Hi everyone,
I’m Navid, and I’m currently building an early-stage idea and found out Gitcoin supports climate change eco friendly solution and ideas.I’d love your feedback and thoughts on my idea.
I have name it Greeny for now. So what is Greeny?
Greeny is a mobile game web based game that lets players grow tree-based characters ( not necsseraly but its good to be related to forest protection like elves or forest guardians) , complete green quests, and earn in-game currency. The twist? That currency can be converted into real-world tree planting, and eventually into crypto rewards.
It’s a game where:
- Players tap, level up tree spirits, and protect the forest (using idle or deck-builder mechanics or any other game type)
- Players earn two tokens:
- $LEAF for in-game actions, watching ads, or purchases
- $TREE tied to real-world tree planting (unlocked through milestones or quests)
- Once enough progress is made, users receive:
- A Tree Certificate
- A real photo of a tree planted on their behalf
- GPS coordinates they can view and share on social media
- Verified users in rural areas can become Planters, earning $TREE for planting and uploading tree photos with GPS/time metadata
Why This Matters
- People want to take climate action but don’t know how
- Many can’t donate, but would watch ads or play games to make an impact
- Crypto and games often lack real-world meaning — this combines both
Where I’m At
I’m a solo founder with a vision but no development background. Right now I’m:
- Exploring a no-code prototype for the mobile game
- Learning about token setup
- Looking for collaborators, feedback, and maybe Web3 devs who align with this vision
- Planning to apply for Gitcoin Grants to fund an MVP
What I’d Love From You:
- Feedback on the idea or structure
- Would you use or support a game like this?
- Are there others here working on climate gaming I should talk to?
- Open to advice on smart contract setup or wallet integration
Thanks for reading and for any thoughts, ideas, or encouragement you can offer. I believe Greeny could start as something small and fun — and grow into something really impactful for both people and the planet.
Happy to answer any questions or go deeper into the game mechanics if helpful.
Navid
