STATS
We are thrilled to announce that our Open Alpha pre-registration numbers surpassed our expectations, with 64,000+ gamers eagerly awaiting their chance to dive into the immersive world of Sipher Odyssey from all corners of the globe.
THANKS TO OUR COMMUNITY
As we reflect on the incredible journey so far, we are filled with gratitude for each and every one of you who formed part of the Sipher Odyssey community, and we’re highly appreciative of those who played during Closed Alpha and contributed to the development of Open Alpha.
To all of you, we owe a debt of gratitude. Your feedback and dedication have been the driving force behind every milestone we've achieved. Whether it's through grinding up the leaderboard, bug reporting, feedback suggesting, or simply spreading the word, your contributions have been invaluable.
A special shout-out to all players who poured in hours gaming and testing our game (addicted much? 😼), and especially to the top 10 Epic Grind Masters, which include (in alphabetical order): Akichuaki, kappash, LMArno, Magilas, MossyWossy, ntknguyen, somnuzz, spridarn, and Zeee. Also a big congrats to our Closed Alpha leaderboard winners, somnuzz and spridarn, who earned themselves limited-edition Sculptures by staying on top of the rankings 🤩
We are honored to have such a passionate community by our side and promise to continue striving for excellence in everything we do.
THANKS TO OUR PARTNERS
None of this would have been possible without the invaluable support of our partners and collaborators, who supported us through the Closed Alpha by playtesting, providing feedback, and onboarding their communities.
We extend our deepest appreciation to each of them for their unwavering support and for helping Sipher Odyssey reach wider audiences.
OPEN ALPHA DEVELOPER NOTES
FINAL NOTE FROM OUR CEO
Going from Closed Alpha to Open Alpha is a major milestone, and I'm very happy that we have so much support for us all steps of the way. We know that to get something like Sipher Odyssey built, at this level of quality, with this level of passion, through the crazy ups and downs, is nothing short of catching lightning in a bottle. However, this is still a small step to the big Global launch that we are all gunning for. I know that a few community members have voiced their questions regarding in part about revisions to Tokenomics and more importantly, the path forward as one of the first quality web3 driven Gaming IP projects. Rest assured that our intentions and goals have never changed, only more ambitious. We want to deliver the best of our abilities a gaming IP that drives sustainable value to the people who make it happen. Yet before web3 elements can surface we need to first make sure that our 1st game is rock solid, battle-tested, metrics-proven, and ready for worldwide release. Let's set our eyes on the prize, not the price. Once the Open Alpha gives us the important data that we need, the big web3 flywheel is coming. Until then stay tuned, and please join the Open Alpha, enjoy the game and our upcoming updates, and give us the wonderful feedback that you have been so far. Together, we'll show the gaming world our conviction, mettle, and resolve. Let's catch that ⚡️ many more times. Ex Uno Plures.
Tin Nguyen CEO, Sipher Odyssey
