We are thrilled to announce an exciting AirDrop of NFTs exclusively for our loyal holders. This initiative is designed to both thank you for your continuous support and to strengthen our community. We took a long hard look at ways to open up the initial mint window and felt it appropriate to gift the holders who've shown nothing but support and appreciation all this time with a nice gift directly into their Polygon wallet. The AirDrop has already started and will likely be hitting your CHET pass wallets over the next 24hrs or so. Keep and eye our for the below holding graphic in prep for a few tasty Hangrys to make an appearance.

Why did we choose an AirDrop? Simply put, it's the best way to reward our dedicated supporters who've stuck with us through thick and thin. An AirDrop ensures that every one of our holders gets a fair share of the new NFTs without any additional cost or effort. It’s a way of giving back directly to those who believe in our project the most. Let's face it, connecting to a website, whether trusted or not, can bring a risk of vulnerability. Be that inexperience in building dapps and contracts or simply bad luck from not paying attention with this new wave of complexity for owning Jpgs! An AirDrop is peace of mind with benefits. We love our community and wanted to simply say thank you with this genesis drop in style.

So, what exactly can you expect from this NFT drop? Each holder will receive an allocation of NFTs akin to their CHET pass holdings. A series of unique NFTs to commemorate your journey with us. These tokens are not just digital assets; they represent your loyalty and our appreciation. The NFTs come with special features such as exclusive sci-fi comedy laden artwork of the 5 origin species of Hangry Animals in a Genesis collection, Unique rarity attributes, randomized Health, Attack, Special Attack, Strength and Defense attributes for usage in the game and future TCG experience too. The allocation of NFTs from a who gets what perspective has also been randomized here. Even we don't know what order or where to expect the 1/1s to land.. now that's exciting to share. Let's see who pulls the rare Shillarkis Warrior as well as some as yet unseen key characters as mentioned in Fridays Twitter Spaces updates.

Our most important feature of this genesis collection is the minter royalties.. yes, you the owner of the original minted Hangry Animals Genesis collection have a built in royalty that you can control at your discretion post mint up to the max of 10%. Why the heck did we do this? Think about it.. game asset, you grind and build up the character profile through a multitude of levels and experiences to a point where you have one of the most valuable players in our games. Why not get a return on that effort when you sell on your NFT to other holders. We'd rather see holders earn passively from gameplay than a landgrab for fees on the backside for us alone.

As we capture the revenue from initial sales, we're good with sharing the love and distributing the earnings with you early believers. Less gooooh! There are even further future benefits within our ecosystem, but we'll reveal those in due course. It's our way of making sure that each NFT holds significant value and sentiment as we build a brand for the ages.

The cool stuff doesn't stop there. Our trait marketplace will start getting built out this month so folks can customize their Hangry Animal to their hearts content. The trait marketplace will allow us to release exclusive 1 of 1 traits, sponsorship items where you get paid by brands to represent them on your in-game avatars as well as your PFPs on socials.

With all this innovation and customization, it's worth noting that for a small fee, Hangry OG Andy will also take commissions for custom items and traits you wish to add to your NFTs. This creates an economy for us and for our creative holders who also wish to contribute and get paid to customize theirs and other holders characters.

We will open up a ticketing system alongside the marketplace to table requests. It is likely we will require a short community voting mechanic to ensure no traits get through that could damage the brand and the charitable brand associations we're building behind the scenes.

We don't have scheduled date for the grand reveal of these NFTs as yet, but it will be coinciding with a big newsworthy piece in the coming 2 months for sure.

Stay tuned for more updates and the reveal date. We can't wait to celebrate this milestone with all of you!

Our socials are vibin and our drive now is on promoting the launch of our genesis collection release very soon in spaces and at upcoming conferences to raise a small pot of development cash to progress the recruitment of more game devs and community members. If you own a CHET great, if you want to pick one up on Opensea, go ahead.. CHET pass benefits include:

• The CHET is redeemable for a Hangry Animal NFT (during our pre-sale) on mint day (We got you covered here.. AirDrop incoming).

• It also grants the holder a unique skin for the 3D character that is a special armour piece - not available via main mint only CHET pass holders will get dropped the skin.

• 3D rigged pose-able asset post mint for usage inside and outside of our games with IP ownership for you the holder to use freely.

• Custom dynamic trait illustrated by our founder artist @andrewminton which will be added to your NFT wallet as a special gift to early holders.

If folks can help us push and reach more people with proof, we have $FOOD tokens all ready to distribute. Drop your proof of social in the Discord #Food-Proof channel and we will reward you with some tasty future value $FOOD tokens through our social efforts.

We have a test of Merch out there on our store. This is the first batch of released items that have been co created between our resident artist @andrewminton and the community members themselves via Discord.

We're active across many social channels these days and would love to say hi. Join us on whatever platform floats your boat and come say GM, GE or GN anytime.
