Neon Strike - The Shop Is Up And Running!

It has been about a month since I updated on my progress in Neon Strike. You can read about my earlier posts here and here.

As always, it's good to review and take stock of projects that I am involved once in a while and a monthly frequency seems to be a good timeframe. Of course, before I begin, special thanks to @jim-crypto and @taradraz1 for making this post possible, because without them, I wouldn't have a chance to try out Neon Strike, which I believe is currently in the Alpha phase.

To recap, I was given a complimentary NFT to try out this game, I have been playing this almost everyday! And after a few weeks, here's my early review. Initially, I think this was going to be a complicated game that required a lot of thinking (think Splinterlands) but I quickly realised that it's a very chill game. With my sole NFT, most of the effort can be done with a few clicks.

Before I go further, here's some screenshots from the game site - https://neonstrike.up.railway.app/

The Welcome Page

Recently, the Shop is up and running! Over here, you can buy or sell your NFTs.

Finally, the Inventory Page, with my Rare NFT Kyle, who is up to Level 6 now!

My Journey So Far

The first month saw me being restricted to doing Mission 1 because it's the only mission that is complimentary and the rest of the missions cost NEON tokens to unlock, but they give better rewards. Each mission takes 8 hours, and the NEON token rewards depend on the mission and the NFT Power. At the start, I was getting 19 NEON tokens each mission, and it slowly increased when my NFT levelled up.

The second month was better because I managed to save up 700 NEON tokens to purchase Mission 2. This reinvestment allowed me to earn experience reward faster, level my NFT faster, which in turn generates more NEON token rewards.

This month, I reaped the benefits from my efforts in my first two months and it was fun to see the rate at which I was earning NEON tokens because my NFT is now Level 6. During this period, I also noticed there are improvements to the game, major ones such as the Shop, minor ones such as the timer countdown in the missions, which are good for the user experience. So thumbs up to the team.


Click To Earn?

So the question is, how much can one earn through this click to earn game? Let's look at the current prices on Tribaldex. Since one month ago, the price of NEON have gone up significantly. One month ago, 100 NEON was trading at 0.85 to 1.49 Hive. Today, the same 100 NEON is trading at 0.75 to 1.49 Hive. Pretty stable over the past month.

After about 3 months of playing, I have earned 1,923 NEON tokens, of which 700 NEON tokens went into the purchase of Mission 2, to collect NEON at a faster rate in the future. That's about 1,223 NEON tokens left. That's works out to be 9.17 to 18.22 Hive at today's prices. Hive is currently trading at 0.194 USD, so that works out to 1.78 to 3.54 USD. As expected, this is not a get rich quick game (no games are like that), but the little NEON tokens stack up over time and it gives me flexibility to do things on Hive, be it buying missions in the game, or even converting and powering up my Hive Power. And I like that as the level of the NFT goes up, the rate of earning NEON is much faster too!

With that, I hope that gives a rough idea of how the game works, and what to expect from a returns perspective. That said, am still pretty new to this game so I am still learning and exploring. Do note that the game is still in Alpha phase so perhaps more stuff will appear too. Will share more if I find anything interesting later on. If you have any tips, let me know too!

I didn't try the game, but after reading your post, I noticed that I like what I see! The artwork looks great, and it's also great to hear a stable token price for a game...

Let's see what happens when the game comes out from alpha... We need more successful games on HIVE and Neon Strike could be one of them!

Nice post! Have you only been playing level 2 to get your card up to level 6? I realized a few weeks ago that this is the best level for gaining XP, as it is a +35xp.

Still so much to discover in this game too. Do you know what these recourses are for?

Hey thanks for dropping by! Yeah I started with Mission 1, then unlocked Mission 2, and it has always been Mission 2. The XP is good for now, so am happy to stay with Mission 2 for a little while before I explore further.

Do you know what these recourses are for?

Hmm am not sure though! Got to ask in their Discord hehe!
