Prix UFORIKA 

FORA

An original metaverse platform revolutionizing game engine technology for web3. Born out of a creative and culturally inspired vision that aspires for true digital asset ownership rights, UFORIKA passionately advocates for the concept of the open metaverse and collaboration across platforms whilst delivering its unique native narrative and user experiences in a 3D/VR based MMO environment. Introducing new, innovative and fit-for-purpose game engine technology that delivers enhanced development speed, and improved efficiency in architecture and game mechanics, UFORIKA is redefining the technology and user experiences that will shape the future of this industry.

UFORIKA centers around a core mission that challenges the status quo to support mass adoption and accessibility for users. Architecting from the ground up, UFORIKA is building with a user/player first approach enabling faster and more efficient iteration and development practices that deliver long term sustainability and adoption. The technical vision drives towards lowering base specifications required for edge compute that can therefore increase user adoption through the use of a wider range of hardware. A ‘pixar level’ AAA graphics experience shouldn’t only be reserved for those that can afford it and a change in approach to world building is required to deliver that to enable all users, regardless of their ability levels. Wrapping that in a creatively driven world ecosystem that leverages transmedia experiences across gaming, technology and digital experiences, UFORIKA seeks to encourage users and players to find their home in our world with the focus on fun!

Limitations of existing platforms include a poor graphics experience, a lack of accessibility and inclusion mechanics, bugs across the backend technology impacting user-generated content, massive open-world navigation disorientation and low-quality game production. This is due to current game engine technology not being designed for the metaverse, and the necessary workarounds result in high development costs and long build times. High-spec end-user devices are required to access existing platforms, reducing user adoption expansion because of the cost barrier associated with required hardware.

Current platforms have content creation tools located outside of the platforms via additional application downloads that require assets to be published back into the live environment.. We will be putting the editing tools in the game directly – in the hands of the user so they can harness the full abilities of the game engine technology & tooling without complexity, so users are leveraging the same tools and UI/UX that developers are (with levels of feature sets from novice to expert). Any content needed (e.g. blender, photoshop, other) can be directly imported into the live game without any other external tools/cooking. The user will own the content and add to their wallet/account as it is created and locally cached.

We will win as we are building from the ground up, with no code-bloat, fast iteration times and a higher graphics experience all intertwined with compelling and engaging gaming lore and narrative. Many of the existing platforms lack the engaging story that entices and keeps users on the platforms. The combination of both technology and story is our winning formula.
