Cutting-edge EVM Layer 1 blockchain Somnia has announced the launch of Somnia Playground, an innovative application that is designed to simplify the creation and hosting of metaverse experiences.
By taking advantage of advanced interoperability protocols, Somnia plans to unify metaverses, gaming, NFTs, and social platforms to create a seamless and fully on-chain virtual society.
A New Era for Metaverse Builders
The beta version of Somnia Playground offers creators a platform to build metaverse worlds, invite friends, and showcase their NFTs. This "sandbox" environment allows users to quickly test their ideas without the need for server infrastructure, making it very easy for them to refine their metaverse experiences before launching them.
Users can also invite friends by using referral codes, participate in new incentive quests, and construct virtual worlds powered by their chosen digital currencies or assets.
Cutting-Edge Tools
Somnia CEO Paul Thomas is very excited about the launch, and stated that “our goal is to empower creators by providing the tools they need to bring their metaverse visions to life."
The platform's current features are just the beginning, as future updates are planned to include tools for publishing MML objects, increasing space capacity, and adding voice chat for more immersive social interactions. Additionally, with the upcoming launch of the Somnia mainnet, creations will become tradable through web3 marketplaces.
