HOW THE
ECONOMY
WORKS
Play. Earn. Get real value back.
Support us — support yourself. A studio that wins only when its players win too. Free to play. Skill-based pay. Loyalty-rewarded. Anti-pay-to-win on every line that matters.

The Principle
THE
ONE
RULE
For every euro the community spends, a meaningful share flows straight back to players — as prize money, rewards, free items, merch, and value.
We keep enough to build the game and grow toward a full AAA standalone title; the rest returns to you.

Smart, not greedy. A studio that wins only when its players win too.

Speak the language
PLAIN ENGLISH
BEFORE WE
GET INTO IT
Five terms. That's all you need.
🎯
Quest — a small in-game or scrim task. Done = V-Bucks. Stacks daily.
⚔️
Scrim Ranked — organized 5v5 matches with MMR. Discord queue. Pure skill, no perks.
💰
V-Bucks — Fortnite's native currency. Earn in BU, spend on Pass + vendor.
🏅
Tier — your status: Free, Supporter, Elite, Pro, Legend. Each unlocks more.
🐐
GOAT Path — earned (not bought). Skill / Streamer / Scrim. All free. Top road to lifetime status.

What makes us exceptional
THE
EXCEPTIONAL 5
Five things no other tactical FPS — UEFN or standalone — actually does.
💰
WE GIVE BACK INSTEAD OF KEEPING IT ALL — most studios keep everything. We keep enough to build the game; a meaningful share goes back to the community as prize money, rewards, coaching pay, free items. No other tactical FPS publishes this openly, let alone commits to it.
🎓
GOATs ARE PAID — NOT SOLD — other communities make top players sell coaching at $50/hr. We pay our GOATs $20–100 per session/video/mentor month to teach the community. Top talent becomes the studio's payroll, not the community's invoice.
🐐
100 LIFETIME FOUNDER SLOTS FOR ZERO EUROS — Warframe charged $250 for Founder. We give 100 of 300 slots to FREE GOAT players. The best skill/stream/scrim players earn permanent shareholder status without ever paying a cent.
🗿
YOUR STATUE IN THE MAP · YOUR VOTE IN THE STUDIO — Founders co-direct the company itself, not just maps. Real shareholder pool. Physical legacy etched into Sakura Eclipse. This is unprecedented in indie FPS.
🛡️
PERKS OFF IN COMPETITION — every paid perk auto-disables in scrims + tournaments. Pure skill decides every trophy + every dollar of prize money. We protect competitive integrity harder than most "pro" tactical games.
