I started playing Risingstar about a year ago. At the time I was quite new to the crypto scene and discovered Hive through playing Splinterlands. I no longer play Splinterlands as I did not like the changes to the rewards. I do however still play Risingstar and it is the only game I currently still play on Hive. The big draw was that it was free to play and required zero investment.
For those of you that have never played before, Risingstar is a music themed game. The main gameplay revolves around doing missions to progress. These missions range from 5 minutes up to many hours per mission as you progress. The missions reward you with Starbits, which is a token on the Hive blockchain. These Starbits can be sold or used to buy cards/card packs to progress further in the game. The game supports up and coming musicians and you can listen to the radio as you play, this is a nice touch. I would recommend you join the Discord server also. The game is free to play and the only investment required is time.
I would describe myself as a casual player, I tend to do a lot of the longer missions most of the time and don't spend a lot of time online doing the shorter missions. I have bought packs as and when I have needed more fans to progress only. I have bought 2 pizza slices and a pizza box so I can get some energy back for missions when needed and have also bought 10 "can of petrol" so far for mission progression.
I focus on guitar missions when I need to get more skill and have sold any non guitar instruments and used the funds to buy guitars.
Above you can see roughly where I am at fans and skill wise as well as my current ego, level etc. Currently my guitar missions are giving me between 16 and 31 skill points.
I have been selling quite a few of the Starbits I earned, that's the whole point of play to earn after all, you need to take some profits to "earn".
Above you can see the current number of Starbits I own, both in game and on the Hive blockchain. My plans going forward are:
Try to get to 1 million Starbits to get the Millionaires card and unlock the mission.
Try to increase my fans and guitar cards.
Buy more pizza slices and boxes so I can do shorter missions.
Start using the mobile version. I only just discovered this while looking through settings. This will help me a lot as I currently work 11 hour shifts with an hours travel each way, 4 days a week so I have been losing a lot of time not doing missions.
I won't be selling any Starbits until I achieve 1, once that is achieved I will be selling 50% and reinvesting 50% into 2 and 3.
I will also post on my progress every sunday with a small giveaway each week.
