破译谜团：Charles Hoskinson 的区块链游戏企业内部

In a surprise announcement that rippled through the cryptosphere last week, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson unveiled the imminent release of his first game, Voyager: Ascension, on the Gala blockchain gaming platform. While Hoskinson's involvement in the project initially raised questions, recent revelations have shed light on his multifaceted role in the venture.

上周，卡尔达诺创始人查尔斯·霍斯金森 (Charles Hoskinson) 出人意料地宣布，他的第一款游戏 Voyager: Ascension 即将在 Gala 区块链游戏平台上发布，这一消息在加密领域引起了轩然大波。虽然霍斯金森对该项目的参与最初引起了质疑，但最近的披露揭示了他在该合资企业中的多方面角色。

Voyager: Ascension emerged from the creative crucible of RFLXT, a portfolio company of Input Output Global (IOG), the entity co-founded and led by Hoskinson as its CEO. While Hoskinson does not hold an official position within RFLXT itself, his cryptic tweet, "I have six companies," hinted at his close involvement in the project.

Voyager: Ascension 诞生于 RFLXT 的创意考验中，RFXT 是 Input Output Global (IOG) 的投资组合公司，该实体由 Hoskinson 共同创立并担任首席执行官。虽然霍斯金森在 RFLXT 内部并未担任正式职位，但他的神秘推文“我有六家公司”暗示了他密切参与了该项目。

RFLXT's mission, as articulated by a company spokesperson, revolves around redefining entertainment through the fusion of innovative technologies. The platform aims to provide developers and creators an environment conducive to unprecedented innovation, empowering them to seamlessly integrate blockchain elements into their creations.

正如公司发言人所阐述的那样，RFFLXT 的使命是通过融合创新技术重新定义娱乐。该平台旨在为开发者和创作者提供一个有利于前所未有的创新的环境，使他们能够将区块链元素无缝集成到他们的创作中。

A key plank in RFLXT's strategy involves collaborating with developers of classic PC titles to facilitate their transition into the revolutionary realm of Web3. Such was the genesis of Voyager: Ascension, which is a reimagined version of Overload, a 2018 game developed by some of the minds behind the legendary shooter Descent.

RFLXT 战略的一个关键部分是与经典 PC 游戏的开发商合作，以促进他们过渡到 Web3 的革命性领域。这就是《Voyager: Ascension》的起源，它是《Overload》的重新构想版本，《Overload》是一款 2018 年的游戏，由传奇射击游戏《Descent》的一些幕后开发者开发。

RFLXT partnered with the original developers to license the game and introduce features tailored to the Web3 audience. Overload, currently available on Steam, boasts a near-perfect score with glowing reviews, testament to its enduring quality. Voyager: Ascension offers a strikingly similar gameplay experience, featuring fast-paced space combat reminiscent of sci-fi classics like Quake.

RFLXT 与原始开发者合作，获得游戏许可并推出针对 Web3 受众量身定制的功能。 《Overload》目前已在 Steam 上发售，获得近乎完美的评分和好评，证明了其经久不衰的品质。 《航海者：升天》提供了惊人相似的游戏体验，其快节奏的太空战斗让人想起《雷神之锤》等科幻经典游戏。

However, Voyager: Ascension distinguishes itself by launching exclusively on Gala Games as a free-to-play title, with the option of purchasing a "very low-priced token season pass."

然而，《Voyager: Ascension》的独特之处在于，它是一款在 Gala Games 上独家推出的免费游戏，并且可以选择购买“非常低价的代币季票”。

The choice of GalaChain over Cardano for the game's release has been a subject of some intrigue. RFLXT emphasized its commitment to fostering the Cardano gaming ecosystem, but also underscored the importance of exploring diverse blockchain platforms to contribute to the collective growth of the industry.

选择 GalaChain 而不是 Cardano 来发行游戏一直是一些有趣的话题。 RFLXT 强调了其对培育卡尔达诺游戏生态系统的承诺，但也强调了探索多样化区块链平台以促进行业集体增长的重要性。

Interoperability remains a cornerstone of RFLXT's vision, hence its partnership with Gala, whose mission, according to the company, "aligns closely" with its own. Nonetheless, RFLXT confirmed ongoing collaborations with Cardano game developers for future releases on its platform.

互操作性仍然是 RFLXT 愿景的基石，因此它与 Gala 建立了合作伙伴关系，据该公司称，Gala 的使命与自己的使命“紧密结合”。尽管如此，RFLXT 仍确认与 Cardano 游戏开发商持续合作，以便未来在其平台上发布版本。

One of the most intriguing features on the RFLXT horizon is Digital Doubles, an AI-driven technology designed to seamlessly integrate influencers and streamers into games. Depending on the title, Digital Doubles can engage with players in various ways, from unlocking exclusive features to becoming playable characters.

RFLXT 领域最有趣的功能之一是 Digital Doubles，这是一种人工智能驱动的技术，旨在将影响者和主播无缝集成到游戏中。根据游戏的不同，数字替身可以通过多种方式与玩家互动，从解锁专属功能到成为可玩角色。

While Voyager: Ascension will not feature Digital Doubles, RFLXT plans to introduce it with the launch of its full platform "later this summer" through its first platform-exclusive title, Chronoshot. The company hinted at further revelations at the upcoming Rare Evo conference in Las Vegas in August.

虽然 Voyager: Ascension 不会推出 Digital Doubles，但 RFLXT 计划在“今年夏天晚些时候”推出其全平台，通过其首款平台独占游戏 Chronoshot 来推出该功能。该公司暗示将在 8 月份即将于拉斯维加斯举行的 Rare Evo 会议上透露更多信息。
