About Chimaera

The Chimaera platform achieves this through the democratisation of game development and deployment, allowing developers to bring their vision to life quickly with significantly reduced costs. It will provide a wealth of tools and a state-of-the-art infrastructure for game developers to build their own blockchain-based games. Furthermore, developers can fully leverage the Chimaera technology to issue their own game currency that can be traded for ‘CHI’ (the reserve currency and “fuel” in the Chimaera ecosystem) or other Chimaera game coins and assets. 

Additionally to the benefit of gamers, developers can create fully decentralised, autonomous games where players can expect 100% uptime and have provably fair gameplay with true ownership of their in-game items.

Until now scaling has been a major difficulty for blockchains and particularly for massive game worlds and their virtual asset inventories. The Chimaera team has overcome this with world leading breakthroughs in Trustless Off-chain Scaling for games (Game Channels) and Ephemeral Timestamps and will continue to invest strongly in this important and novel field.

The assembled Chimaera team is comprised of the original creators of blockchain gaming, experienced developers, and blockchain and business experts. So whilst this is a new frontier for cryptocurrency and gaming, the assembled team has the experience, insight, and initial designs available to readily solve the challenges ahead. This will usher in a new era of gamechanging blockchain technology and a whole new gaming ecosystem.

Features

The Chimaera landscape consists of multiple parts. The Chimaera blockchain acts as a decentralised gaming backend that is scalable, secure and reliable. The Chimaera platform is a continuously evolving environment facilitating developers with the tools they need to get their concept to market in less time with reduced cost.

Gamers can benefit from massive immersive game worlds with thriving economies, fair gameplay, fair acquisition and true ownership of in-game assets and items, and the ability to trade in a trustless fashion.

Technical Info

Chimaera Interviews

Rudy Koch
As a team member, сan you tell us about your role in the ICO project? What do you think about idea?
The folks that are going to move blockchain gaming forward are the platform developers. They are the ones who are going to be building the tools that game developers will need to put out rich game experiences.

As a game developer for 10 years, I've relied heavily on robust platforms and ecosystems to not only support the games I've worked on, but to also solve important problems so we can focus on creating great games. The Chimaera team is doing exactly that.

Furthermore, blockchain technology is clearly bringing some transformative paradigms to gaming, and game developers alone aren't going to be able to fully realize the potential. We need experts to inspire us with the possibilities. From what I've seen, the Chimaera team's experience in the blockchain space is unparalleled, and they are using that expertise to define new paradigms and empower game developers with the possibilities of what blockchain tech can do.
Andrew Colosimo
As a team member, сan you tell us about your role in the ICO project? What do you think about idea?
As the founder of the Chimaera project I'm really excited to be working with such a very dedicated team and I look forward to bringing blockchain gaming to the masses.
Konstantin Gorskov
As a team member, сan you tell us about your role in the project? What do you think about idea? Thank you!)
As a lead game developer I'm excited to be collaborating with this incredible team to create the Chimaera blockchain core and ecosystem. It will manage increasingly complex and appealing game worlds, as well as secure and simplify the ownership, sharing, and trade of virtual assets.

My personal goal in the company is to make sure, that all the devs will be able to transition their games into the new blockchain paradigma smoothly by having all the tools and knowledge they need. I will be also looking closely on the first game templates, to make sure they come up performant and fun.

As a team member, сan you tell us about your role in the ICO project? What do you think about idea?
Chimaera is going to be an amazing blockchain game development and gaming platform with an already amazing team. Can't wait to show the world what true blockchain gaming will do for gamers.

Ayalies Schoonhoven
As a team member, сan you tell us about your role in the ICO project? What do you think about idea?
"Don’t find customers for your product. Find products for your customers” – Seth Godin.
To me this is what we do with Chimaera. We are working on something big, something that can – and hopefully will - be very meaningful to many people all over the world. Because gaming as it is faces many constrictions and it’s opportunity for growth is becoming significantly smaller. By using blockchain technology and it’s advantages I truly believe we can revolutionize gaming as we know it. As you might be able to tell, I’m very proud to be a part of this team and to be given the chance to use my marketer skills to their fullest to actually unchain that revolution.
Kyle Serbov
As a team member, сan you tell us about your role in the ICO project? What do you think about idea?
My role is to moderate the Chimaera community, and answer any questions people my have about Chimaera. You can find me in the Chimaera telegram channel.

Mike Handverger
As a team member, сan you tell us about your role in the ICO project? What do you think about idea?
Chimaera is such a great idea and will bring forth some new opportunities for games! I run Tricky Fast Studios, and along with building one of the first games using the platform, we're also helping to make it easier for traditional game developers to work with the platform along with doing outreach.

Brilliant team. Brilliant idea. Great history with huntercoin. The best gaming ICO I have seen.
Jonathan Galea
As a team member, сan you tell us about your role in the ICO project? What do you think about idea?
I am the legal adviser to the Chimaera project, which is being launched from Malta. In all honesty, the Chimaera project is one of the most accomplished blockchain projects from a technical perspective, with various breakthroughs that will allow for a seamless decentralised gaming experience, serving as the best platform for developers to host their creations.
Prof. Nick Colosimo
As a team member, сan you tell us about your role in the ICO project? What do you think about idea?
I provide general business advice with an orientation towards innovation. I specialise in disruptive technologies and blockchain is one of them. Applied to online gaming I am certain that this is as significant a breakthrough as the deployment of high speed Internet. Truly transformative for developers and gamers.
Dr. Yen Nguyen
As a team member, сan you tell us about your role in the ICO project? What do you think about idea?
I'm the finance adviser for this project, been with CHIMAERA for more than 8 months. I have full trust in the team and the prospect of the project.
