WHAT IS PROTORACE ?
THE dAPP
ProtoRace is made of two components - The dApp and the browser-based Game.
The dApp is responsible for the Web3 aspects of the platform, where you can create races for all types of giveaways, such as tokens, NFTs, and whitelists - all on multiple chains.
The automated smart contract ticket system on our roadmap will further expand the opportunities.
The ticket system will allow you to run races where each participant will buy a ticket with, for example, stablecoins or the project's tokens, and the winners will win a set % of the prize pool. (minus a 10% platform fee).
Platform fee will be used as part of a loyalty reward program among the owners of Ahiru ducks that help strengthen the safety of the ecosystem by staking PROTO tokens.
USE CASES
ProtoRace is the perfect tool for:
- community engagement
- creating fun giveaways
- offering degen races with an entry fee
- gaining repeated exposure without costing you a ton of money!
Your community can also participate in racing events with other projects and lounges, have fun, and gain new eyes on your project!
The sky is the limit!
THE GAME
The game is a browser-based Web3 solution built on WebGL and integrated with the ProtoRace dApp.
Play it directly from the browser on a PC, MAC, IOS, or ANDROID!
The game connects to the player’s NFT using a highly secure cryptographic login - no vulnerable email or password is needed!
The game and load times have been optimized for poor internet connections. Depending on the users’ internet access, the first time requires about 30 seconds extra to load.
HOW TO PLAY?
Play ProtoRace directly from your desktop browser with these steps.
If you have already installed a wallet and own an Ahiru or Soulless duck, skip to step 3.

- Win a Soulless racing-only Duck from one of our partners or mint one with PROTO tokens once the token launches!
3. Visit race.pvr.ai, and connect your MetaMask via the "Connect Wallet" button. Be sure the MetaMask network is set to the same chain your duck is on.
4. Choose a race where you see the "Subscribe" button. Click on "Subscribe," select in the drop-down menu the NFT you wish to use to race, and click "LDG!!". You will then see a pop-up confirming that you subscribed successfully.
5. After the subscription timer ends and the game lobby opens, join the race by clicking the yellow "Join race" button in the dApp that will be available if you subscribed in time. The game will automatically start loading and safely connect your NFT to the game.
6. Type in your nickname (only English letters and numbers, no spaces, and a max of 12 chars). You can change your nickname for each race.
7. Click the large "Join Race" button.
8. If you subscribed to multiple races in the dApp, go to the game lobby, find the active race you want to enter and click on the name.
9. Show the host that you are ready to race by clicking the "Ready?" button. Your status will then change from NOT READY to READY!
10. Any tokens, NFTs, or WLs you win will be sent to you by the host!

- Add a listing banner, profile image, race title, and description. Optionally, add up to three race sponsors. Players will see the sponsor’s advertisement trailing behind the animated in-game airplane.
- Set a date and time for when the race lobby will open. Be sure to give your participants enough time to subscribe to your event before the race lobby opens because ONLY subscribed participants can enter the lobby to join the race. Don't worry about time zones; the system automatically provides information to the user in their local time!
- Select how long the game race lobby will remain open for subscribers to join the race. Note that the host must start the race BEFORE the lobby closes. If you don’t, the race status will display "Host No Show."
- Set the duration for the main race. It can be set to anything from 15 seconds for a quick degen race up to a full 5 minutes slow-mo race.
Note that if there are more than 16 participants, a fun pre-elimination round is automatically triggered before the main race. The pre-round randomly zaps extra ducks until only 16 finalists remain for the main race.
- Click the yellow "Next" button. If it's not yellow, go back and add any missing information.
- In the drop-down menu, select the blockchain where prizes will be sent (ETH, Polygon, BSC, or POM).

- Winners - Select if there are prizes for 1st place, 2nd, and 3rd place. You can also create races without prizes just for fun!

- Click "Publish" to create the race, or select "Save" to publish later.
- After publishing the racing event, copy the listing URL, share it with your community on social media, and tell them to start subscribing!
As the host, you must also subscribe to the race, or you won't be able to access the game lobby after it opens to start the race. (This requirement will be removed in a future release.)
- After the subscription timer ends and the game lobby opens, join the race by clicking the yellow "Join race" button in the dApp.
- Type in your nickname in the game (only English letters and numbers, no spaces, and a max of 12 chars). You can change your nickname for each race.

Then return to the main game menu, click "Host Race," select the race, and start the race when you wish - but remember at least two participants need to be ready before you can start the race.
