GGEM's Web3 Launcher Goes Live

GGEM, a blockchain gaming platform bridging Web2 and Web3, went live with an early build. GameFi remains a largely untapped use case of blockchain technology, with over half of adults unaware of the concept. Inadequate game economies focusing on short-term value are not helping when it comes to attracting players.

On the developer side, the limited number of scalable and low-cost blockchains that can support a large user base and the absence of game studios assisting the launch process hinder the emergence of advanced Web3 games.

Unlike traditional games, the success of blockchain games depends on establishing a strong community that will make up a user base and be involved in development and marketing in a Web3 fashion.

MVP is Now Live

Reaching out to and acquiring blockchain-savvy users may challenge newly launched games. This is why GGEM, a gaming platform, aims to help Web3 games launch and onboard Web2 players. It supplies tools and services for projects to launch games and reach a readily established audience benefitting from the platform's advanced features.

After years of development, GGEM went live in March with a core build. The platform hosts dozens of simple RPG, strategy, MMORPG, and free-to-play games that attract crypto-native and non-crypto users and can be played without installation.

Interacting with the platform is a no-brainer for even those unfamiliar with blockchain. Users can play games without choosing between networks or connecting a Web3 wallet. Anyone can log into their accounts and start playing a game right away.

User-Friendly Design and Features

The platform's user-friendly design accompanies players throughout their journey. All actions on the platform can be seamlessly executed in one place. Progress from all games is synchronized in this one-stop, and the games receive automatic background updates at all times.

In-game assets are conveniently stored in personal GGEM wallets. All in-game assets represent non-fungible tokens (NFTs) that can be bought using crypto, fiat, and externally traded.

In addition to the traditional play-to-earn model, the platform employs a challenge-to-earn system to incentivize players better. Users can earn tokens and NFTs by participating in challenges, tournaments, and events.

The amount of GGEM tokens in one's wallet determines its status, with different statuses receiving proportional bonuses. GGEM allows for creating in-game quests that take the gameplay to the next level.

Players completing these small daily quests -such as killing 100 monsters- may earn additional GGEM Tokens that are delivered directly to their in-house wallet.

'The platform serves as an educational resource as well.'

Targeting traditional gamers, GGEM Academy is an educational hub with many articles and tutorials on Web3 gaming. The comprehensive guides enrich users' understanding of blockchain gaming and allow them to jump on the train without prior knowledge. Complementary to the Academy, the Learn-to-earn Gaming Program is another educational service that rewards users for completing online tests.

Bridging Web2 and Web3

Soon after the MVP launch, GGEM closed its pre-seed funding round and completed the development of all Web2 components on its platform. Meanwhile, it partnered with prominent gaming companies, including Brinc, Age of Mars, Rage Effect, and AlterVerse.

The project is developing a software development kit for game developers to synchronize with the launcher. The in-game store, slated for introduction in the third quarter, will enable players to rent assets and reduce the cost of blockchain gaming.

The GGEM token will be launched around the same time. By providing innovative tools, lowering costs, and serving as a robust infrastructure, GGEM aims to keep onboarding masses from Web2 to Web3 and contribute to creating a stable future for GameFi.
