LOS ANGELES, Dec. 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Moisés Zamora, the creator behind the hit Netflix series selena, founded Astrolucha with Ivón Rodríguez, an entertainment and fintech executive, earlier this year. Astrolucha intends to finance stories outside of the traditional Hollywood system through Web3 technology that will disrupt Hollywood’s systems of financing and storytelling power. Today, Zamora and Rodríguez have announced that the next step for Astrolucha is to expand their universe of cosmic superheroes into gaming with the launch of the Astrolucha web application.

Astrolucha launched in early September 2022, but is now ready to take his vision to the next stage. Following the release of its first digital collectibles in early December, Astrolucha is developing a web-based game, with plans for mobile devices, based on its cosmic superheroes inspired by the notorious luchador culture.

“The evolution of the internet and the continued rise of digital collectibles projects on the blockchain made starting Astrolucha a no-brainer.” explains Zamora. He continues“Technology has been set up to propel us into a new era of independent filmmaking. We want to be at the forefront of championing independent creators and giving them greater agency to create, promote and complete their projects.”

Astrolucha is first and foremost a community of creatives, many of them from historically reviled communities. Astrolucha’s first collection of digital collectibles was hand-drawn by 16 BIPOC artists, each bringing their own flavor and style to the way they draw their superheroes.

“Moises’s vision of how these digital art pieces could be used in a positive and expansive way was inspiring. He came thinking about queer, black and brown people, particularly artists, and how to expand their opportunities in incredibly harsh environments and resistant”. markets, such as the Hollywood studio system. He believes there is a way to use the underlying technology of digital certification as a force for change for marginalized content creators.” said Phil Jimenez, a two-time Eisner Award-winning artist for his work on DC Comics’ Wonder Woman Story.

In assisting with funding independent creators, Astrolucha empowers new creativity while accepting comics, graphic novels, games, podcasts, movies, and episodic projects. Their goal is to create curative content and become a distribution Web3 with creatives in the next stage of their careers.

Being the owner of Astrolucha NFT allows you to access your game one on one. Owners will submit their projects to the DAO for projects funded and voted on by the community. They will have the opportunity to see their finished project. Astrolucha NFT holders will have exclusive access to top-tier premieres, panels with artists and filmmakers, merchandise, metaverse experiences, IP licensing agreements, and prizes.
