Here at Gameonomics, we are obsessed with finding unique and exciting web3 game projects. I first spotted My Pet Hooligan on Twitter when I saw a brief video of it’s gameplay. I was immediately captivated by its attractive art and fun looking gameplay. Put simply, it’s a GTA style, open world multiplayer game that involves players running around doing missions, PVP contests and minigames. My Pet Hooligan is AMGI Studio’s flagship web3 game.

Samsung has just launched a new area next to their Samsung 837X metaverse concept store in Decentraland. The new House of Sam area is a “Samsung experience” where players can learn about products, dance on a party stage, and look at VR style digital designs. The existing 837X area is the VR/metaverse version of Samsung’s well established 837 building in New York City, where you can try products, learn about technology, attend events, contribute to challenges like the recycleup TikTok design c...

The TikTok and short form video trend is changing the way people are viewing and interacting with content. We live in a world where can watch the newest movies releases from the safety of our couches, we can order food from our beds at 5am, or talk to our friends from across the globe instantly. For most people, this level of technology and convenience has changed the way they consume content. Average attention spans have decreased more than 25% since the early 2000s to approximately 8 second...

Play-to earn needs one of two things to thrive and both involve providing players with a reward for their time. The rewards are income or entertainment. With income, players will play because they are paid to do so regardless of if the game is fun or not. With entertainment, players will play because they are enjoying themselves. Income rolls in when said players spend money on cosmetics which boosts the economy of the game sustainably. Currently gaming crypto attempts to cater to income-seek...

Do we get to cast spells in this experience? No. Do we witness any Spells? No. So what do we experience within the “Spells of Genesis” map? Spells of Genesis is a mobile blockchain trading card game that has created a fantasy experience within the Sandbox metaverse. You can find this experience at -3,4 on the Sandbox S3 Alpha Map. Rather than granting us the power of magic, we are tasked with 2 basic quests. One quest requires us to find all the Satoshi blocks throughout the map and the other...

If you are reading this, you have probably invested or looking to invest in crypto. Personally, since I had money from poker laying around, I thought the natural decision is to start investing some of it. Over the years I mostly invested in trading bots, supercar deals (don’t ask) and of course, crypto. Recently I lost a bunch of money on a trading bot. I took on more risk then I was capable of managing, it backfired and it wiped out my profits for the last 6 months. Which brings me here. I r...

Everyone is trying to speculate and guess what is going to make crypto gaming blow up. Is it Epic Games coming to crypto? Is it NFT’s? Play to earn? I’ve started to believe big adoption will come from reality becoming gamified and not games coming to reality. I am proposing that Metaverse x Gaming is the next level, not games coming to the blockchain.Gamified RealityWhy Fortnite coming to Crypto will not workTraditional gaming being converted to blockchain is simply not enough to bring adopti...

PAX Australia 2022 had one of its largest demonstrations of indie game developer exhibition stands and all of them were vying to gain the attention of large wealthy studios. Many of the developers showcased some extremely aesthetic games with some very clever game mechanics. However, the sad reality of the indie game industry is that without further funding or onboarding of new players, many of these small-time studios will go bust and their high prospect games will descend into the abyss.Tes...

Recently, Sandbox launched their Alpha Season 3, filled with new experiences. Overall enjoyable, but there was one in particular that got me bullish on Sandbox and crypto gaming in general: the Ledger experience, ‘Ledger’s School of Block’. For those that don’t know, Ledger is a hardware crypto wallet. On their map, I had to learn about the blockchain, NFT’s, crypto security, all through fun quests.Never been called 'little degen' beforeMetaverse EducationThroughout the game I was l...

Sun, crypto, cults, lambos and LOTS of exchanges… Australia’s first ever crypto convention hosted in the sunny tourist town of Gold Coast has come to a close and it's fair to say it did not exceed or fall below average expectations. It was, as we Australians like to say, “not bad”. Its not a crypto convention without a LamboLets start with the negatives. The distribution of convention passes/tickets was done awfully. Many people were stuck outside the venue for almost an hour trying to c...

The convention started off pretty good as I rushed in looking to get a seat before Saylor started his talk. I was happy that I organised picking up my convention pass the day before because there was a huge line to get passes. After some basic introductions and a few “so tell us what you do“ type noob questions, Saylor finally got into some really interesting discussion around lightning wallets for quick consumer purchases. He talked about a bitcoin lightning wall that could be used for ecomm...
