On this episode I talk with Flook from Knights of the Ether.
Knights of the Ether (KOTE) is coming off of Mydsummer Madness – a very successful launch event for their deck builder game Blightfell.
Flook takes us through the journey that began with a generative NFT collection on Mainnet, evolved to include a DeFi staking game on Arbitrum (thanks in part to the smol brains), and most recently, spawned the deck builder game, Blightfell.
This story includes important lessons for founders about hiring from your community (a common theme on this show lately), testing ideas with your community without giving away too much, and staying motivated as a web3 builder through the ups and downs (especially while crypto Twitter chases and glorifies obvious scams and pump and dumps).
Most importantly, it’s a story about following your muse and stepping through the doors that open for you as a founder. You never know where you might end up!
