A few roadblocks are preventing the mainstream adoption of Web3 games. One is the high cost of entry for some games, requiring NFTs to play. Immutable aims to solve roadblocks by offering easy onboarding and interoperability. ProjectsToWatch2023:
from Sydney, Australia founded by James Ferguson, Robbie Ferguson and Alex Connolly in 2018.
"Passport is a self-custodial wallet, where users can sign in with just an email and one-time password – it will be a game changer for players and radically reduce user acquisition costs." Immutable’s President and co-founderSmartly, the Immutable team is aiming Passport not only at users but at game developers so that projects are working within an interoperable gaming universe from the early stages of development and won’t need to retrofit the Passport into the code.
“We immediately saw that at the moment, these [Web3] games are really shallow, but it should be possible to build better games. And if you had better games, and the items were tradable as NFTs, that would be a way better experience than one that we were used to when we were playing those games.” Connolly said.
“We had that realization: People should own items in games,” he said. That set the trio off on a journey that eventually led to a billion-dollar business, he continued. “We built games and where we ran into problems, we built technology to solve the problems that those games had run into. And I think those problems have changed over time. And that's been the journey of Immutable overall.”
