- Project Overview
We propose the development of an advanced and powerful, browser-based 3D world builder for Sandbox landowners and creators, powered by OZONE Technologies. This tool will enable seamless land management, asset integration, $SAND token utility, and optimized publishing—entirely within a native web interface that is compatible and export to the Sandbox platform.
- Problem Identification
Today, tools to build on Sandbox require significant technical skills and downloadable workflow. Other tools enable basic block composition but do not have the full Assets marketplace integration or provide utility to the 6M + assets on Open Sea and the plethora of NFTs available in the ecosystem.
- Solution Approach
The Sandbox Advanced Web Builder will be fully integrated with Sandbox Ecosystem unlocking a new level of UGC and utility for assets and $SAND currency.
- Frictionless Access: Create custom 3D environments instantly in the browser—no software download required.
- Land Integration: Auto-detect wallet-linked land size, type, and metadata.
- Asset Economy: Browse Sandbox-compatible assets, including full OpenSea integration for instant use and purchase using $SAND to buy assets.
- Performance Guardrails: Live feedback on tri counts, file sizes, and memory footprint to ensure Sandbox compatibility and high performance.
- Workflow Continuity: Export-ready packages compatible with the Sandbox Game Maker to add gaming functionality easily after all the world building is done on the web in minutes.
- Instant Previews in the browser → see and explore how your world will look and feel via instant walkthroughs
- Impact Measurement
We will evaluate success based on how many users are creating accounts, new wallets creations joining the Sandbox ecosystem, number of worlds built, and NFTs utility. Ultimately leading to user retention and expansion of the user base
- Technical Implementation & Timeline
Phase 1: Establish URL domain (ex: sandboxwebbuilder.com) with initial landing page, user registration and login system with wallet connection fetching $SAND balance and Sandbox NFTS. (20%)
Phase 2: Enable users to start a project and Establish 3D Engine Rendering and build an environment with preset assets library and blocks that saves user scene composition in user account. (20%)
Phase 3: Enable users to compose worlds with a mix of assets, blocks, and NFTs from Wallet to save to user account (20%)
Phase 4: Build Export Pipeline to Unity compatible file format that users can submit to SANDBOX (20%)
Phase5: Marketplace development: ability of users to buy assets with $SAND and Open Sea collections Utility: Ability to browse, buy, and use Assets from Open Sea directly into the Web builder through Wallet connectivity (subject to Open Sea Capabilities) (20%)

Cost breakdown of timeline deliverables:
Phase 1: Establish URL domain (ex: [sandboxwebbuilder.com]- (20%)(http://sandboxwebbuilder.com)) with initial landing page, user registration and login system with wallet connection fetching $SAND balance and Sandbox NFTS.
Utility and timeline: This heavy engineering devops and infrastructure set up phase will establish domain and backend systems, servers and security modules along with web3 infrastructure integrations that will enable to start building community, marketing and starting promotions of the accessible online web builder—> 4 weeks → 120,000 $SAND
Phase 2: Enable users to start a project and Establish 3D Engine Rendering and build an environment with preset assets library and blocks that saves user scene composition in user account. (20%)
Utility and timeline: This phase will provide open up the 3D world building environment to the community. Access to tons of 3D models, blocks, and assets that let creators start to build beautiful and high performance virtual environments in minutes —> 4 weeks - 120,000 $SAND
Phase 3: Enable users to compose worlds with a mix of assets, blocks, and NFTs from Wallet to save to user account (20%)
Utility and timeline: This phase is focused on enabling SANDBOX specific assets and NFTS into the builder. Adding all the custom assets and NFTS from SANDBOX into the web builder—> 2 weeks - 120,000 $SAND
Phase 4: Build Export Pipeline to Unity compatible file format that users can submit to SANDBOX (20%)
Utility and timeline: This phase is establishing the bridge from the SANDBOX web builder to the unity workflow, this phase will enable creators to export their creations built on the web to the Sandbox editor unity pipeline to add game mechanics–> 2 weeks - 120,000 $SAND
Phase5: Marketplace development: ability of users to buy assets with $SAND and Open Sea collections Utility: Ability to browse, buy, and use Assets from Open Sea directly into the Web builder through Wallet connectivity (subject to Open Sea Capabilities) (20%)
Utility and timeline: This phase is enabling $SAND utility onto the web builder marketplace of assets provided by OZONE. We will create and make available the assets store available for sale in addition to the free items available. We will attempt to connect the OPEN SEA marketplace natively into the online web builder also subject to Open Sea Capabilities) —> 4 weeks - 120,000 $SAND
Total timeline: 16 weeks
Total budget: 600,000 $SAND
O-ZONE will sponsor and support the hosting and maintenance of the web builder post launch.
