So... How exactly did I get to working at @tatsuworks? A thread:
First, a backstory! I first got Discord Nitro back in March of 2018 because I wanted a higher upload limit to post longer clips on my favourite hearthstone streamer's Discord server.

Yesterday’s news marked a big shift for Tatsu and today we want to also give our supporters more information with next steps for Project: Wander.
This FAQ outlines what this means for long-term holders & supporters, what carries forward, and where we’re headed next.

Thank you for your trust, our channels are always open.
This was one of the hardest decisions we’ve ever had to make, and I still think back to that period of time not so long ago where we had to make that call.
I believe that we are choosing the right path to pivot, even though it might have been easier to fade into the night rather than keep trying.
I know this isn’t easy news to everyone who’s been part of Tatsumeeko. Many of you have been with us from the very beginning. You believed in what we were building, and you stayed with us through every update, every stumble, every step forward. That kind of support… it’s not something we take for granted (and that's part of the reason why we're going to keep on building).
So I want to speak plainly.
Firstly, I want to emphasize continuity. We're not forking over to a new token nor a new investment vehicle either; no funny dilution or other mechanics, because we believe our community and our backers are our strengths, and making them weaker is the last thing we will do.
Same token, same assets/NFTs, same company, same brand, same studio, same people. We will continue to support the NFTs, as we always have.
We had to make a tough call, because Tatsumeeko/Lumina Fates wasn't getting there. We pivoted because we still believe in what we set out to do: to build something fun, social, cozy, bold, lasting, and meaningful. But better to reset now than keep pretending it’s fine and end up stuck with something that is not quite right.
We’re moving faster now in terms of development speed. The team’s tighter, more aligned. We’ve got a better sense of where we’re going and what we’re actually trying to make; with a much clearer vision of what will constitute and contribute to product and business success.
And we’re gonna be putting all our energy into what we believe our community truly wants and deserves.
To those of you who are feeling disappointed or frustrated... we hear you. And we’re still here. Still building. Still trying to get it right.
If you're still with us, thank you.
If you're not sure yet, we understand.
If you're done with us, we'll win your trust back again.
But I say this with conviction: we’re not done.

1/ The Golden Age of Ronin Starts NOW!
We have just submitted a transaction to break down the allowlist for deploying contracts on Ronin.
From this moment forward, Ronin is open.
Here’s what this grand opening means for our movement 🧵👇
I typically never play any of these TG games bc they all fucking suck.
But I finally found a decent one upon the suggestion of @44labs_ (agencies are worthless), @tatsumeeko Lumina Hunt.
I actually enjoy it, has deep RPG elements.
I started late, but top 100 is inevitable.
Lumina Hunt is LIVE!
Ielia's Play-to-Airdrop approaches ⚔️
@tatsumeeko joined the Ronin movement earlier this month.
They're building a free-to-play life simulation game within a three-part ecosystem — including the first Telegram game on Ronin.
That Telegram game is Lumina Hunt.
Play it now to start stacking Vabloons 👇

Day 1 of Tokyo Game Show 2024 🎉
We’re thrilled by the enthusiasm and support for Tatsumeeko. So many people stopped by to try the game and took home some plushies!
Been grinding Lumina Hunt from @tatsumeeko a bit.
Here's the game loop so far for me.
1. Press "Tap to Catch". Spend 5 energy. This can be a bit laggy so I login and out if that's happening to me. Energy recharges over time as well as when you level up!
2. Sometimes you'll get Lumin, which are creatures you can use in expeditions.
3. Press "expedition" and send Lumin, 4 at a time. The first one available is the "earth expedition". After 5 minutes you'll be able to claim rewards. Some of your Lumin will die. Others may survive the mission.
