Alpha 2.0 Updates 06.28

Alpha 2.0 stats, new features, and special events

Hello from the Ethernal,

Our team has been hard at work since releasing Alpha 2.0 on the Matic testnet. Here are some updates for the last two weeks.

Alpha 2.0 stats

• ~200 Alpha keys were sent out to testers: 176 new characters were created, with 87 characters remaining active after 7 days. 28 characters finished level 8 & level 9 (the highest levels on floor 1).

• 35,506 rooms and 15,577 monsters have been generated in the dungeon.

• 3,670 total daily moves were made by playtesters.

• 10 players on average requested food each day: we restricted the amount of test $MATIC players would get for food refill per day (food is required to make every move in the dungeon), which limited daily playtime for each player.

• Most visited rooms in the dungeon:
