Uplift
Previously, it has been mentioned why launchpads are one of the most important innovations in gameFi (check here). Uplift is keeping up with this trend with some new key features under the sleeve.
Source: cryptonewsmedia.com It is worth mentioning that currently not all gameFi launchpads are built equally, with some of them protecting investors and giving them the maximum market exposure. That is where Uplift steps in, refocusing on the fundamentals. The core focus is on the community, allowing early investors to get access to early crowdfunding deals and a fair token supply distribution. Moreover, Uplift has strong backers with the likes of NEAR Foundation and Zokyo Venture Studio, making Uplift an efficient and trustworthy launchpad.
Joyride
Joyride is a web3 game development platform. It is optimized for Unity, a popular game development engine, enabling developers to build and launch blockchain-powered esports, casual and social games on mobile devices. The possibilities with Joyride are not limited, providing to developers not only tools to build new blockchain games, but also options including A/B testing, analytics and live operations.
Users of Joyride will also be able to use their own token wallet, with multi-chain support, minting and management NFT game assets.
The future goal of Joyride is to add more blockchains that can be built on its platform with new integrations of NFT marketplaces.
The beauty of this project is that anyone has the right to participate and build on Joyride, reducing the entry barrier on the blockchain. Therefore, blockchain game developers do not need to have years experience related to crypto technologies.
The utility and complexity of this idea resulted lots of interest by prominent investors, having raised a grand total of $14 million ahead of the launch.
MetaToys
The revolution is here with MetaToys, seeking for emerging gaming solutions that will redefine community interactions. MetaToys will become the first firm to successfully combine the aspects of NFT, GameFi and SocialFi. The aim of this great synergy, is for users to enjoy this gameplay for the long-term, through a stable social life experience with rich and intense game scenes.
The attractiveness of this concept is further encompassed by the ability to freely travel to different metaverse sub-worlds. In addition, MetaToys will also open-up the land plot function, where users can build their own land. But that is not all, because the interesting part here is the improvement of the social aspect, allowing land owners to invite other friends to their land plot. This a good example of a great fusion between the aspects of gameFi and socialFi.
For the cherry on the top, MetaToys intends to complete their vision with a newly advanced gameFi 2.0, an economic model comprised of multiple tokens while maintaining playability as the top priority.
Since MetaToys has different sub-worlds, each world has an independent economic system, with different inhabitants and gameplay so players can obtain economic and governance tokens in multiple ways. With this clever approach, the overall economy system won’t be affected in case a sub-world collapses. The value of the governance token will also maintain its stability, because the platform is supported by multiple games.
