The game is developed by German developers Dacoco GmbH, who have created three projects to date. Alien Worlds was created in 2020.

Dacoco is based in Zug, Switzerland, which is deemed Switzerland’s ‘crypto valley’, due to the number of blockchain and crypto companies based there. They claim to be decentralized autonomous community organizations experts, and also act as guild validators on WAX.

Alien Worlds’ first unique feature is that it is a gaming metaverse that features numerous DAOs, giving every TLM coin holder a stake in deciding who runs the platform, allowing people to use TLM to stake, vote or even become a leader.

Players can stake their TLM to Planet DAOs, which then shows their alliance to a planet and allows them to receive more daily TLM rewards. Based on the amount of TLM staked, it affects the extent to which a user can vote for the future of the planet.

Becoming a leader in Alien Worlds is no foreign feat, as the platform allows players to run for candidacy to be a Councillor in more than one planet. Each planet can be managed by more than one elected Councillor, who will share multi-sig control over the respective Planet DAO account.

Another unique feature of Alien Worlds is that it is free-to-play, bypassing expensive barrier costs that are a feature of many traditional games and making it newbie-friendly.

In a testament to Alien Worlds popularity, it is the second fastest growing NFT game. According to DappRadar, it is the second in all decentralized applications (DApp) and first in all DApp games by 24 hour users. This could be attributed in part to the Alien Worlds community development efforts — they are active in 18 languages on Discord, a popular messaging platform for crypto communities, targeting english-native countries, China, Russia, Japan and Turkey. Furthermore, the team are also undertaking localization efforts to support Filipino, Indonesian and Indian players, where P2E games are extremely popular, as seen in the rise of Axie Infinity. Other community efforts include: onboarding well-known intellectual properties, supporting active Telegram and Discord communities, sponsored drops and promotion, supporting expansion effort and conducting regular AMAs.

Alien Worlds runs on three blockchains on which its native token TLM has been deployed: Binance Smart Chain (BSC), Ethereum and WAX.

Each of the three blockchains supports Alien Worlds’ various functions that let it run smoothly and safely. For a start, Binance supports the staking functionality, letting BEP-20 TLM holders to run missions. On the other hand, WAX allows for a free transactional layer for most of the core gaming logic.

NFT image data is stored on the peer-to-peer Inter Planetary File System (IFPS), allowing this data to remain decentralised and allowing external applications to stay in touch with on-chain functions and data so that the games and functionality can run as per usual.

Alien Worlds is listed on several cryptocurrency exchanges. Among them: PancakeSwap (V2), Gate.io and LBank.
