Unser Angebot

"Steam for Web3": A platform focusing on providing a toolkit for game developers to seamlessly integrate Web3 based technologies into their games. The platform aims to democratise the creation and management of in-game assets, allowing for true ownership, increased player engagement, and cross-game interoperability. With user-friendly APIs, SDKs, and smart contracts, developers can easily implement features such as tokenization, asset trading, and complex economic systems.

Zielgruppe

Game developers & gamers

Herausforderungen

Technical complexity: we need to create extremely easy (Stripe level) tools so that developers can integrate our platform into any game.
Community: building and maintaining a community of players and game developers will be essential for the growth of the platform.

Unsere Story

While Decentralised Finance (DeFi) has been groundbreaking, it may not be the most accessible gateway for the real goal of the web3 community, which is to onboard the next billion users. In contrast, gaming – a quickly growing global market – presents a more relatable and accessible entry point into the web3 world. The motivation for this plan comes from recognising that gaming, especially free-to-play or low-cost games, offers a more accessible and risk-free entry into the world of web3 technologies compared to DeFi. This makes it a perfect way to introduce a large number of people to web3 technologies. Today's gaming platforms already have features similar to what web3 offers, like small in-game purchases for special items (similar to NFTs) and their own trading markets (like DeFi systems). But in these current systems, the players don't really own the items they buy or trade; they are restricted within the game's own world. These systems tend to be complex, making it unfeasible for indie developers to implement. If the maintainers of these systems stop operating, players would completely lose their earned assets, which could be worth 100s of thousands or even millions of dollars.

Web3 technology solves both of these limitations:

- By giving players true ownership of their in-game items, giving them an incentive to participate and grow communities
- by storing their assets on web3, protecting them from deletion
- and by making it easier for different games/systems to work together, enabling developers of all sizes to create and integrate these advanced systems.
