Kickback is a collectible card series powered by blockchain technology. Collectors can accumulate cards through frequent pack drops or by trading with other collectors. Each card holds a different rarity score used to identify the more rare cards in the collection. Genesis Season (season 1) is made up of 5 editions (pack drops). The artwork style for Genesis Season is 'Auto-generative Avatars - A journey through the artwork'. Collectors are rewarded through collecting and holding Kickback Collectibles.
The artwork presented throughout Kickback is something we are extremely proud of. We hope to inspire a new type of enjoyment within the digital collectibles community. We want to create an experience for our collectors that is best described as subtle enjoyment, the same enjoyment many collectors get from collecting physical trading cards and collectibles. We aim to produce artwork that people are proud to show off. We want our collectors to be proud to set their favorite Kickback collectible as their profile picture or pin it to their Atomic Hub Wallet Page.
We use a tried and tested industry standard technology to provide unique auto-generations of our artwork. Each attribute is created with an eye for detail and with the utmost attention. With thousands of unique renderings of our artwork being possible we would find it extremely difficult to choose which ones made it into our sales. This is why it is so great to have the process automated! This adds to the card's rarity even if the card itself has ‘common’ attributes because it has already beaten out so many other cards to make the final selection for the sale.
Each collectible drop is carefully designed and thought out by our design team to include some great Easter eggs. For those that don't know, Easter eggs are a hidden items placed in a movie, TV show or otherwise visual media for close watchers that hold an underlying references or meanings.
We will be running competitions in our discord community for those that find the Easter eggs and prizes will be awarded!
Each asset holds a rarity score. The rarity score is calculated based on the rarity of each attribute on the asset in a simple formula. Not only does the rarity score show you how rare your asset is, it is also a key aspect in future utility that we are developing for Kickback. (It is important to note, we want to reward ALL collectibles, not just the rarest collectibles.. HINT HINT).
