FACILITATING GENERATION OF PLAYER TOKEN NFTS BASED ON GAME CHARACTER ATTRIBUTES AND METHODS FOR USE THEREWITH
A non-fungible token (NFT) platform operates by: receiving character attribute selection data to be associated with a game character that indicates a subset of a set of character attributes of a character attribute database; generating, based on the character attribute selection data, display data associated with the game character; generating game character data that includes the display data and performance data to be associated with actions of the game character in a game and a persona associated with the game character; facilitating generation of a player token NFT associated with the game character, wherein the player token NFT is stored on a blockchain via a decentralized computer system; facilitating play of the game utilizing the game character; 10 receiving update data associated with the game character responsive to the play of the game utilizing the game character; and updating the player token NFT based on the update data.
1 . A method for use with a non-fungible token (NFT) platform that includes a processor and a memory, the method comprising:
receiving, at the processor, character attribute selection data to be associated with a game character, wherein the character attribute selection data indicates a subset of a set of character attributes of a character attribute database;
generating, via the processor and based on the character attribute selection data, display data associated with the game character;
generating game character data associated with the game character that includes the display data and that further includes performance data to be associated with actions of the game character in a game and a persona associated with the game character in the game;
facilitating, based on the game character data, generation of a player token NFT associated with the game character, wherein the player token NFT is stored on a blockchain via a decentralized computer system;
facilitating, based on the game character data, play of the game utilizing the game character;
receiving update data associated with the game character responsive to the play of the game utilizing the game character; and
updating the player token NFT based on the update data associated with the game character.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the subset of character attributes of the character attribute database include two or more of: at least one garment selection, at least one garment color, a hair style, a hair color, a facial hair style, a facial hair color, a body style, at least one facial style, a shoe style, a shoe color, a jewelry selection, or an eye-ware selection.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the update data includes updated performance data that includes one or more character performance metrics.
4 . The method of claim 3 , wherein the one or more character performance metrics include at least one of: a new character ability, a character enhancement, a character achievement, character statistics, a character experience, a level-up, a level-downs, a game score, of a character status.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein updating the player token NFT includes generating a derivative NFT based on the player token NFT.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein updating the player token NFT includes generating a new player token NFT in addition to the player token NFT.
7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein generating the game character data is further based on game accessory data associated with a game accessory associated with the game character; and
wherein the display data associated with the game character also includes the game accessory.
8 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving a start game request at a game application corresponding to the game;
enabling, via the game application, the play of the game associated with the game application when the player token NFT is validated; and
preventing, via the game application, the play of the game when the player token NFT is not validated.
9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the update data expends the player token NFT based on game play data that indicates loss of the game.
10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the update data includes updates to one or more of the subset of character attributes.
11 . A system comprises:
a network interface configured to communicate via a network;
a processor;
a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium that stores operational instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations that include:
receiving, at the processor, character attribute selection data to be associated with a game character, wherein the character attribute selection data indicates a subset of a set of character attributes of a character attribute database;
generating, via the processor and based on the character attribute selection data, display data associated with the game character;
generating game character data associated with the game character that includes the display data and that further includes performance data to be associated with actions of the game character in a game and a persona associated with the game character in the game;
facilitating, based on the game character data, generation of a player token NFT associated with the game character, wherein the player token NFT is stored on a blockchain via a decentralized computer system;
facilitating, based on the game character data, play of the game utilizing the game character;
receiving update data associated with the game character responsive to the play of the game utilizing the game character; and
updating the player token NFT based on the update data associated with the game character.
12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the subset of character attributes of the character attribute database include two or more of: at least one garment selection, at least one garment color, a hair style, a hair color, a facial hair style, a facial hair color, a body style, at least one facial style, a shoe style, a shoe color, a jewelry selection, or an eye-ware selection.
13 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the update data includes updated performance data that includes one or more character performance metrics.
14 . The system of claim 13 , wherein the one or more character performance metrics include at least one of: a new character ability, a character enhancement, a character achievement, character statistics, a character experience, a level-up, a level-downs, a game score, of a character status.
15 . The system of claim 11 , wherein updating the player token NFT includes generating a derivative NFT based on the player token NFT.
16 . The system of claim 11 , wherein updating the player token NFT includes generating a new player token NFT in addition to the player token NFT.
17 . The system of claim 11 , wherein generating the game character data is further based on game accessory data associated with a game accessory associated with the game character; and
wherein the display data associated with the game character also includes the game accessory.
18 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the operations further include:
receiving a start game request at a game application corresponding to the game;
enabling, via the game application, the play of the game associated with the game application when the player token NFT is validated; and
preventing, via the game application, the play of the game when the player token NFT is not validated.
19 . The system of claim 18 , wherein the update data expends the player token NFT based on game play data that indicates loss of the game.
20 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the update data includes updates to one or more of the subset of character attributes.
