplishing tasks in the NEOWorld, players simultaneously play a variety of inter- related roles, from employers to employees, from content creators to distributors, and to consumers. As relationship develops and strengthens, NEOWorld will form a social network and collaborative community akin to the real world.

 Sparking Creativity Players are able to create avatar, contents and designs using elementary materials in NeoWorld. They can also create their own games or interactive applications using scripts and mini-programs, and deploy those in their properties to generate income from other participating players. Project Concept and POA Mechanism

 Project Concept Virtual world simulation games like Second Life are always compromised by the conflict of interests between game operators and player communities, and lack of real incentives. NeoWorld offers a token-based economic model to address these issues, where contents are purely user-generated and users are fairly and transparently rewarded.

Roadmap

 Proof of Attention (PoA) We believe everything about attention are valuable. When players turn their attention from the real world to this virtual world, to create content, upgrade facilities or simply view ads, they deserve to be rewarded. The overall intrinsic value of NeoWorld will steadily increase, as the virtual world continuously accumulate vast amounts of “attention”. To measure and distribute these value to the community, NEOWorld has designed the PoA mechanism and the NASH token, rewarding content generators, distributors and consumers using a dynamic formula.

The NeoWorld project comprises three phases, based on the development of blockchain technology and infrastructure:

 Bronze Age NEOWorld will introduce NASH token and complete its core game functions, e.g. simulation and multiplayer online interaction. Players are able join the community via PC- based client portal and use NASH in NEOWorld.
 Silver Age NeoWorld will migrate partial functions, e.g. community voting, to the best-fit public chain then, e.g. Loom, Zilliqa or EOS. Third-party content upload and review (by the community) functions will be incorporated into the game and the economy.
 Golden Age NEOWorld will release APIs to community, players will be able to create interactive contents and mini-applications. Community election mechanism will be ready, and the NeoWorld Foundation will phase out and be replaced by the community elected governance team.
