With love from me, Nika ✨
Here’s a fresh drop from Somniaverse — the monthly Discord session where the whole Somnia team spills the alpha. Packed with 🔥 updates, sneak peeks, and game dev magic.
Let’s dive into what’s brewing in the Somniaverse!
🧟 NIGHTSPAWN: ESCAPE ROOM MEETS HORROR
Somnia announced a new banger: Nightspawn, a survival horror escape room with asymmetric multiplayer. You solve puzzles, team up with others, and sometimes... play as the monster.
This isn’t just a spooky vibe, it’s a whole new game mode that could pop off like Battle Royale or MOBAs once did.
✨ My take: Escape rooms + Web3 + horror = a potential genre-breaker.
🎮 GAME FIRST, CHAIN SECOND
Somnia's strategy is clear: they pick GOOD games first, then upgrade them with Web3 features. Some titles even started on Steam!
Forget Ponzi-style DeFi "games" — these are actual fun titles brought into Web3 land, with better UX and new community dynamics.
✨ My take: Web2 polish + Web3 ownership = win.
🧠 DARKTABLE: BUILD DECKS, NOT DEBT
Darktable's new twist? Build your deck from scratch without spending a fortune.
No RNG packs, no $500 meta cards — just pick what you want and start playing.
✨ My take: Trading card gamers, this one’s for your wallets.
📱 QR-SCANNING GAMES?!
QR Seder turns any QR code into a custom game level. Imagine finding codes IRL like Pokémon GO, but instead of Pikachu... you get puzzles and loot.
✨ My take: Gamified reality? Inject it into my veins.
🌊 MAELSTROM: FAST-PACED BOAT BATTLES
Maelstrom is already making waves. Quick battles, controller support (finally!), and fun gameplay that even busy founders can squeeze in.
✨ My take: Web3 gaming that respects your time. Yes pls.
🧪 GAMERS LAB = STATS, STAKES & STREAMING DRAMA
Gamers Lab lets devs put game metadata (kills, wins, deaths) on-chain — enabling:
-
Leaderboards
-
Matchmaking
-
Bounties on streamers
-
Wagering mechanics
You can even bet on yourself: "I’ll sink 2 ships this match. $10 says so."
✨ My take: The Twitch salt wars are about to go Web3.
😺 NFTS TO ME & 4U AI MINTS
Somnia’s NFT tooling is ON FIRE:
-
4U AI: 1.4M+ NFTs minted (cats, obviously)
-
NFTs To Me: mint your own project in minutes
And yes, you can still mint. Go wild.
✨ My take: NFTs are fun again. Who knew?
🎨 YAPPER TAKEOVER
Small accounts are crushing the Yap leaderboard lately. Creativity > follower count. Also:
-
Haley + Grateful = minted gratitude movement
-
Daily spotlights + Yapper collabs popping off
-
Team PFP NFTs = community love
✨ My take: This is the healthiest engagement meta I’ve seen in months.
💰 WEEKEND QUESTS = USDC + POINTS
This week brings 2 quests:
-
Horror NFT quest (inspired by Nightspawn)
-
DeFi multi-part quest with boosted points
Do them. Seriously.
✨ My take: Quests with real rewards? Inject that too.
🎤 IRL PRESENCE: PARIS, HERE WE COME
Somnia’s team is prepping for ECC + Proof of Talk in Paris. Talks, activations, and ecosystem showcases coming soon.
✨ My take: Web3 gaming is going global, and Somnia’s leading the charge.
🕹️ PIXSCAPE PLAYTEST: CHAOS, SKILLS & LOOT
Hive Invasion from Pixscape just dropped its alpha dungeon playtest.
It’s a browser-based MMORPG with:
-
Adaptive skills
-
Co-op & PvP coming
-
Crazy fast Somnia infra support
✨ My take: Web3 pixel nostalgia + skill curve = promising AF.
💬 TL;DR
-
Nightspawn = next-gen horror escape
-
Deck-building without wallet pain
-
QR games IRL??
-
Gamers Lab = on-chain stats + drama
-
Weekend quests = 💸
-
Yapper magic alive and well
Stay weird, stay Web3 — and keep yapping 📲
