Very excited to partner with Daryl Xu, Viktoriya Hying, Sean Geng and the rest of the team at NPC Labs to power the next generation of games on chain!
Today, NPC Labs is thrilled to announce our $21 million in Seed + pre-Seed funding to support a simple mission: to restore economic freedom for game developers and players alike. We believe the way to onboard the masses is through fun and sticky casual and hyper-casual games. We are accelerating the onboarding and development of gaming onchain as a core contributor to B3.fun, a groundbreaking horizontally-scaled gaming ecosystem built on Base. Our focus here is two-fold: 1) bring talented Web2 gaming developers onchain, and 2) create a seamless and fun user experience. For devs, we are contributing to unique infrastructure that gives them full control over everything — from publishing to revenue generation and growth. For gamers, we will meet users where they are at and remove crypto barriers to entry. Thank you to our investors, notably Pantera Capital, Makers Fund, Hashed, Collab+Currency, Sfermion, Mirana Ventures, Bitscale Capital, Mantle Network EcoFund, as well as our angel investors for their support. We had a chance to speak with Dean Takahashi at VentureBeat on our origins and our vision for the future.

UPDATE: the first public playtest of SUPERVIVE made the Top 10 on Twitch, and we're just getting started! 🔥 ⚡Announcing SUPERVIVE! In a sea of sequels, legacy franchises, and updates, SUPERVIVE is something fresh: a neon-apocalyptic hero BR and a big new challenge for competitive squads. This isn't your typical game reveal. We’ve got big dreams for our flagship title and we’re running a very different go-to-market playbook – building in public with the community and creators. That means every playtest from here until Open Beta is going to be a party as we learn from players in the wild and push the limits of SUPERVIVE even further 🚀 Pre-register at playsupervive.com, and watch Twitch streams during the upcoming playtest for your best shot at nabbing an alpha key (and a Boosted emote which I intend to spam relentlessly). Proud to be on this journey with the excellent people at Theorycraft Games and our talented partners.

"But as it stands, there’s no other MOBA-like game out there now that allows you to “Falcon punch” an opponent into a moving train. And for that experience alone, everyone should give it a go." Thanks for coming out to play Rolling Stone! We snuck Chris into one of our morning developer playtests to check things out. https://lnkd.in/giJ3a-ET
