we have already achieved $435 sbd through donations during the soft launch that lasted 2 weeks

The ultimate goal of this fundraiser is to raise enough money to help pay for long term hosting of the website for the first year, early creation of artwork, programming for the game, and committing to conservation goals for real world change to the world.

Our financial goal we wish to achieve over the remaining 28 days is a minimum of $1,000 SBD with that amount

10% will go towards planting new trees at $1 per sapling
20% will go towards site hosting for the first year
30% will go towards crypto conversion fees and taxes
15% will go towards artwork production for the first month
15% will go towards programming for the first month
10% will go towards marketing for the first month

If we exceed our initial fundraising goals, we will renew as many of the categories above as possible on a month by month basis, we will keep a transparent breakdown of our monthly earnings and expenses so that you know where your contributions to this project go.

Now onto the main event for today the Official launch of presale land tokens.

3 city reservation tokens
34 town reservation tokens
43 Land Blocks

2719 Small Plots

For the next 4 weeks anyone may buy (when in supply):

any of the below

It is absolutely encouraged that if you wish to start a town or city in the game that you do not come at this alone. Once the game has officially started(TBD), all players will have limited stamina bars that will be refreshed based on their food, activity levels, and sleep quality.
Building a town/city will require many people to shoulder the workload if you wish to acquire materials, construct buildings, and build a community within a timely manner.
Even the strongest of bank accounts cannot buy their way to a fully developed town (unless purchased from another player that took the time and energy to develop it).

That being said, your weekly stipend of in-game currency should be used to hire other players in the game to harvest and transport materials for you or help construct buildings you wish to have on your land.

If you choose to do so, these are available to buy :

Land SmallPlot:$5 SBD = 1/4th of a QuarterBlock

Owning 1 of these token means you have a permanent stake in the upcoming world of TwinForge and you are entitled to earning 25 Marks per week of in-game currency and the ability to name and describe your small little piece of the world. This piece of land is 6.25sqm.

(each square above is a smallplot)

Land QuarterBlock:$10 SBD = 1/4th of a Land Block

Owning 1 of these token means you have a permanent stake in the upcoming game world of TwinForge and you are entitled to earning 50 Marks per week of in-game currency and the ability to name and describe your little piece of the world. This piece of land is 25sqm.

Town Reservation Tokens: $75 SBD =1/9th of a City

Owning 1 of these tokens means you have a permanent stake in the upcoming game world of TwinForge and you are entitled to earning 600 Marks per week of in-game currency. This is not land, it is a way of reserving space within the game to be bought by only you in the future. This is also the only way to have an official Town in the game that will be visible on the World map for players to see your town profile, which is named and described by you. This reservation allows for 900sqm of land to be unobtainable by anyone else in the destination you choose on the map, unless you sell it directly to them. You must purchase the land separately and lock to this area in order for it to be counted as part of your town reserve.

City Reservation Tokens: $225 SBD =1/81 of a world region

Owning 1 of these tokens means you have a permanent stake in the upcoming game world of TwinForge and you are entitled to earning 1,800 Marks per week of in-game currency. This is not land, it is a way of reserving space within the game to be bought by only you in the future. This is also the only way to have an official Town in the game that will be visible on the World map for players to see your town profile, which is named and described by you. This reservation allows for 8100sqm of land to be unobtainable by anyone else in the destination you choose on the map, unless you sell it directly to them. You must purchase the land separately and lock to this area in order for it to be counted as part of your city reserve.

Every time a block of land is bought, 16 numbers will be randomly generated between 1 and 16. Each number represents 1 small plot and the 4 land types with 4 starting variants they will become.

these numbers get turned into a layout like this

(LandBlock show above)
Which ever land type is more dominant of the 16 will be the official visible block land on the map

If you buy a quarter block then only 4 random numbers will be drawn

If you buy a small plot then only 1 random number will be drawn

Also, anyone who purchases land tokens will have a random chance to discover an ancient rune section. There are 4 ancient ruin sections to every city (8100sqm).
When the game starts, players will be able to transport their rune sections to each other until all 4 are pieced back together. Each completed ruin may be powered temporarily by gems and gem shards found rarely while mining to open a portal to transport a player and their hog cart to any other ruin portal that has been completed within the same continent.

If you wish to buy one of the land,city or town reservations during the Official launch pre-sale, simply leave a comment on this post with your discord name or leave a message on the Twinforge discord pre-alpha chat and I will DM you through QuantumNachos#8872 as soon as possible

Thank you all for taking the time to read about this fundraiser if you cannot contribute financially it would be greatly appreciated if you resteemed the post.

TwinForge

is a multiplayer rpg that revolves heavily around resource management through harvesting materials and crafting them into useful tools, furniture,buildings,bridges and more.
At the heart of this game will be a thriving series of communities all with their own towns cities and residential areas built through hard work of the people by gathering materials of all varieties crafting them into what they need and selling what they don't to nearby or even far distanced lands. Traveling with wares from town to town can be a vital part of your gameplay or simply owning your own land and building it into a bustling town with the help of other players in the game. It is up to you how you wish to play.
