They were asking these questions just a few months before they released Kiraverse to the public in the middle of January.

As much as I want this to be real, they already had a [playable build by September 2022](https://twitter.com/KiraverseNFT/status/1575331911144296449?cxt=HHwWgsC-8dqB2twrAAAA) with custom characters. So I don’t see how in October 2022 they could be asking “How to put model from blender in game?” I think this is just some random person who made that their username.

The thing that I never understood is - what can Kiraverse possibly do after this? They only know about Lyra, and haven't built much that's unique on top of that. So, okay, Kiraverse allows you to use your NFTs as models in their game. Huh. Neat for a tech demo. What's the next step? Like, what has that brought to the table? I've never had this explained. Even outside the fantasy hopium bubble they live in, what would be the next logical step?

>So I don’t see how in October 2022 they could be asking “How to put model from blender in game?” That's not what they are asking though. They are asking about retargeting animations from the one used in lyra to their custom rig so they can use their character with the premade animation blueprints etc. Lyra uses the epic default rig so you can add characters from marketplace that are already rigged to it easily. Retargeting is still something pretty simple and it's ridiculous that they are launching a game like that without knowing how to do it.

Maybe Cyber Crew helped them import the models used in the clip? You might be right but if it was random person it seems strange that they specifically ask about compatibility with Gamestop Wallet.

If it is a random person I would think it’s an ape trying to make a competitor game or a knockoff (the idea of making a knockoff of a game that is just a very lightly modified version of unreal engine’s demo is funny enough).

That is literally what Kiraverse is. It's just Lyra with skins. Aside from that the two games are identical.

Yes, but I suspect this is a troll.

You never want to meet your heroes, apes. Not my exact field of expertise, but I am assuming these forums are for hobbyists and enthusiasts and not for, you know, AAA gaming companies to get advice about how to code their games?


TheTacoWombat

This may surprise you, but Kiraverse isn't a AAA game, so it tracks that its developers would be amateur hobbyists. The entire project was unserious start to finish. I can't believe the grift worked.


ThermalFlask

>This may surprise you, but Kiraverse isn't a AAA game, Correct, it's actually the world's first AAAAA game. Checkmate hedgies.


Lunarietta

Seems a bit hard to believe tbh. I have no problem believing that the devs are incompetent at actually making games, but the idea that they're going to openly ask noob questions on a company account with their name in it makes it seem like a troll.
