Vortrius - Announcements

Battlefleets have arrived ⚔️ One board. Two Commanders. Only one takes EVERYTHING Every mission until now was you against the sector. You knew the rules, you knew what to expect. But this is a completely different game. This time, the danger isn't the environment. It's someone like you. Another real Commander, with a real fleet, reading your moves from the other side of the grid. Your strategy against theirs. You deploy your ships before it begins. The rarest ones take up more space, harder to hide, more valuable as targets. One shot per turn at the start. As the rounds go on, more shots unlock. The duel accelerates the longer it runs. 🔴 Red flag means a hit ⚪️ Grey means a miss Create a room or join one that's already open. Set your CARGO, choose your board size, and wait for your rival. The winner takes the full pot. The universe got too small for the two of you. Are you going to defend your fleet, or watch it go down? 👉 https://cryptomines.app/ Stay close, Commanders 🖖

🔔 UPDATE 19/05 — The Bell now belongs to everyone who plays The Bell was built to reward Commanders all of them, not just those who were in the right place at the right time. A fixed window was never going to do that. So we changed how it works, and we changed it with every person who sends a fleet in mind. The new Bell has no schedule, no fixed target. It moves in silence through the corridor, falling on whoever is out there running, no announcements, no pattern to chase. It just finds you in the middle of a run if it finds you at all 🤫 The more activity in the corridor, the more it flows. It's not a reward you wait for. It's something that happens to people who are already out there. This is how it works now. - The Bell rolls on every complete extraction: Classic or Quick, any size, any hour. Finish the voyage alive, extract, and you're in the roll. - Three voices, three results: 1. MINI *(the most common scales to the size of the run you brought home)* 2. JACKPOT *(less common your name goes out on Discord when it lands)* 3. MEGA *(the rarest sound in the corridor the Bell empties the chamber completely)* - Bigger runs, bigger rolls: the Bell respects what you put in. A small expedition earns a small share, and a large one is what can bring home the highest gift the corridor has to give. - Cargo lands the moment the result card opens no claim window, no pending balance. It's in your spendable balance before you move on. - Your fleet comes back exactly as the expedition left it ship, Workers, fuel, all intact. The Bell never takes. It only adds. Play. Extract. Let the Bell find you. *Stay close, Commanders* 🖖

🔔 UPDATE 08/05 — The Bell now belongs to everyone The Bell has always been exciting, but it wasn't fair for everyone and that had to change. We already took a step forward when we moved to two daily rings at 02:00 UTC and 14:00 UTC, but we heard you. So we went further... The pool stays the same, but now everyone can be part of it no matter where you play from or what time you log in. What did we do? - 8 Random Mini-Bells: Instead of a single moment, there are now 8 mini-bells of 5 minutes each, spread throughout the day at completely random times. The Frontier decides when they ring, no fixed schedules, no advantage for anyone it doesn't matter if you're in Asia, Europe or America. - Per run cap reduced from 5,000 to 1,000: So the pool reaches more hands, not just the fastest ones. - Accumulative pool up to 30,000: If the Bell isn't fully spent, it keeps adding up until the cap, nothing will be lost. The Bell was always meant for everyone. Now it truly is. Stay close, Commanders 🖖

🛠 UPDATE 05/05 — More Control Commanders. A new operation has been added, alongside a new feature. Both come directly from your feedback, and both are built around the same idea. More control, fewer nodes, more runs. 🚀 Quick Expeditions — Same Frontier, no waiting A lot of you wanted to run more, faster, without the node-by-node flow slowing things down between attempts. Quick Expeditions are exactly that, same zones, same risk, same rewards as a standard expedition. The only difference is how you get there: choose your fuel and get your result. No nodes, no clicks in between, just the outcome, clean and immediate, ready for the next push. Every zone available, every difficulty available. 🔧 Fleet Dismantling — Your call You can now dismantle a fleet and free up the ships and workers inside it. Want to rebuild, reorganize, or move a worker from one fleet to another? Dismantle the old one and build what you actually need. One condition: the fleet must be at 100% fuel before you dismantle it. Top it off, then take it apart. Stay close, Commanders 🖖

Two weeks ago, the Frontier stopped being a promise 🚀 Over 9,790 expeditions completed, over 3,811,090 cargo extracted. We're not talking about what could happen, but what's already happening: Commanders who risked it, launched, and came back with their hands full. We're barely scratching the surface. What we've seen so far is just the prologue of what's waiting deeper in the sector. The space is vast and there's room for every fleet with the courage to ignite their engines. The question isn't whether there's opportunity. The question is when you're going to be part of this. See you out there? 🖖 👉 https://cryptomines.app/

🛠 UPDATE 24/04 — Pancho's Blessing Commanders. We spent the last weeks watching every expedition. Reading every message. Running the numbers on thousands of runs. You've been clear: the Frontier should feel fair. It should feel like it wants to reward the risk you take, not punish you for taking it. So we tuned it. Every change in this patch tips the scales in your favor, more cargo coming out, less friction going in. 🛡 Pancho's Blessing — Your losses have a limit The big one. A new rule that's part of the Frontier from today onward: In any expedition that doesn't end with fuel fully depleted, you will never lose more than half of what you risked Hit a rough run? A Pancho's Blessing Bonus kicks in and credits your fleet at extraction, right there on the result card, clearly marked, so you see the floor hold every single time. Where it applies: on every run that doesn't end with fuel fully depleted. The harder zones still carry the risk of a complete wipe — that's the trade you accept when you raise the difficulty, and it stays that way. The Blessing kicks in when you reach the exit node Pull out early and you're on the natural result. Push through to the exit and the floor is yours. 📦 Expedition Results — Better returns across every zone We've rebalanced the loot economy across all four zones. The shape of the game is intact, big wins stay rare, jackpots stay jackpots, the variance that makes each run feel different hasn't been touched. What moved is the center of gravity: Every expedition now pays more, on average, than it did before Odrocury, Roq'd Mar, Gagua 07, Sector G. Easy to Degen. Same ships, same skill, same decisions, just more cargo on the way out. You'll feel it in your balance from your very next extract. ⛽️ Refuel — Fuel cost has been reduced We dropped the price of refueling across the board. Topping off between expeditions now costs you less cargo, and over a long session, that difference compounds. Longer sessions. More runs per stack. More of your cargo where it belongs, in your hold, ready for the next push. 🔔 Midnight Bell — Now rings twice 00:00 UTC has always been our signature hour. The bell, the rush, the moment the Frontier opens up. But we know that for a lot of you, that time was a tough ask. You were missing the window, not because you weren't ready, but because the clock wasn't on your side. That changes today. The Midnight Bell now rings at 02:00 UTC and 14:00 UTC two shots at the Frontier, every day, so more Commanders can be there when it counts. Same bell. Same stakes. Just more chances to answer it. ⚙️ Quality of Life - Improvements were made to the Midnight Bell display. - A live viewer counter was added to Warp Drive. - The minimum fuel required for expeditions is now shown when refueling. - Various optimization and visual improvements were made across the board. Stay close, Commanders 🖖

Hey Tamers 💙 First, thank you. For every match, bug report, meme, and game night, you made Valiants: Arena feel alive. We want you to feel welcome here, even in a tough update like this. Over the last months, we've pushed hard to keep Valiants: Arena moving. We rebuilt decks, refined the pitch and spoke with VCs, private investors, angels, ecosystem funds, exchanges, and grant programs. We iterated on demos, milestones, and budgets; we explored partnerships, rev-share options, and even "build-with-us" proposals. Some conversations went deep, a few got close, but in today's Web3 gaming climate, it wasn't enough to safely extend runway. At the same time, developing an original IP at the quality bar we set is costly. Even with a lean team, the core pillars add up: - Art (concepts, characters, environments, animation, UI/UX polish) - Engineering (netcode, backend, builds, tools, QA) - Security (audits, exploit monitoring, anti-cheat/hardening) - Social/Marketing (assets, trailers, community campaigns, UA experiments) We shipped, we iterated, and you showed up, but current player volume doesn't offset ongoing costs. Keeping the game alive in its current form would burn out faster than we can replenish it. So here's where we are: - Valiants: Arena is paused. - $VGN token launch is cancelled under the original plan. - We'll try to keep the servers online as long as we reasonably can, but we can't promise it'll be for long. If they're up, jump in just for fun, that's what games are meant for, right? 😃 - Vortrius is not going away. We still believe in what we're building. We're moving to smaller scopes, tighter loops, and ideas that can grow. We understand that this news may be upsetting to some of you. We feel it too. We gave it our all, and we know many of you did as well. The market is rough right now, especially for Web3 games, but your support has meant the world to us. We'll keep Discord/Telegram open for updates and honest conversations. If you're a partner who believes in this vision or someone with a connection we haven't explored yet, our DMs are open. Thank you for riding with us. 💙 — Vortrius Team
