[IMPACT]
The Cardano Budz team has been developing our Cardano Budz assets since the early days of Cardano NFT's. We have built a reputation for delivering on our promises in a timely fashion. We've been successful and developing the brand beyond simple NFT's, and are actively developing our Grow your own Adventure Play2Earn product. We have an anticipated launch of 4/20/2022 for our initial Minimum Viable Product, which will allow users to purchase a cNFT grow kit. These cNFT's are created real time, with a random attribute system. This is unlike most cNFT delivery, where the series of cNFT's is created in advanced, but only minted at the time of purchase. There will be no way to predetermine the attributes assigned to a cNFT, since ever we, the project owners, wont know. Since the platform is meant for many years of enjoyment, there will be no limit to the number of cNFT's that can be bought, and we will add new attributes in time, as well as more advanced game play configurations.
For the purposes of this proposal, we are looking to create a handheld version of this GYOA platform. The handheld application will allow easy flipping between testnet and mainnet. This will allow for players to "Try before they buy". It allows them to get involved with the product, without any financial commitment. The handheld application will include a wallet to hold Cardano Assets, and will allow for easy stakepool delegation; thus bringing them in to the world of Cardano, without having to become blockchain experts.
We believe our proposal not only expands upon the fledging Cardano based gaming products, but allows for much greater access to a larger audience; one whom may have little to no familiarity with cryptographic currencies.
The most significant risk to this proposal will be the addition of a wallet in to the application. We plan to reach out to the existing handheld wallet makers for potential partnership opportunities on this component.
[FEASIBILITY]
With the GYOA product nearly ready for launch, there should be no problems with delivering on this proposal.

The Cardano Budz project has not been previously funded through Catalysts. However, we are also the owners of cNFTHub.io, which was previously funded to add Multilanguage support to that website. https://cardano.ideascale.com/c/idea/367949
