Bye bye

2024

TL;DR
> This year was fantastic for Crypto Shots development. Our game received several big updates, including new maps like Mars and Warehouse, more weapons and skins, new game modes, and improved performance. We also added cool features such as shields, medkits, and jump pads to enhance the gameplay. Additionally, we added Metamask and Bitcoin LN support and improved both PvP and PvE experience for all players.
We introduced daily PvP tournaments and three exciting minigames (karts, poker, and chess with automated HIVE tips).
> We upgraded our reward system for the PvP version of the game (still in alpha) and worked on many more NFTs that will launch in 2025.
> Our community grew strong as we partnered with new sponsors, were nominated for the Blockchain Gaming Awards 2024, and held awesome daily tournaments and giveaways. Crypto Shots was proud to represent Hive at the NFTopia and Web3 Dubai conferences.
Thank you to our amazing players and community for making 2024 a great year! We’re excited to bring you even more fun and updates in 2025 😎
