Hello everyone and welcome to the AMA with Metaengine! Today we have @alexshalash joining us to talk about their exciting new project. Great to have you here 🙂

Alex Shalash

Thank you for having me!

Stephanie (BSC.News)

Pleasure to have you here today

Without further due, we will jump right into the questions. Sounds good with you?

Alex Shalash

sure, let’s go

Stephanie (BSC.News)

Great, so to kick things off, for those who may be unfamiliar…

‍

1. Please introduce yourself and the team behind Metaengine.

‍

Alex Shalash

Hi All, my name is Alex Shalash, and I am the CEO and co-founder of metaEngine. I have been involved in the game development infrastructure business for over 12 years. Antoine Castel is my co-founder. We have a dedicated team of software engineers, artists, world developers, blockchain engineers across US, Ukraine, UAE, Western Europe and India.

Many of our engineers have been working in game dev and infra for the past 20+ years. Our team is growing as we speak, with additional hires in both India and the USA

Stephanie (BSC.News)

Well awesome! Sounds like you guys have a great team so let’s talk about the project itself

‍

2. What is Metaengine and what’s the vision and mission of your team?

‍

Alex Shalash

metaEngine is a fully integrated GameFi development and publishing platform. With its own game engine, networking, servers, blockchain integration and publishing – it’s end-to-end solution. If you are building or planning to build a metaverse-like game / open world – metaEngine is the only choice on the market today.

In addition, our underlying technology supports massive multiplayer online capabilities out of the box, this means millions of players can access your games without the need to develop and integrate networking and server technologies by yourself.

Majority of GameFi devs are struggling to integrate very different technologies, spend months, sometimes years on tech, and don’t have enough time to focus on the actual game experiences – we can help with taking that burden off their shoulders.

Our mission is to bring professional game development tools to the GameFi community to expand their reach to a much broader community of traditional gamers.

… and there are more than 2 billion gamers out there that haven’t embraced GameFi yet.

Stephanie (BSC.News)

Okay neat, so to dive even deeper into that

‍

3. What advantages does Metaengine have over typical game engines for example Unity and Unreal

‍

Alex Shalash

There are many unique features that we offer to developers:

Other game engines Unreal and Unity do not provide blockchain support. We have taken a relatively heavy task of integrating core functionalities to help GameFi / metaverse devs to build those massively scalable experiences.

Using our competitors’ tech, game devs have to hire networking, server, database, blockchain engineers, and spend time and money making those features work = huge technology risk. All these delays the project release to market.

In our view the first step in metaverse development is building a network of interconnected MMO games and experiences underpinned by the blockchain-enabled digital assets ownership and security.

metaEngine is the only one that offers those features on a single platform.

metaEngine’s unique features are:

– built-in massive multiplayer online,

– fully integrated development environment,

– real-time multi-developer environment,

– integrated multi-chain support. NFTs created on different chains, could be brought into metaEngine and used across multiple games – real asset interoperability.

Our engine is cloud-based , this means that distributed teams from anywhere in the world can collaborate on the development of their 3D games

Stephanie (BSC.News)

Okay nice! Thanks for that clarification

‍

4. Will there be an asset store for Metaengine later down the line?

‍

Alex Shalash

Yes, metaEngine will have an Asset Store, but it will offer a lot more than an asset store in traditional games.

In addition to being a store, it will be a Digital Assets hub that will provide full asset interoperability across different games and experiences. Where an NFT owner will be able to stake their avatar or other assets and participate in many games.

This way increasing the number of use cases for their assets, and hopefully keeping or even improving their value.

Stephanie (BSC.News)

Great!

‍

5. How does Metaengine make income, is it through royalties from games published with the engine?

‍

Alex Shalash

Yes, metaEngine is going to take royalties from the games published on our platform.

In addition, there are a number of projects where we are asked to get involved on the development side, from complementing our clients’ dev teams with specific skills to full dev cycle.

Stephanie (BSC.News)

Gotcha. And most importantly…

‍

6. Can you tell us more about your security?

‍

Alex Shalash

metaEngine is relying on industry standard practices for security.

We are not security specialists ourselves, for this reason we are going to rely on our partners who offer those solutions, be it for NFTs or transactions.

Expect to see some familiar names that we are going to partner with in the security area.

Stephanie (BSC.News)

Okay, fair enough

‍

7. Where are you on your roadmap? Do you have any plans to create your own token?

‍

Alex Shalash

Since we closed our Seed round in March, our focus has been in two core areas of business: technology development and partnerships. On the tech side we have started work on the marketplace and the architecture of the integrated game development and blockchain tools.

We are planning to announce in the coming couple of months some early features that GameFi devs can start using.

On the partnerships side we are making good progress engaging game developers to come on to our platform. We are planning to announce new projects in the coming 2-3 weeks.

We are planning to launch our token, however volatile market and global political uncertainty have put us on a cautious side.

The exact timing of the token launch has not been fixed yet.

Stephanie (BSC.News)

Cool. Lots to look forward to. Last but not least

‍

8. Any exciting news you would like to announce here today?

‍

Alex Shalash

We are planning to announce a couple of very interesting projects on metaEngine in the coming 2-3 weeks.

I can’t name them yet, but your community will surely recognize them when we make them public.

Stephanie (BSC.News)

It makes me very curious! Would you be able to provide us with social media links so that our community could follow and check the project?

Vaishnav Thakur

Sure

We update our community with each and every milestone of the project that speaks for itself 🙂
