Hello, everyone,
I'm Adam Novak from Novak Distributed, and I wanted to announce here a project I have been working on, combining procedural world generation and blockchain-based smart contract technology.
Macroverse
Macroverse is a procedurally generated universe, available to be used by blockchain-based games. Rather than paying expensive gas costs to store environment and level data on the blockchain, or spending large amounts of developer effort on custom world generation algorithms, game developers will be able to use Macroverse as a piece of game development middleware, and to find settings for their games by exploring the single, shared Macroverse universe.
The Macroverse world is generated by the Macroverse Generator (MG), a system of smart contracts. The Macroverse Star Generator, which produces a galaxy of over 200 billion stars of various classes, is deployed at address 0x56D96b6a5F33E2efE5BE66065D5b9C230B1f4e0e using this source code. Addresses with a balance of (currently) 100 MRV or more may query the generator's various constant functions and receive information about the Macroverse world.
Virtual Real Estate
Players exploring the Macroverse world will be able to discover, claim, and trade virtual real estate. If you find a particularly compelling star, planet, or geographical feature, you will be able to purchase it and make it yours. Ownership of real estate may confer beneficial effects or advantages in supported games.
Virtual real estate claims are manged by the Macroverse Registry, a system of smart contracts. Currently, the only contract is the Macroverse Star Registry, at address 0x6C00556F471cbe518007D62bc4ACEd6d8e537c9D using this source code, which allows players to claim (transferable, releasable) ownership of star systems, by putting up a deposit of (currently) 1000 MRV.
MRV Token
The Macroverse token, MRV, is an ERC20-compatible token on the Ethereum blockchain. Players must hold a minimum balance in the MRV token to query the Macroverse system, and deposits denominated in MRV must be put up in order to claim virtual real estate. The MRV token will be distributed in a crowdsale beginning July 1st at approximately 10 AM PST.
Token Facts
Name: Macroverse Token
Symbol: MRV
Decimals: 18
Token Contract: 0xAB6CF87a50F17d7F5E1FEaf81B6fE9FfBe8EBF84
Total Supply: Up to 100,005,000 MRV
Available for Sale: 100,000,000 MRV
Crowdsale Price: 5,000 MRV per ETH
Crowdsale Start Scheduled: 10:02 AM PST on July 1
Crowdsale Duration: 90 days
Crowdsale Contract (same as token contract): 0xAB6CF87a50F17d7F5E1FEaf81B6fE9FfBe8EBF84
Crowdsale/Token Contract Source: Here
More details are available here.
The MRV token is intended to function like a software license, enabling people to use the Macroverse system. It is not indented to represent a stake in the Macroverse project, and is not designed to increase in value over time.
In addition to trying to sell tokens, I'm posting here to gauge developer interest in building atop a platform like this, and to gather suggestions as to what features would be good to have when extending the system from just generating stars down to generating planets, terrain, weather, and other world features described in the whitepaper. Feedback is appreciated!

Any updates on your project?
How many 100 MRV to USD?
0.02 ETH; calculate this to USD... 
How many 100 MRV to USD?
There are no bounty promotions for this and why is it too long for this ICO , 90 days duration is too much for the ico . 30-40days is enough to prove if it will become successful or not. The duration will be based on its project then this Ico will be finished early.
is there any bounty sir? like airdrop or social media bounty?
Buy MRV from HitBTC exchange directly: https://hitbtc.com/exchange/MRV-to-ETH
There is no bounty program, it seems to be not very attractive to people who want money
By the way, am really impressed that you only keeping 5000 units for yourself. Talk about been fair.
Anyway, what's the plan for the unsold units? I did see that number of sold units determine the ultimate supply. Also, i know the token is utilized for claiming virtual real estate, but do you have any plans on listing it on an exchange or would you even be interested in doing so?

Well, I think people should know more details and prospect about your project. And are you planning to run the crowdsale without any bounty campaign?
Yeah, there are no plans for a bounty campaign, to pay people in tokens to post on social media. I know they're very popular, and presumably they're effective or people wouldn't do them, but they frankly offend my sensibilities. A bunch of people being paid to tweet about something is to me a good indication that I shouldn't spend my money on that thing.
Good for you. I never understood it, cos most ppl who participate could careless about the project. Your thread is one of the few projects not cog up with translation reservation/ social media request. This way participation is limited to those that actually believe in the project.
the idea is to be used in another games? or the macroverse will have a "base" game?
Yes, the idea is to be a shared world that can be used in other games. Especially for games that just need some outdoor terrain, it could be easier to find a place of the right shape to set your game in than to hire environment artists to design terrain and then spend the money to store it all on-chain for verifiability.
Of course, I'm already thinking of cool game ideas to build on top of it, so if nobody else bites, at least I'll have something to work with.
Cool concept, but without a working prototype I'm not buying any. Too much like No Man's Sky, and we know how that went 
What kind of prototype are you looking for? There is this prototype deployed on the Ethereum chain right now, and it works.
Here's a listing of the stars in the (0,0,0) sector, from the test suite:

There's a nice G-type star (number 4) that might eventually have some habitable planets, and a relatively rare giant K-type star, and a white dwarf. There's all sorts of gameplay possibilities there; even something as simple as a Noctis clone, where you fly around refueling at white dwarfs, would be pretty fun.
Reading console dumps is not a particularly slick way to explore the universe, so I'm planning to develop a nice front end to let people explore the generated world in a web3-enabled browser, to hopefully be completed before the crowdsale is over. Is that the sort of prototype you're looking for?
Cool, didn't see that. Looking forward to seeing this coin mature. But yeah, some sort of fancy thing is gonna be needed for this to go big, i think most people don't want to buy meaningless coordinates. Also, there should be some super-rare types of things.
the idea is to be used in another games? or the macroverse will have a "base" game?
You can customize some bounty activities to attract partners to help you promote, add some popularity, it is necessary
Cool concept, but without a working prototype I'm not buying any. Too much like No Man's Sky, and we know how that went
What kind of prototype are you looking for? There is this prototype deployed on the Ethereum chain right now, and it works.

There's a nice G-type star (number 4) that might eventually have some habitable planets, and a relatively rare giant K-type star, and a white dwarf. There's all sorts of gameplay possibilities there; even something as simple as a Noctis clone, where you fly around refueling at white dwarfs, would be pretty fun.
Reading console dumps is not a particularly slick way to explore the universe, so I'm planning to develop a nice front end to let people explore the generated world in a web3-enabled browser, to hopefully be completed before the crowdsale is over. Is that the sort of prototype you're looking for?
Well, I think people should know more details and prospect about your project. And are you planning to run the crowdsale without any bounty campaign?
Yeah, there are no plans for a bounty campaign, to pay people in tokens to post on social media. I know they're very popular, and presumably they're effective or people wouldn't do them, but they frankly offend my sensibilities. A bunch of people being paid to tweet about something is to me a good indication that I shouldn't spend my money on that thing.
Cool concept, but without a working prototype I'm not buying any. Too much like No Man's Sky, and we know how that went

Hello, everyone,
I'm Adam Novak from Novak Distributed, and I wanted to announce here a project I have been working on, combining procedural world generation and blockchain-based smart contract technology.
Macroverse
Macroverse is a procedurally generated universe, available to be used by blockchain-based games. Rather than paying expensive gas costs to store environment and level data on the blockchain, or spending large amounts of developer effort on custom world generation algorithms, game developers will be able to use Macroverse as a piece of game development middleware, and to find settings for their games by exploring the single, shared Macroverse universe.
The Macroverse world is generated by the Macroverse Generator (MG), a system of smart contracts. The Macroverse Star Generator, which produces a galaxy of over 200 billion stars of various classes, is deployed at address 0x56D96b6a5F33E2efE5BE66065D5b9C230B1f4e0e using this source code. Addresses with a balance of (currently) 100 MRV or more may query the generator's various constant functions and receive information about the Macroverse world.
Virtual Real Estate
Players exploring the Macroverse world will be able to discover, claim, and trade virtual real estate. If you find a particularly compelling star, planet, or geographical feature, you will be able to purchase it and make it yours. Ownership of real estate may confer beneficial effects or advantages in supported games.
Virtual real estate claims are manged by the Macroverse Registry, a system of smart contracts. Currently, the only contract is the Macroverse Star Registry, at address 0x6C00556F471cbe518007D62bc4ACEd6d8e537c9D using this source code, which allows players to claim (transferable, releasable) ownership of star systems, by putting up a deposit of (currently) 1000 MRV.
MRV Token
The Macroverse token, MRV, is an ERC20-compatible token on the Ethereum blockchain. Players must hold a minimum balance in the MRV token to query the Macroverse system, and deposits denominated in MRV must be put up in order to claim virtual real estate. The MRV token will be distributed in a crowdsale beginning July 1st at approximately 10 AM PST.
Token Facts
Name: Macroverse Token
Symbol: MRV
Decimals: 18
Token Contract: 0xAB6CF87a50F17d7F5E1FEaf81B6fE9FfBe8EBF84
Total Supply: Up to 100,005,000 MRV
Available for Sale: 100,000,000 MRV
Crowdsale Price: 5,000 MRV per ETH
Crowdsale Start Scheduled: 10:02 AM PST on July 1
Crowdsale Duration: 90 days
Crowdsale Contract (same as token contract): 0xAB6CF87a50F17d7F5E1FEaf81B6fE9FfBe8EBF84
Crowdsale/Token Contract Source: Here
More details are available here.
The MRV token is intended to function like a software license, enabling people to use the Macroverse system. It is not indented to represent a stake in the Macroverse project, and is not designed to increase in value over time.
In addition to trying to sell tokens, I'm posting here to gauge developer interest in building atop a platform like this, and to gather suggestions as to what features would be good to have when extending the system from just generating stars down to generating planets, terrain, weather, and other world features described in the whitepaper. Feedback is appreciated!
