AiX Play is a fast-paced, play-to-earn space arcade shooter game designed to be played as a Telegram Mini App. It is part of the broader AiXovia ecosystem, which is centered around an AI-driven trading platform. In AiX Play, players control a spaceship and combat escalating waves of enemies, collecting power-ups to improve their ship's capabilities. The game is designed for short, engaging sessions, featuring a competitive, score-focused system that appeals to both casual and dedicated players. ^{[1] [2]}​

Overview

AiX Play is positioned as a "Telegram-native, multichain arena" focused on competitive multiplayer warfare. The core gameplay loop involves players surviving against enemies in real-time, with all combat actions verified by a server-authoritative system to ensure fairness. ^{[3] [1]}​

The game is a component of the larger AiXovia project, which describes itself as a "Hybrid Intelligence Trade Signal & GameFi ecosystem." The parent project's stated mission is to create a more fair and stable trading environment by using an advanced artificial intelligence to analyze markets and orchestrate a network of over 1,000 human traders, referred to as Human Processing Units (HPUs). AiXovia claims to be "fully autonomous," with no public-facing team or CEO, and intends for governance to be managed by a future decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). AiX Play serves as a community engagement and GameFi extension of this ecosystem. ^{[4] [2]}​

The core of AiX Play's operations, including game room management and in-game incentives, is reportedly handled in real time by "Xovia," which is described as a "fully autonomous brain." While the Beta Demo allows for free play, player data and progress for accounts connected via a crypto wallet, Google, Telegram, or X account are designed to persist. ^{[5] [3]}​

The AiXovia Ecosystem

The parent AiXovia project is framed as an autonomous financial system designed to counter market manipulation. A central claim of the project is that it is the "World's First Fully Autonomous AI that orchestrates human traders." This "Hybrid Intelligence Model" works by having a central AI Brain analyze market data across multiple layers (quantitative, qualitative, on-chain, and sentiment) to formulate trading strategies. These strategies are then issued as signals to a vetted network of over 1,000 human traders who provide a final layer of validation before execution. ^{[4] [7]}​

Two key components of this ecosystem are:

• Operation Hydra: An active market management system designed to monitor the $AIX token market for manipulative activity and deploy counter-trades to stabilize its price.
• The Momentum Engine: An autonomous buyback mechanism that uses a portion of profits generated from the project's external market operations to conduct hourly buybacks of the $AIX token from the open market, creating continuous buy pressure. ^[4]

Gameplay Mechanics

Game Modes

AiX Play features two primary game modes:

• Free Game: This is an always-on demo mode with no entry fee. It operates in continuous 16-minute tournament cycles, allowing both demo and connected accounts to participate. Each cycle is broken down into four phases:

  • Lobby: A 15-second pre-game waiting period.
  • Gameplay: A 14-minute and 30-second active combat phase where players compete for scores.
  • Finishing: A 1-minute warning period before the game ends.
  • Results: A 15-second display of final rankings and a countdown to the next cycle.

• Mission: This mode refers to a paid match that requires an entry fee and offers rewards. Players can join a specific mission or share one with others using a short alphanumeric "Sector" code. ^[1]

Mission Directives

To add variety to gameplay, each session features a rotating "Mission Directive." These directives are predefined sets of modifiers that alter core gameplay parameters such as ship handling, enemy spawn rates, enemy bullet speed, and score multipliers. The defined directive sets include:

• Balanced: The baseline experience with no modifications.
• Thrusters: +8% Handling, +2% Spawn Rate, +2% Score.
• Bullet Time: -6% Spawn Rate, -10% Bullet Speed, -4% Score.
• Overdrive: +3% Handling, +15% Spawn Rate, +12% Bullet Speed, +10% Score.
• Precision: -2% Spawn Rate, -4% Bullet Speed, +1% Score.
• Surge: +7% Handling, +8% Spawn Rate, +3% Bullet Speed, +5% Score.
• Shields Up: -10% Spawn Rate, -6% Bullet Speed, -5% Score. ^[1]

Scoring System

• Survival: Players earn a base rate of 20 points for every second they stay alive.
• Combo Multiplier: This multiplier increases by 0.1x for each enemy kill made within 3.5 seconds of the last one. It has a maximum cap of 3.0x.
• Fever: A temporary state that can be activated, providing a 3x score multiplier for 10 seconds. It has a 3-second cooldown after use.
• Score Boost (Pickup): A collectible power-up that adds +1x to the score multiplier for 15 seconds. This boost is stackable up to a maximum of 5x.
• Difficulty Multiplier: This multiplier is applied to the bounty of enemies as the game's difficulty increases over time. ^[1]

Tokenomics

AiX Play’s native token, AI XOVIA ($AIX), is an SPL-standard token on the Solana blockchain that serves as the primary utility and governance token within the ecosystem. The token has a maximum fixed supply of 1,000,000,000 $AIX, of which 900,000,000 (90%) have been burned, leaving a total circulating supply of 100,000,000 $AIX. ^{[4] [5]}​
