Somnia, a Layer 1 blockchain virtual society platform, has launched an app that helps builders create Metaverse experiences. Announced on July 18th, the beta version of Somnia Playground aims to help creators build, share, and monetize their own virtual worlds.
Features and Performance
The Somnium Space Playground Beta allows creatives to build Metaverse worlds, invite friends, and display NFTs. This sandbox environment is where creators can try out their ideas without the need for time-consuming and costly server infrastructure.
Somnia says Somnia Playground will make it easier to create and publish metaverse content, allowing creators to further develop their vision.
Somnia is an interoperability protocol-based, 300k+ tps EVM Layer-1. This setup brings together metaverses, games, NFTs, and social platforms into a cohesive on-chain virtual society. The Somnia Playground provides content creators a place to play, refine, and polish their metaverse experiences before going live on Somnia.
Users can invite friends with a referral code to climb the quest leaderboards and show off their NFTs, or build experiences in the virtual world to earn rewards in digital currency or assets of their choice. Season 2 is coming, with new incentive quests that will give users more challenges to make Playground the best experience possible.
Future Development
Currently Playground is in its first version. Improvements are planned on the roadmap, including a user-friendly tool that will allow you to easily publish MML objects to the Somnium protocol, allowing you to create, customize, and share unique items within the Metaverse.
Other plans include increasing the capacity of all spaces, which currently sit at 20, and adding voice chat for a more immersive way of interacting. Once Somnia goes live on mainnet, creations will be available for trading via the Web3 Marketplace.
Paul Thomas, CEO of Somnia, commented on the platform’s potential: “We’re excited to hear what creators think about Somnia Playground. Our goal is to empower creators with the tools they need to realize their Metaverse vision. With Somnia Playground, we’re lowering the barriers to entry and empowering a new generation of creators to create innovative digital experiences.”
conclusion
Somnia Playground will be looking to play a much more interesting role in providing access to Metaverse creations as it expands into a friendly web-based platform. Somnium puts the future of immersive digital content in the hands of content creators.
