🛠️ Irys Realms Dev Update 9
Early Access & New Features Live!
We’ve hit a huge milestone this week... Irys Realms is now built on its own domain!
It’s password protected for now, but the full game is running directly in browser (✧ᴗ✧)
🎬 Splash Screen
The new splash screen has been implemented... massive shoutout to
@kettei_cryp for the video and for letting me bring it into Irys Realms.
It sets the tone perfectly when you load in. Pure magic and an immediate focus on community collaboration.
🧍♂️ Ready Player Me Integration
Full avatar customization has been implemented!
You can import your existing avatar or build a new one from scratch - just paste the URL into the game and go.
I’m also working on linking your avatar to your wallet profile, so it saves automatically every time you log in.
🤖 New NPCs
I've added some familiar faces to Irys Realms, and many more will be coming!
Big thanks to
@erenyeager_szn for creating such amazing custom profile pictures and for allowing them converted into 3D models.
🎮 First Game is Playable!
Introducing: Irys Datablock Dropper
A fast-paced mini-game where your job is to sort valid vs invalid data as the pace keeps accelerating.
✧ Scores will be stored on-chain via Irys
✧ Movement and UI fixes are in progress
✧ Game metadata will be uploaded to Irys
This is just V1. More upgrades and gameplay depth coming soon.
🌳 Map & World Updates
New landmarks and objects added!
Better layout and world design with the addition of a London phone booth that teleports you into Irys Draw 😂
🛠️ Next Steps
✧ Fix mouse look + add mobile touch controls 👀
✧ Improve lighting and shadows
✧ Expand the game mechanics and Irys vibe
✧ Add player profiles linked to wallet activity
✧ Begin multiplayer integration (finally)
🔓 Early Access
I’m giving away 20 access spots to Irys Realms before the full public beta.
Want to explore the world for yourself? Engage with this post and I will DM some people with the password.
This project means a lot to me and it’s built for you.
Thanks for all the love and support, and for keeping the Irys community one of the most creative spaces in Web3.
Let’s keep building together.
Stay Hirys (✧ᴗ✧)
