Overview
Monster Racing League is a multiplayer Auto-Racing-Game. It’s an entirely new take on the genre. You can control skills, power-ups, and abilities. Ultimately the cars race for you and have a variety of stats that you can customize and breed. This is the type of game where you can win or lose and laugh either way. This game will of course have crypto integration so you will be able to breed, race, win rewards, unlock ability cards, and booster packs.
Monsters
Monsters are your drivers and you’ll need at least one to play the game. Every monster is a tradable NFT. Each monster is unique and has stats that bring its own strengths and weaknesses to each race.
Every monster belongs to a tribe, with its own history and lore. Monsters have access to special abilities that are specific to their tribe.
Monsters can be bred together to create new monsters. Offspring have a combination of their parent’s traits including some random variation.
Traits for monsters come in 3 different types:
- Visual traits affect the monster’s appearance
- Performance traits affect how well the monster performs during a race
- Quality traits affect the monster’s rarity, value, or earning potential — for example how much or often it can breed, how much it can race in a day, or what tribe and edition it belongs to.

What does this mean for Guppy Gang?
Flightless is actually a completely separate game studio developing Monster Racing League. We overlap in the community management and marketing efforts, however as far as game production goes, they are completely separate.
There will be an allocation of allowlist spots for Guppy Gang. We have already taken a snapshot and will release some more information soon on how to enter.
