🦤Dodo Care Center

Where your caretaker journey begins

Disclaimer: The project will evolve over time, and I will do my very best to update the informations you can find there. If you have a doubt you can contact me on Discord (Cigale#0001)

Introduction

After being born, Dodo are actually still fragile creatures. Sure, they can take a fight, but they also need someone to care for them! And that’s your role as a Dodo caretaker

Cigale Pixel is proud to announce his first game in collaboration with the great Dodo Farming project. You will be able with the help of tools to increase your dodo happiness.

How to play

The Dodo Care Center is a journey you can live on my Discord Server. You will need :

A WAX Wallet (https://wax.guide/tutorial-how-to-create-a-wax-wallet/)

A bit of RAM to stock up on NFTs (https://wax.bloks.io/wallet/ram/buy)

A companion :

A tool (up to one for each category)

After that, follow the instructions on the Discord server and begin your journey with the Dodo Care Center !

Basic elements

Some key features of the game explained

Companion

The Companion is your main ally during your adventure in the Dodo Lands. There is multiple companions available, each with their own base characteristics, way to progress, and mood cycle.

You will need to tell a companion to follow you from the Companion interface. After that every time you take care of your companion, one of their stat will progress according to the duration and mood of the companion.

The companion characteristics are the following :

  • Muscles (linked to the STR stat in Pixel Fighters)

  • Brilliance (linked to the STL stat in Pixel Fighters)

  • Will (linked to the INT stat in Pixel Fighters)

  • Stamina (linked to the VIT stat in Pixel Fighters)

The companion has a max level that can be achieved, and the current level is the truncated sum of all characteristics

Here is the current list of companions available :

Dodos

The dodos are the NFT from the coindodocard collection. They will be important because no dodo to take care of = no Care points. The total of Care points you will be able to earn is based on two things:

  • The total number of dodos you own

  • The variety of dodos (aya, apollo, bowie…) and rarities in your collection (common, place, rare, epic, legendary and mythic). Each complete set for a given rarity will give you a bonus

Care

Care is the only thing that matters to you in this game. Care is a score you increase with different methods, and will represent your progression in the season. At the end of a season, all the best caretakers, which are the owners with the bigger amount of Care, will be rewarded according to the seasonal reward pool.

Care is set back to 0 between every season. Its only utility in this version of the game is to compare caretakers progression and reward the most active with unique NFTs, WAX and tools. A future gameplay will allow you to reset only on demand, and earn unique rewards based on your progress

Care Tools

Care Tools are NFT from the cigalepixeld collection which will be useful to get the precious Care points. They have a care value from 1 (Common) to 4 (Legendary). You will be able to use one at a time to take care of your Dodos by using a special command on a Discord channel. You will only be able to care for your dodos a limited number of times a day, with a cooldown set by tool (to prevent automation, asset transfer and 24/7 care). There will be different categories of tools:

  • Clean

  • Play

  • Feed

  • Sleep

These categories could be extended to include more features in the Dodo Care Center

Features

❤️ Care

How to care

The basic feature of the game. When you care about your dodos, you will choose one of your tool categories and apply its effects on the dodos.

care = base value * random modificator * mood modificator random modificator : from 0.85 to 1.15 mood modificator : see Mood below

Max Care

The Max Care is a hardcap to the **Care** points you are able to accumulate. It is calculated from the collection of Dodos and partenered collections you own in yor WAX wallet.

After reaching the Max Care cap, you won't be able to get more care unless you reset your game, earning PIXELS on the way !

Mood

Dodos seems to have a hive mind. They share needs that change over time ! Here are the different moods they can get :

  • NORMAL : Not particularly motivated nor lazy, they will do as you command

  • ANGRY : It seems that your dodos only want to be alone. Maybe this is not the right time to take care of them ?

  • JOYOUS : Happy dodo, happy life ! They will gladly do what you want them to, and are in a really good mood

  • DIRTY : Wandering in the stables, they probably need a good, warm bath. A good caretaker will probably help them get rid of all the dirt so they can feel better !

  • EXCITED : A lot of energy is only waiting to be spent ! Help your dodos do some sport and they will get in shape and ready for adventures

  • HUNGRY : You can hear their stomachs shouting for attention. While the Care Center provide a basic amount of food, they sometimes need a bit more. Give them some canned food or even better, fruits or fishes !

  • TIRED : After a long day, dodos are exhausted and need a cozy place to rest. Give them some sleep time and they will be grateful.

🦤 Adventure

While only being an additionnal daily action for a few Care points at the moment, Adventures will need caretakers to be even more attentive to their dodo needs.

Bring your dodos in a journey on the Dodo lands ! While you train to become the best caretaker in the Center, you get access to places to visit. Each day you will be able to live a small adventure with multiple choices. Those choices will require to have the right tool for the job and give you rewards in return. When the adventure ends, you will see your score, the Care points you got and if you are lucky the loot you found on your way !

✈️ How to depart for an adventure

The main thing you will need in an adventure is a backpack to bring your many tools with you. Without it you will only have your hands and will be able to bring a single tool, but to be ready for every situation it is advised to get a Bag !

🗺️ The Journey

After choosing the tools you want to bring with you, time to explore the Dodo Lands ! A serie of events will leave you with choices that can either stop your adventure early or get you further.

  • Each event that resolve positively will add Care points to the adventure total and improve your loot chances

  • Each event that resolve negatively will substract Care points to the adventure total and decrease your loot chances.

  • After each event, the adventure can stop or continue according to your dodos and your stamina. Events that resolve negatively consume more stamina so the duration of your adventure (and your rewards) will more likely be low if you can't provide your dodos what they need on your journey.

🏝️ Dodo Lands

The Dodo Lands are the different places you will be able to visit according to your total Care value

  • Lower tier lands will bring basic rewards and a low Care bonus

  • Higher tier lands will unlock better rarities and a higher Care bonus
