Holo everyone! Now that the full team is back and working on the project we wanted to kick things off again with a new creature reveal.
We'd also like people to understand the amount of time and effort it takes to finalize these creatures as we're building something to last with Holozing which may be scarce in the #web3 space these days. From conception to revisions and finally to our in-house artists polishing the creatures to perfection it may take anywhere from a week to a month. The good thing is that the steps are split between many meaning that while we're waiting for a new creature to be drawn and colored we are thinking of new creatures that'll fit our project while other artists may be busy polishing previously created creatures. The step that takes the longest currently is turning these creatures into 3d which requires the original artist to also provide different angles of the creature in idle stance compared to the version we reveal here today which is usually its "pose".
The great thing about polishing these properly is that we can later on use them for different things as well such as for instance physical collection cards way down the line, where we'll also need help from the amazing artists on hive who've provided amazing background images. But more on that later!
Today we're presenting you with our first bug-type and poison-type creature and evolution.
This one is called Larvie!
Larvie will be a little tanky and attempt to slow enemies down with its moves to give it a chance to attack first as the battle goes on. With each attack, it will also be able to poison enemy creatures which will then significantly boost its damage output together with its regular attacks while it attempts to increase its defense and dodge chance.
Larvie will later on evolve into Noxic!
Noxic looks quite intimidating which may have an effect on enemy creature's status, it'll also be able to learn more poison-type moves and attempt to control the battle by prolonging it and leaving enemies slowed, poisoned, and potentially even overwhelmed.
While Noxic becomes faster in its evolved form it'll be less tanky meaning it won't have as high defense and be able to dodge attacks as easily as Larvie.
We hope you like these two new capturable creatures that are entering our roster.
With this post we also wanted to mention a few upcoming updates with the project.
We have recently sent out our first soul-bound NFT achievements to certain healers, although it doesn't reflect on the website yet and we won't be revealing what they are in this post, it was quite a milestone to generate our first non-test NFT's. We will announce what they entail shortly!
We also wanted to tackle one thing regarding funding of the project, while it's important to reward Liquidity Providers so there's volume ready for anyone wanting in or out of the project without affecting the price too much, it is important that we align a better return for those who are helping fund the project. The main way that happens currently is through Hive Power delegation which falls short in APR compared to LP.
The team has been discussing and some have been suggesting for quite a while to increase delegation and staking rewards to match liquidity provider rewards. At the same time we will also be slow-rolling out Collection rewards starting with achievements but later on as the game hits beta to adjust them based on player activity and starter sale purchases.
That's all the info we wanted to share for today but we'll be back posting more regularly shortly and keep you up to date on upcoming changes discussed above and when they'll get into effect.
A big thank you to the amazing Hive community for staying active and dedicated to our project even at times of uncertainty and radio-silence. We hope to make it up to you by having a playable beta ready soon where you can try capturing creatures and battling against other healers! Thank you!

I love this new set of creatures. Larvie looks innocent while Noxic is very serious.
It is so beautiful! and it brings me so much nostalgia because it reminds me of Butterfree from Ash
Noxic looks imposing, a small, flying, venomous beast. I like it
Nice to hear from you guys again. The new creatures look great, although from a visual perspective, it is hard to imagine why Larvie is able to dodge better than Noxic, even though Noxic is faster. Looking forward to more updates.
In our game defense also gives you dodge chance aside from blocking incoming damage.
I see, that makes it an important stat then. Thanks
Now that's a proper evolution!
Larvie looks very tender to me, I love it, I'll keep an eye out for future updates. Regards 😉
As expected the design looks awesome 😎😎😎 as always. So glad that the team is back at it hehe.
Hope we can see regular updates in the future like before 🤩🤩🤩.
Go team Holozing 🎉🎉🎉!
cute,beauty and the beast⚡
They both look special. Larvie looks like a baby Noxic looks like a typical adult funny creature. Always butterfly are very a beautiful insect but here it look protective. Nice creation. :)
We've been long waiting for an update from this very anticipated web3 game. Glad it came through.
Cool that the HP delegation and ZING staking APR would improve, it will help draw more funds for the project.
Glad that the team is back, healthy, and hearty.

#Holozing #zingtoken #zing Thank you so much for introducing this wonderful creature to us. Also, thank you again for letting me know about this Larvie animal's passive energy. Also, it is very pleasant to get acquainted with this wonderful extinct animal with a new name. The creature has the experience to easily dodge other creatures and has the ability to slow down enemies. I am very happy and inspired to know about this creature. Noxious New Terrible The venom of this creature is far greater than that of the larvae. Thank you very much for introducing these two rare animals.
best regards @mdakash62

I love Noxic so much, dope characters
SHHH! No don't touch liquidity rewards!
we didn't actually, we just added 6 extra months of LP rewards for the same amount.
Appreciate it as a greater than whole number liquidity rewards provider ;) I Kan Math and Can't wait for the release!
The gema is still not playable, right? Not even an unofficial alfa?
FYI. close to private alpha testing, the game itself is playable and works, but only team members have access atm while we implement some last healing abilities and creature moves.
Thanks :)
No, but we're close to that one!
wow finally. so no sale this year?
Sale is 90% there, we just didn't wanna start off with it yet until we get some other balls rolling so people can see the actual game before they throw money at it.
sounds great. can't wait. we need more eyes on this . get some twitter action going and hopefully make a way to login with hive. do some x spaces. will that be possible so we can get as many users as possible? recently something ive enjoyed is the beacon. u can look into it and see what can be implemented from there.

What you are building in holozing is second to none
I have read somewhere in your website that you are not going to reveal the evolutionary paths of each Holo's. I hope this is not the final evolution line of this monster and the other monsters you are going to introduce in the near future. I was also hoping that there is an evolutionary tree for all of your monsters so that players will have many options and wont be stuck with low tier monsters.
