What is WUJI GAMES LLC and Earth Defenders?
Wuji Games is a video game developer focused on “green” gaming. Wuji integrates positive Environmental Action (IRL) into games utilizing NFT’s & the Metaverse.
Wuji’s first Game, Earth Defenders, will be the first Regenerative Gaming Rewards Engine & NFT Metaverse.
Earth Defender players will learn real permaculture skills including how to plant trees, fruits, vegetables, and plants as well as build homes, collect & store water and even produce energy. A portion of all in-game sales of NFTs (i.e. Skins, Tools, Characters, Weapons, Land and in-game level ups) will go towards planting trees, while NFTs representing the trees get minted. Our platform and Game Engine will track the regenerative actions such as trees being planted, and then use the Natural Capital Accounting principle to generate rewards from the improvement of living ecosystems, creating a new Green Standard where regenerating the earth is the new incentive.
After each tree gets planted it will be uploaded to an NFT blockchain platform, creating a new Protocol- Proof-of-CHI. The CHI is a protocol where a record is created and stored using an ERC1155 NFT Token and Polygon- Ethereum’s Internet of Blockchains, These records can be used to track carbon sequestration, oxygen production, soil regeneration, water purification, creation of biodiversity, storm surge protection, rainwater generated, cooling of the planet, food, medicine, building materials, community health & happiness improvements, and all the ecosystems restoration actions that shall take place.
