Holovate documentation

What Holovate is

Holovate is an explorable 3D virtual world that runs entirely in your browser, built on WebGL (three.js). It has three connected surfaces:

• The Frontier World — a walkable alien landscape containing 96 land parcels, portal gates, resource crystals, and a live minimap.
• The Land Exchange — a marketplace view of the same 96 parcels. Selecting, buying, or discovering land in either view updates the other instantly.
• The Web3 DApp Studio — a storefront of productized dapp builds (token kits, NFT marketplaces, staking apps, DAO consoles, and virtual-land worlds like this one) that clients can commission.

Everything in the world is free to use. Purchases settle in HVC, an in-world utility credit with no monetary value — see HVC & the ledger for the full transparency notes.

Quickstart & controls

1. Open the world. You spawn near the central hub as a guest.
2. Walk around — parcels within scanner range are discovered automatically and light up on the minimap.
3. Click a parcel (or press E near one) to inspect it in the land console.
4. Log in with a display name, or connect a browser wallet, then press Buy Selected Land.

The HUD also offers Center (return to spawn), Scan (lock the nearest parcel), and Auto Tour (a guided flight you can interrupt with any movement key).

The world: districts, biomes, parcels

The world contains 96 parcels, coded HV-001 through HV-096, laid out on a 12×8 grid and split across four districts:

• Core — the mint-green heart of the grid.
• Creator — gold parcels for builders and studios.
• Commerce — coral parcels around the trade lanes.
• Estate — violet parcels on the quieter edges.

Every parcel also sits in one of six biomes — Aurora Flats, Glass Dunes, Obsidian Basin, Coral Rift, Starlit Mesa, and Helio Grove — and carries a deterministic HVC price derived from its grid position. Parcels near the center of the grid are Prime: taller towers, higher prices. The floor price of the catalog is 140 HVC.

Discovery is positional: walking near a parcel marks it discovered, colors it on the minimap, and counts toward your explorer stats. Owned parcels render green in the world, on the minimap, and in the Land Exchange.

Wallets, sessions & saved progress

You can use Holovate three ways:

• Guest — explore freely; progress (position, discoveries, local balance) is saved in your browser's localStorage only.
• Named session — add a display name and optional email so receipts and proposals carry your name.
• Browser wallet — connect an EVM-style wallet (only your public address is shared). If no wallet extension is present, a demo wallet address is generated for you.

Holovate never asks for private keys or seed phrases, and the backend never custodies keys. You can wipe all local progress at any time with Reset Wallet in the HVC section.

Local mode vs. the live ledger

The world works even when the coin service is unreachable. The Ledger stat in the HUD tells you which mode you are in:

• Live — your wallet, purchases, daily claims, and build reservations settle on the HVC ledger service.
• Local — actions are previewed against a local balance in your browser, and sync is retried later.

On the live ledger, new wallets receive a one-time 3,200 HVC grant, and a 220 HVC faucet can be claimed once per day. Every transaction is hash-chained and publicly auditable — details in HVC & the ledger.

The DApp Studio

The studio sells production Web3 software builds: token launch kits, NFT/land marketplaces, staking and rewards dapps, DAO governance consoles, subgraph/API indexing, smart-contract security packs, 3D virtual-land worlds, and a full launch bundle. Each package lists a USD estimate, an indicative timeline, and an HVC credit that is applied inside the world.

Pressing Reserve DApp Build records a proposal on the ledger so the team can follow up — it is an inquiry, not a purchase, and no payment is taken on this site.
