Closing Thoughts

The idea for Mochi Monster started back in may of 2023. At that time I knew this was a big challenge, mainly because I wanted Mochi Monster to be highly accessible and playable on any device & OS, including a wallet browser.

Web3 games nowadays aren't accessible to everyone. You often have to jump through hoops just to play. Many of these web3 games require an expensive PC or purchasing $100 items just to participate. I wanted to avoid all of that and focus on onboarding UX and Gameplay for the everyday players.

Iโ€™m grateful to everyone that played the game and shared feedback. Also a special thank you to everyone that bought the GamePass.
