In Pulsar, players take command of colonization units with the goal of establishing bases across the planet WR-12. Exploration of the planet reveals incredible riches, including deposits of a highly coveted energy source — a unique mineral called Pulsar. In the fight to control the precious resources of WR-12 and to stave off the onslaught of hostile aliens roaming the planet, players must build alliances, expand their armies, and explore the deep underground dungeons below their lands.
Pulsar combines game elements of the Real Time Strategy (RTS) genre with a persistent, massively multiplayer online (MMO) world. Players control a collection of units and structures that they can upgrade and customize to best serve their play style. As they progress through the game, players aim to extract resources from Land, build and upgrade units, explore dungeons, battle aliens, and ultimately build the most expansive army and empire in the universe. In Pulsar, players own all of their assets, from units and structures to resources and upgrades. Everything can be owned, bought, sold, and traded on an open marketplace between players.
The world of Pulsar contains many different gaming experiences - from resource collection and NFT building to PVE and PVP combat - giving players the opportunity to create their own strategies to generate wealth and rise in the rankings. Whether a player wants to focus on creating and extracting value from the game economy or wants to prove their tactical skill in a PVE mission or in PVP combat, Pulsar offers a path for everyone.
Pulsar offers an enormous amount of units and structures that a player can choose to own, build, and customize. Through upgrade crafting and individual unit customization, players can tailor their army to fit their specific play style.
Pulsar features four different types of Land NFTs, or Biomes, each with its own unique attributes. These include Land Size, $PLSR Quantity, Resources, Resource Rarity, and Security Rating (PvE), all of which play an important role in the gameplay experience.
Players can extract or earn resources from the Land NFTs, which come in three different rarities - Common, Uncommon, and Rare - each with varying degrees of scarcity and benefits. Additionally, the Security Rating determines the spawn rate of PVE mobs on your Land, and the amount of resources contained within.
Furthermore, Pulsar offers additional Land Mechanics such as F2P 'Lending', taxation, and delegation, all of which add to the complexity of the game. Landowners can delegate management of their land and resources to a Commander, who will receive a portion of mined resources as a tax. The Landowner, on the other hand, will receive taxes on all Resources extracted and NFTs crafted and sold in the marketplace.
Pulsar is set to launch with an array of building and unit options for players to explore. In Pulsar, buildings serve a variety of functions, including refining raw materials and $PLSR tokens, manufacturing unit NFTs, and researching and upgrading existing NFTs. Resource refineries are the only refineries available at launch, which convert raw resources into on-chain resource tokens.
Units are also a key aspect of Pulsar, with several different types available. Miners extract resources from land and transport them to refineries, while combat units defend land from alien mobs and participate in multiplayer missions. The spider tank is the most common infantry unit in Pulsar and can be leveled up, upgraded, and customized. Other unit NFTs, such as drones, siege tanks, and transport vehicles, enable various mechanics in the game.
Motherships are another unit NFT available in Pulsar, controlling the number of units present on a player's land. Genesis motherships are a limited edition version of motherships that offer a permanent production boost and increased units and structures headcount. Mobile depots are another unit NFT that improve productivity by shuttling raw resources to refineries. Genesis mobile depots, unlike any other depots in the game, have a multipurpose storage container that can store any raw material and a 5% storage capacity increase.
Pulsar is currently on its beta and the game is live. Players can freely access the game on both Mac and Windows platforms without needing to buy NFTs or tokens initially. You can directly download it through the game's website.
