Introduction to Eternals Pew Pew
Eternals Pew Pew is a browser-based, free-to-play 2D shooter game that immerses players in the defense of the world of Eternia. Players control the Holy Cat, navigating an aircraft to dodge and destroy waves of enemies within time and ammo constraints. The game features a variety of randomized combat scenarios which blend casual fun with challenging skill-based objectives. Players can choose from several difficulty levels, strive to achieve additional objectives, and climb weekly leaderboards to earn in-game rewards.
Gameplay and Features
Available on PC via web browsers, Eternals Pew Pew can be accessed through its official website with options for logging in via email, Google, Apple, Facebook, or through web3 wallets like Coin98 Wallet and Ramper Wallet. The game operates on the Viction network, known for supporting zero-gas transactions which enhance the accessibility of web3 features.
Following an alpha playtest in August, the developers introduced the game into an open beta phase, allowing free competition in time-limited events for NFT rewards. The current Open Beta Cycle 2, which commenced on October 22 and will conclude on November 4, continues this setup without substantial new gameplay changes but includes previous introductions like the Crafting Factory. This factory enables players to create Chests using battle-earned components. Players also benefit from an Item Marketplace for trading items and extended seasonal events.
Extended and Enhanced Competitive Play
The Beta Cycle 2 allows players more time to engage with the game due to an extended two-week leaderboard cycle. This provides a flexible schedule for participants aiming to improve their ranks on both the Shooting and Crafting leaderboards.
Special rewards are available for NFT holders, including the Mythical Proto Angelic Rifle which aids in boosting leaderboard performance. The game continues to incentivize competitive play through its play-to-earn model, rewarding players with Ranking Points and NFT Chests containing valuable crafting materials.
Strategic B3 Partnership Benefits
The new partnership with the B3 network marks a significant enhancement in game performance due to faster transactions and reduced network costs. Eternals Pew Pew is now available on the B3 platform at sites like basement.fun and play.b3.fun, maintaining all existing features and gameplay without restrictions.
To celebrate the collaboration, the development team has introduced an exclusive partnership reward pack for players using the B3 platform. This pack comprises a unique B3-themed ship skin, a Rare Machine Gun, and an Energy Pack, providing newcomers a rewarding start.
