Building The Walking Dead Lands
"The response from the fanbase has been unbelievable," said Orange Comet CEO Dave Broome in an email exchange that nft has with him right now. "It was our hope that we could appeal to NFT collectors who weren't fans of the show by doing the best quality work in the space while at the same time appealing to The Walking Dead fans who never purchased NFTs but were excited about what they were seeing from us."
Orange Comet is using these NFT drops to build the metaverse from the show, The Walking Dead Lands which is which is a "post-apocalyptic open-world build-and-earn experience based on The Walking Dead universe." Users can buy land, construct buildings, as well as earn rewards for doing this.
"The creative backstory for the collection does reference the fact that these walkers have been captured for research and experimentation," explained Orange Comet's Chief Creative Officer and CoFounder Dante Ferrarini in an email exchange with nft right now. "So, it is likely that some interesting alterations will become visible in the later stages."
In line with its ambitious goals the company plans to announce Five Walking Dead related NFT drops each year. One drop in the pipeline which the firm has provided very little information on to date has been the Avatars collection.
Orange Comet said it modeled and painted these characters in a meticulous manner to create an electronic version of the cast members.

"Along with walkers, human avatars will play a strong role in The Walking Dead Lands," Ferrarini stated. "We will be doing multiple human avatar drops, the first will be later this year, [which is] a set of detailed 3D recreations of some of the most notable cast members. Next year, we plan on releasing avatars that collectors can customize at time of mint. In all cases, these characters will convert to The Walking Dead Lands metaverse assets."
The primary goal of The Walking Dead Lands metaverse is in rebuilding the planet following the zombie the apocalypse. The players will be able to construct defenses and structures using tools and vehicles to explore different biomes as well as scavenge items and rare resources.
They'll also be capable of "mint their own faction," the only option available to landowners who have an "fully realized" plot of land that produces surplus resources. They can even offer the assets of their "Faction NFT", in addition to the tools and character assets associated with it.
