# Roadmap

## “Catopia” Development Roadmap：

#### Phase 1: Project Initiation (2022Q4)

Officially launch the project, complete the outline design of gameplay, and finalize the core team members.

#### Phase 2: Closed Beta

Catopia will make its initial debut, allowing players to experience simple interactions with virtual pets. All players can download and register to start playing the game for free.

#### Phase 3: Public Beta

After entering the public testing phase, all in-game NFT assets will be allowed to be traded or staked on the blockchain. In addition to the prototype cats, higher-quality NFT cats such as A-I model cats, A-II model cats, A-III model cats, and A-X model cats will be introduced to players. We will also unveil the economic model of Catopia.

#### Phase 4: Official Release

In the official release, we will introduce the first pet-focused artificial intelligence application capability called CatGPT, using Artificial Intelligence General Cognition (AIGC) to give pets intelligence and emotions. Through machine algorithms and deep learning, pets will be able to understand player commands, express their own desires, and provide emotional feedback. We will also introduce an innovative AI adventure + AI community gameplay loop.

#### Phase 5: "Catopia" - Future

Catopia will launch an open virtual smart city that opens up gameplay/content production modules and open-source production processes for global developers, content creators, and ordinary players. Anyone can create various scenes and experiences within the city ecosystem of Catopia. Developers can create more game scenes or create completely new AIGC pet games based on the CatGPT SDK. Additionally, COA will become the core circulating currency across games, platforms, and gameplay modes.
