One of the scary things about the #Solana NFT space is you never *really* know who's behind the projects

Will they rug? Can they deliver on the "roadmap"? gmi?

Well - what if I there was a project with an all-star team and an already proven concept?

Enter @photofinishgame 🧵

What is it?

A digital horse-racing game which lets players buy, sell, breed, train, and race horses against each other.

All while earning real money.

Think @zed_run, but no gas fees. Built on #Solana.

Who's the team?

Well, remember EA Sports? Take a few of their top vets, add in some great engineering talent, some awesome community managers and boom.

This isn't their first rodeo either. The team's previous game has 13 MILLION players, and a Google Play Store rating of 4.7!

Still not convinced?

The team literally develops the horse racing simulations that NBC sports uses on TV ().

More features:
- Genetics-based breeding system
- Realistic race simulations (weather, distance, age effects)
- Spectator betting
- Sick PFPs

How to get involved?

You can purchase a Stylish Stud. The floor is about 7 SOL right now, which isn't too bad. One of them just sold for 500 SOL ().

The Stylish Stud gets you:
- a VIP pass to the game
- male horse for breeding
- more perks TBD

Can't afford to drop that much?

Well, for Stylish Studs to breed, you also need Fine Fillies (the female counterparts).

5000 of these will be available. An announcement will be made regarding a drop for these on Friday ()

What if you can't get one of those either?

There will still be another drop (sale?), for the horses that you need for actual racing. TBD.

Even if you can't buy a horse, I'd recommend to at least keep tabs on this project or take notes from it, it has huge potential.

Roadmap:

I know it sounds like I'm shilling, but I'm genuinely excited for this one.

As always, don't just take my word for it - do your own research!
