Status Report #001
Below are some of the items the Genopets team has worked on over the past two weeks. We’re pulling back the curtain to show you, fellow Genovians, what goes into making a game.
Powerup your Genopet — Gen 1 Refined Genotype Crystals are here
We have gone from sketch to finalized crystal assets that shimmer as they spin. These crystals are tied to core elements (wood, fire, earth, metal, and water). If you participated in a giveaway or are eligible for a crystal, check your wallets for the recent airdrop.
Rejoice — Calibration phase has ended
The metadata update is now complete. To make your Genopet special everywhere it’s shown, we went the extra mile. Instead of the typical still image for most NFTs, we added movement to bring your Genopet to life. Check it out on-chain on Solscan or see other listed Genopets on Magic Eden.
Learn about your Digital Spirit Animal — Pet bios and attributes are live
For those with Genesis Genopets, you can now learn more about them by navigating to genesis.genopets.me/my-pet to check out their description and the attributes that make them unique.
A few other highlights:
Note: most items below, unless noted, are not final. Many things we’ll share in Status Reports will include early renderings, prototypes, or explorations so please keep that in mind when sharing thoughts.
Finished code on an epic parallax login experience to immerse you from the very start of the game
Completed initial sketches and emission maps on baby Genopets — so cute 😍

This is just a small sample of what we’ve been up to over the past two weeks. There’s a lot more in store before closed beta, so follow along on Discord and Twitter to stay in the loop. Till next time.
