The Founders Wave will introduce several game updates, including modifications to the Leaderboard, the unlocking of new powers, additional action sequences, new abilities, and the introduction of a new enemy. The event will also feature $MAGIC rewards and lootboxes containing talismans that contribute toward the play-to-airdrop token allocation.
Each Variance run is recorded, validated, and eventually stored on chain to enable players to receive rewards through airdropped tokens and token allocations through gameplay.
Variance is currently playable on desktop browsers and will soon launch on platforms such as Epic Games, Steam, and Treasure Launcher, with mobile support coming later.

About Variance
Variance is an action roguelite game developed by Realm Studios in collaboration with Big Beam Games. It uses a community-based lore system and draws inspiration from titles like Hades and Hollow Knight. Players explore levels that change with each run, utilize special attacks, and follow the evolving narrative of the main character.
The gameplay blends roguelite progression with metroidvania exploration, as players unlock new skills and face enemies with distinct attack patterns. The difficulty scales based on performance, ensuring a balanced challenge. The game also features an in-game economy that uses the $ANIMA token as its primary currency, allowing players to earn and spend tokens within its ecosystem.
