Yesterday we dropped a Town Star bomb, announcing that #TSP2E early access will begin next week, October 5th with THIS POST. You must have been eagerly awaiting this big announcement, because the questions immediately began rolling in.

We intend to have published resources (both on Support.Gala.Games and the soon-to-launch Town Star website) available soon that will hopefully answer all your questions. Most of the team is heads-down, working hard on TSP2E and other exciting developments, but while you wait, here’s a handy breakdown of the most asked questions (with answers) over the last 24 hours.

Will you only be able to earn with placed NFTs?

Yes.

Will node operators get daily TownCoin distribution?

Yes, if they complete their node requirements for that day.

Will all TownStar placeable NFTs be able to earn?

Yes.

Will skins also earn TownCoin?

No.

What is ⚡Gala Power⚡?

⚡Gala Power⚡ is a system of levels proportional to how many of your NFTs will be eligible for daily play-to-earn rewards in TownCoin, based on the amounts of GALA and TownCoin you are currently holding. In the future, this number may also include other factors such as NFTs, account age, and referrals.

Will GALA in your Treasure Chest count towards your ⚡Gala Power⚡?

Yes.

Will holding TownCoin have benefits?

Yes. Holding TownCoin will add to your ⚡Gala Power⚡at a 2X rate.
For example, if you are a level 2, you can get to level 4 by holding half as much TownCoin as you could holding GALA.

What will future TownCoin utility be?

Here are 2 examples: (lots of future possibilities are being discussed)
Items will be released in the Gala Games store that are purchasable only with TownCoin. Eventually, buildings may be upgradeable by spending TownCoin.

What is the max supply of TownCoin?

1 Quadrillion (1,000,000,000,000,000) (to 8 decimals)

Where can I purchase TownCoin?

Following the initial Beta launch, the ERC-20 token TownCoin can be earned, but not yet purchased.

How often is ⚡Gala Power⚡ updated?

⚡Gala Power⚡ will be updated in real time. A refresh may be required to view the updated value.

If I withdraw GALA will it immediately affect my ⚡Gala Power⚡?

Yes, withdrawing GALA will immediately affect your ⚡Gala Power⚡.

Will I eventually be able to purchase Season Passes with TownCoin?

Yes, but not necessarily during the first round.

Will NFTs in your Treasure Chest be placeable and able to earn?

Yes.

How will levels of ⚡Gala Power⚡ relate to the number of NFT eligible for rewards?

Each level will allow you to place one NFT. Example: if you are level 20, you will be able to place 20 NFTs to earn TownCoin.

Will VOX be playable in Town Star?

Yes. Look for a post tomorrow with more information.

How are NFT rarities determined?

Town Star NFT rarity will be determined by total supply on-chain.
VOX rarity will be determined by their current rarity according to rarity score at https://rarity.tools/collectvox

How are the amounts of GALA and TownCoin held used to determine ⚡Gala Power⚡ level?

⚡Gala Power⚡ Equation:

Gala Power = Gala Coin + (Town Coin*2)

⚡Gala Power⚡ Scale (Subject to change)

Levels 1–20: Every 5K ⚡Gala Power⚡ held increases your level by one
Levels 21–35: Every 10K ⚡Gala Power⚡ held increases your level by one
Levels 36–45: Every 25K ⚡Gala Power⚡ held increases your level by one
Levels 46–55: Every 50K ⚡Gala Power⚡ held increases your level by one
Levels 56–65: Every 100K ⚡Gala Power⚡ held increases your level by one
Levels 66–73: Every 1M ⚡Gala Power⚡ held increases your level by one
Levels 74–81: Every 5M ⚡Gala Power⚡ held increases your level by one
Levels 82–86: Every 10M ⚡Gala Power⚡ held increases your level by one
Levels 87–94: Every 50M ⚡Gala Power⚡ held increases your level by one
Levels 95–100: Every 100M ⚡Gala Power⚡ held increases your level by one

How about it, town stars? Are you enjoying Town Star Play-to-Earn as much as we are? The weeks leading up to this soft launch have been a wild ride for the Gala Games team, working hard, making ambitious goals, then knocking them down one by one. Now that the first version is live in early access, we like what we’re seeing.

Town Star Play-to-Earn FAQ
Town Star Play-to-Earn Overview
Get in the Game!

We released the first TownCoin exclusive item in the Town Star store (Solar Panels) on Monday as a teaser, but after the first day of play-to-earn rewards, they started selling like hot cakes. These passive energy producing units give you not only a huge boost to the productivity of your towns, but even more daily potential TownCoin rewards!

Place them next to your industrial buildings for various amounts of passive energy that will increase your production efficiency. Make gasoline more quickly, spin yarn faster, even speed up your lumber crafting. Best of all, you can pick them up and place them elsewhere as quickly as a couple clicks.

The Daily Challenge

Players have been loving the new Daily Challenge feature, which when completed, unlocks your daily TownCoin earnings if you have NFTs placed in your town. Even those with no NFTs in the game are enjoying the new challenge of trying to accumulate 1000 Stars as quickly as they can, but beware! It won’t always be 1000 Stars.

In the not so distant future, this Daily Challenge will be expanded to bring you a new challenge every day, sharing fun story pieces from the lives of your favorite Town Star characters. For now, just sit tight and enjoy “Ornery Poultry” until we get the ball rolling on the next wave of exclusive Daily Challenges, which will really start to shake things up!

The Season Pass

An important thing to keep in mind about TSP2E is that it won’t always be free to participate! Season 1 (early access) is free, but play-to-earn admission to later seasons will require a Season Pass. Final details on the Season Pass are still TBA and we will keep you posted as everything gets finalized. For now, enjoy those free play-to-earn TownCoin rewards and tell all your friends to get in this game!

Early Access = Changes are Possible

Please remember that this is early access. Our incredible community would be disappointed with us if we did not do everything in our power to create the best play-to-earn economy we can. This is why we truly appreciate your patience and understanding every time there is a bug or change in the system.

This is uncharted territory. Numbers will sometimes need tweaked, exact rewards will change regularly based on blockchain rarity, and from time to time the Gala Games team may decide to move in a different direction or alter plans for the good of the ecosystem. Do not jump to conclusions, do not blame us for acts of FOMO, and do not take community leaks and announcements as eternal law.

We will always do our best to repeatedly inform you of all changes through Discord and social media announcements. We will also preface all announcements with phrases such as “these details are subject to change” in hopes that our transparency of process is not mistaken for ironclad promises.

Thanks as always to our incredibly supportive community for making this play-to-earn early access launch a success. We can hardly wait to bring you the next wave of exciting Town Star updates starting at the beginning of next week, including new TownCoin exclusive units, more content, new Daily Challenges and more!
