I mean that in the context of this, I’d assume that some sort of crypto (ew) wallet is involved. You legally can’t have one till you’re 18…

I watched the first season of the series (Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix) (I loved it), of course in Hungarian; that's why I want to play Captain Laserhawk: the G.A.M.E.. I'm still waiting for the second season. But I haven't received an answer to my question yet.

Trivia:
The age rating for Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix was only 16 (at least in Hungary), despite this, Captain Laserhawk: the G.A.M.E. cannot be played by people under 18.

For example, I don't know GTA. I don't like PlayStation 2 (you can read about that in my profile page).

Sorry if I offended you. But I need help, Ubisoft Support is crap, Eden Online doesn't give proper information, and neither does Copilot.

Hey there! Sorry for any mistakes, as I just woke up and I saw that I got an email from this thread, but gonna answer some questions about that, as I got both the game and access to it. But, I got some knowledge to that topic, so I will try to answer that!
  • Citizen ID is an old name for NFTs specifically for that game, they're now called "Niji Warriors", but they still use the term from time to time, but they're interchangeable. They're NFTs, that's it.
  • To get them, you need either crypto or real money to even buy them in first place, but you can't get them since only 18 years old people and older can do that, that's legal regulations for that, and so the kids wouldn't spend money on crypto stuff either.
  • It's because the game currently in Early Access, but also because Ubisoft is keep trying to make some money on NFTs and other crypto stuff, even at the times when they were about to get bankrupt, so they want to get money from that and the "best" way to do that is to force people to get it, so they get an access to the game in first place.

I wouldn't recommend to even attempt to get access to it no matter how huge Laserhawk fan you are, and it's someone who played the game since Closed Beta. :sad:
Not only you're too young to even play and use crypto stuff at all (and you shouldn't play crypto games in general, there is tons of issues with them and most of them are just poorly-done microtransaction hell, but with NFTs, and it's the same case for this game), the game isn't even worth to play at all, you will get bored immediately since there isn't much to play besides going to the arena every single time to shoot bots (there barely any real people who play this game, so most of time you will get in fight with bots with very obvious pathfinding) and the combat is not fun at all, and the graphics aren't good either.
They also recently added microtransactions to the game and now trying to get people to pay for microtransactions like locking Battle Pass stuff with "premium" currency, that you can only get with real money, and it's even if you got NFT to play this game for whatever reason. And it's cuz because people barely play that game at all and Ubisoft wants money from that game as a crypto project.

Is it worth to get the game? No. Is it worth to get NFT for it? No. Is it worth to attempt to get that as a kid? Hell no.

Don't even try to ask your parents about making crypto wallet and spend money on it, not only you will get scolded by them for wanting to get one for Captain Laserhawk crypto game or even get grounded for that idea at all, it's also illegal too. You would need to wait a bit for that, but at the time, that game would most likely end up being dead, considering how barely anyone plays it and a lot of Captain Laserhawk fans despite it because of crypto stuff and it being poorly done too.

Gonna update my post to put more stuff into it:
Don't trust Eden Online, since they're only here to promote that NFT game, and don't even wait from them for any information for season two either, because you will only get crypto and disappointment, they also use Bullfrog and Rayman to get attention from people since these two are fan favourites, so, try to get the information about it from Netflix and Bobbypills instead in this case.

If I understand correctly, I have a small chance to play Captain Laserhawk: the G.A.M.E., but it's not recommended. It looked fun to me from the videos, but until today I haven't talked to anyone who has played it. Plus, it would be illegal for me to play it. Bullfrog could fuck Eden's dick, fucking Rayman, fuck the whore God's cum! So I guess there's no point in getting upset over a crappy game.

It's not that fun to be honest and it plays not good either, trust me, you will get very annoyed quickly with how the shooting works in that game for example. :mrgreen:
It's not worth to get it at all plus you're 13 years old, you're too young to get it due to legal regulations (aka you can't get into crypto stuff until you're 18, because it's financial stuff and you can very easily get scammed by crypto projects and usually adults at that point are somewhat responsible for their money and their investings), and the game's community is barely active at all since most of people are only for NFTs for that game and not for the game itself really, usual for crypto crowd. :hinhin:
And seriously, don't ask your parents to get it either, because not only it would be illegal due to your age, but also you most likely get end up scolded or grounded for asking about it in first place with the bad reputation of crypto stuff and those crypto games. :fou:

Also, if you want to play similar, but more fun game - then check out Hotline Miami series, and plus it wouldn't ask you to get NFT and crypto wallet to even play it in first place. Can't afford Hotline Miami right now? Either wait for a bit, ask someone or get it from other means for now. They're way more fun to play than NFT game of Captain Laserhawk.

To get the stuff from game files and to see if they changed anything in that game after Closed Beta, and also to get sprites from Rayman mini-game from the website before it died. And spoilers: they didn't change stuff much from Closed Beta. And it got worse as they added microtransactions

I'll add this:
You said I could try games like Captain Laserhawk: the G.A.M.E. I would say that I basically like the Super Mario franchise, in which party games, role-playing games, but especially platform games are common. Rayman is also based on similar video game genres, which is why I like it. As I said: the only reason I want to play Captain Laserhawk: the G.A.M.E. is because I liked Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix (my parents allowed me to watch the series, but they don't like it); but if we want to go back to the beginning of how I got to the point where I want to play Captain Laserhawk: the G.A.M.E., then we have to start this long story with Super Mario.

I don't force you to play Hotline Miami or other similar games like them, but those games are pretty similar to Captain Laserhawk: the G.A.M.E. gameplay wise, except way more fun and no crypto and NFTs inlvolved at all, so you won't have to get crypto wallet for it at all (and once again, you're too young for that legally). And you can extend your gaming horizons too with that.

And once again, most of Laserhawk fans along with Rayman fans really hate that game as it's basically crappy crypto game and Eden Online only promotes it along with other crypto projects and NFTs nowadays, that is also not being a good game at all. :sad:
I would suggest to rather read official comics and mangas for Captain Laserhawk like Crushing Love boy's love (basically yaoi) backstory manga about Dolph Laserhawk or the French-exclusive one Mega City Blues that is also with Dolph too, since it's not only official stuff that is not crypto, but also more lore too for fans. And try to check out the artbook for the show too! It got a lot of fun stuff here and it got stuff from the creators of the show. :up:

There is also some collabs that were made for other Ubisoft games, like with Trackmania that got the map based on the show, though you need a subscription for Trackmania to even play that map unfortunately, but it's the closest thing to game stuff with Laserhawk, that is NOT crypto and/or NFTs.

Bringing some updates to this topic and also gonna need to update the article for this game on RayWiki, but the game's servers recently died in 30th June, so... Rest in piss, NFT game!
And also a huge amount of text, sorry for any mistakes here, English isn't my first language! :(

The game had like 6 seasons in comparison to the show's 1 season only in a span of two years of its life. I know it's not really comparable since the seasons are very different for games and shows, but considering how much Ubisoft were invested in this NFT crypto stuff along for Champions Tactics (which they also killed off any crypto-related stuff for this game too in span of 1-2 months before killing Laserhawk game), you can tell they really wanted it badly to be this new crypto transmedia franchise. :hinhinhin:

Not only they failed it pretty badly, but like even the crypto bros didn't care much for this game and they were here for images and just for any crypto stuff, despite the PR for them and being at these crypto conventions. Like the online for this game was empty most of time from my experience, since you were fighting with bots most of time instead of people, I only saw real people in very few matches and that's where I actually kinda enjoyed it aside from the game's very crappy shooting. Same situation that was in Closed Beta - same thing for Early Access. I remember fighting with some crypto bros from Eden Online Discord server in the game, but only like 1-2 people, that's all.

I would also mention the fans' reaction to this game was extremely negative at the beginning to the point of getting that infamous tweet about replacing Rayman from official Eden Online Twitter account. But then Laserhawk fandom' is just kinda... Forgot about it? Or at least they ignore as hard as possible about the game, which is not really great, since these kind of things should be called out a lot constantly imo. And not only that, Eden Online was baiting lots of fans (and also targeting Rayfrog shippers, aka Ramon/Rayman x Bullfrog) constantly and successfully too, each time they were putting tweets with these two together and getting lots of interactions in comparison to their tweets about the game itself and crypto stuff in it.
Like, I know how people mostly just care only for Ramon and Bullfrog in the show, with some not even knowing about Dolph Laserhawk despite being literally the main protagonist and the show being called after him, so, gonna be honest, but come on, dude??? Why people were eating up that crap from the company who turned their beloved show into failed crypto slop, as soon as they saw their favourite characters' posts from tha account? And not many people were calling this out unfortunately. :pfff:

But going back to this game, did it work as a game? Not really, very few people were genuinely playing and most of time it's just fighting with bots in the game instead of real people. Did work as this transmedia thing? Also not at all, the only transmedia experience was with doing voting for in-game features, but even that could be done by your own NFT, if you don't bother to vote.... Yes, Ubisoft wrote a huge thing to make it, so your own NFTs you wasted your money on it would vofe for you, if you're either too lazy or didn't get to vote by yourself in time. And it's all AI powered too as well. :pascontent:
SPEAKING OF AI, they relied on it a lot, I know that company named LibertAI was helping them out with it and they made an article about it on Twitter too. They used AI for NFTs, so that's why they looked worse than crappy pixel art, they also used it to make this DedSec (Watch Dogs' thing) event with modified ChatGPT-like thing on it, as the theme of it was hacking into Eden's systems, and they also used AI to turn those NFTs into glorified Character.AI chatbots, but instead it's worse and it's locked behind crypto. And they got plans to have this feature being a thing even after the game is dead. :?
And they also allowed AI art for art contests for their Eden Online Discord server, so while second art contest caused a huge backlash about it on Twitter, later contests were chill... Most because almost no people were drawing for it anymore, so crypto bros were either using AI to generate some random art for the game (and some were actually winning with that!!), or they just were stealing artworks and very poorly edited it. Why there was no more backlash against it by the fans of the show, considering that Ubisoft went back to allowinf AI art for art contests despite the backlash they got with second art contest? Why people just gave up about it? That's concerning thing I noticed here.

I won't even mention the Discord server, that was full of crypto bros and underage Laserhawk fans, along with weirdos from the fandom all in one place - it was an terrible mix of possible combination of people in it.
And speaking of kids, they were allowed to be in the server and also for their Web3 Ubisoft server too, despite that you can only legally deal with any crypto stuff in the age of 18. So why the kids were allowed to be here along with crypto bros in their 30s and 40s? Who though it was a great idea to let kids to be here? :pfff:

So yeah, the existence of this game was weird and controversial from the start and I have a hunch that crypto stuff for this show was planned for a while, at least closer to the show's release or end of its production, since they already had channels for it in their Web3 server, they were also promoting citizenship thing y(that would later turn out to be NFTs, that would be renamed as Niji Warriors) on early version of official website, that mentioned minting the citizenship you got for yourself, and crypto news were also sharing early information about the game as well, long before we had any proper information from Eden Online itself, since in the news, it used to be known as Captain Laserhawk: the Eden Online experience. Not mentioning the leaked ratings for it, where it was called Niji Warrior, and considering that Closed Beta's executable is called "Captain Laserhawk Niji Warrior" and its content folder being also called "Niji Content", it's quite obvious it was supposed to be this game.

Also sorry for this enormous wall of text lmao, I did lot of research into this.

Also gonna share the link to the archive I have made recently of both Closed Beta and Early Access of the game, since it got abandoned by Ubisoft themselves anyway and nobody else seemed to care enough to preserve stuff from this game, so I did it by myself.
https://archive.org/details/laserhawk-cbt-ea

I did it separately, so the OG post wouldn't be wayyy too long, so that's why.

Closed Beta without Ubi link is launchable, but because its servers have been dead long time ago, it just reverts to black screen. Wuth Ubi link the game just crashes, but on my older laptop, where it was installed already - it just reuses the Early Access's link, since I think it just takes the place of Closed Beta version of it.
Alsl Closed Beta's Ubi link was removed by Ubisoft themselves, not me, when they removed the game from the launcher, thus making it kinda playable again, because before that - you had to get a key that you no longer have access to after they ended Closed Beta at September.

Early Access is playable, but it's still connected to Ubisoft Connect for now, so unfortunately I don't know how to crack it. It also got Easy Anti-Cheat on it as well, so it can also complicate things of cracking it too.

The only thing I changed in Closed Beta's files was the config file with only one line changed from 0 to 1, since I tried to get to Debug mode of it, but couldn't get to it since I didn't have much knowledge to pull it off unfortunately, so yeah, everything else is not modified in any way and preserved as it is.
