Since 2020, the decentralized gaming landscape has exploded with a wave of innovative web3 platforms capturing the attention of gaming enthusiasts and developers worldwide. Platforms that have found the most success (Decentraland, Sandbox, Axie Infinity) have all harnessed at least one of the growing trends of virtual worlds, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), in-game assets, and most significantly, play-to-earn mechanics.
With a growing focus on the importance of community-driven ecosystems, transparency, and in-game economies, exciting new ideas are now a reality. One interesting newcomer is Neon Link, a unique gaming web3 platform and a vibrant community-based ecosystem that is poised to launch its first run of games.
Neon Link: A Community-Driven Platform
As a result, the Neon Link platform has raced to over 100,000 users and has three exciting new games slated for release in July. Neon Link also understands the importance of empowering its developers, provides unique tools to create immersive gaming environments, and fosters a multilateral approach to game development.
The Heart of the Platform
At the heart of the Neon Link platform lies the link network, a purpose-built infrastructure tailored specifically for game design. Powered by its native NEON Coin, the platform facilitates governance, staking, and network transactions. This incentivizes all stakeholders to collaborate and participate actively in shaping the project’s direction while reaping rewards. Moreover, Neon Link’s commitment to building everything from scratch has resulted in streamlined scaling and performance, eliminating common issues like slow transactions and high fees.
Neon Link Wallet & Developer Tools
The first step for new players is to get the Neon Link tresor wallet. The wallet is a safe and secure place to store and hold digital assets and essential game items. Users can simply enter the chain ID, native token and explorer details to gain access to any network and interact with their favorite dApps on any chain. The Neon wallet is available on Android, iOS and as a Chrome extension. Protect your assets on the go or from the comfort of your web browser.
Tools are not just reserved for players though, Neon Link game developers stand to benefit creatively (and financially) from the platform’s SDK tools and apps. These features will empower game developers to implement smart contracts and artificial intelligence, paving the way for groundbreaking advancements in game design, and increasing their revenue at the same time.
Operation Break-Me Testnet Campaign
Launched in May, Neon Link’s ‘Operation Break-Me’ testnet campaign showcased the platform’s robust network and attracted significant attention from gamers and developers. In an attempt to “break” the network, Neon Link shelled out a massive $2 million USD in NEON Coin rewards for new sign-ups.
New users were tasked to spam the network with as many transactions as possible. With a capability of 35,000 transactions per second, the Neon network passed 10 million transactions with no hint of an issue. Following a series of successful funding rounds and testnet campaign, Neon Link players and developers are eagerly awaiting the release of its first three games, including the 3-rd person shooter Ascend the End, that launches after the NEON token sale in July.
