Coming just after a couple of weeks, the Taurion team has announced the launch of its tech demo. This release, according to the team, is a pre-alpha build, meaning that more mechanics will be added in the coming months.

Some of the attributes of this demo include the following:

• Complex and fully decentralised MMO
• Movement inside a decentralised world
• Basic combat (with health points and shield regeneration)
• Prospecting
• Chat system utilizing XID (Xaya ID)

In addition to these mechanics, the team has announced that this same pre-alpha demo build will be going open-source. The aim of doing so is to further ensure members of the eco-system of its transparent nature.

This rings true with Taurion’s inner workings, but also for XAYA‘s framework as a decentralized solution.

But just as is the case with other open-source projects, the Taurion team wants to foster community innovations it seems.

“By opening the code we welcome people to:

• Contribute to the project
• Fork the project and make their own game (develop along with us as we add more features)
• Adjust the gameplay so it’s more suited to their own project
• Make a Fantasy or Medieval or Modern-day setting/version
• Whatever they wish
• Create their own front ends”
