Cardano Summit 2022
We created 2 videos for the Cardano Summit which were held in Switzerland. The first was a 10-minute showreel video with a voice-over from Rob and Josh. The second was in the style of COPICafe (without the drinks) and is a thankyou to Cardano and our Community. Both were streamed world-wide during the Cardano Summit.
We also filmed an interview with Maria Carmo that was shown at the Brazilian Cardano Summit. Additionally, Rob and Josh attended a live panel via Zoom during the event discussing the Metaverse with 3 other Metaverse projects - see here for more details.
MARKETING
COPICafe Episode 30 was released with an interview with the ChainPort CEO and CTO. Episode 31 had a team interview with Mark, who edits COPICafe and does a lot of our print and website design work. Episode 32 showed a great leak on how the Cornucopias World will be laid out. We also created a special Thanksgiving episode.
ART
Unreal Engine 5 land sculpting for Zone 1 - Solace is almost complete and Zone 2 - Esperanza continues at a fast pace; now we have more artists.
Unreal Engine 5.1 was released and we first tested the code that would port over from UE 5.0 and then made the full transition. UE 5.1 has some major updates to help improve performance and optimize the way we can build the Cornucopias Metaverse.
All the in-game assets of Cornucopias are built internally by our talented team. We DO NOT use any off the shelf/marketplace assets in our UE5 Metaverse or Mobile Game.
PC GAME
Sprints Completed: 32 Started: 33.
High level planning and estimates for the work are being converted to User Stories.
Unreal Engine version 5.1 has been released and we have been testing it to see if it is stable enough to rollout to all the developers. So far it looks great and offers a 20% performance gain, more world-building tools and lots of other needed upgrades; some of these were discussed in COPICafe Episode 32.
MOBILE GAME
UE5 Mobile Planning Continues and the new gameplay will be incredible - we talk a little about this on COPICafe episode 31. The new Mobile Game Design Document is almost complete.
DESKTOP LAUNCHER
Development continues and scope has been increased.
API work continues.
Internal Version was released and tested.
