Introduction
Blockchain and Smart Contracts open many doors to new decentralized businesses and eliminates the need for expensive third parties. Many new companies are now working on this technology, and large companies are testing it in closed networks to collaborate directly with each other without the need for intermediaries.
The launch of digital distribution platforms such as Apple's iOS App Store and Google Play have contributed to the rise of independent game studios. However, established studios with large reserves and connections began to enter the market, making independent game studios have problems with the increase in CPI (Cost per installation) and the F2P (Free-to-Play) Games competition.
The situation has been aggravated by high fees (30% of revenues) from platform providers that reduce developer margins. The promoters have also complained about the lack of transparency, inefficiency in the calculation and distribution of payments.
Blockchain technologies offer a decentralized, efficient, open and transparent payment system that can be adopted in a gaming platform, benefiting both developers and players.
For this reason, I want to introduce you Play Game (PXG), the first decentralized Crypto Arcade Playground that uses blockchain technology to offer a simple, world-class solution for game developers to fund their incredible projects, where developers can launch a game without relying on retail.
