Why B3?
Despite gaming’s record-breaking revenue and massive cultural presence, it feels as though innovation has stalled.
We’re not seeing bold new ideas or creative risk-taking but, instead, a steady flow of remakes, sequels, and mobile games that lean on the same tired mechanics.
Gaming, as an industry, is playing it safe. Gaming should always feel like it’s moving forward, but instead, it feels like we’re treading water. Why?
A few core reasons underpin this stagnation:
Distribution
Dominated by app stores and trad-publishers, which control access to audiences, siphoning revenue through high platform fees and forcing developers into restrictive ecosystems.
Funding
Traditional publishers are risk-averse, unwilling to invest in unproven ideas, which stifles creativity and pushes studios toward safe, predictable titles.
Funding
Many developers are stuck in legacy systems or walled gardens, locked into tech stacks and platforms that limit flexibility and innovation.
It’s time for a change.
Enter Open Gaming
Open Gaming is a vision of a secure, scalable, onchain gaming ecosystem that restores economic and creative freedom to game developers and players. Settled on B3 and secured by Base, Open Gaming presents itself as an antidote to Big Gaming and their outsized influence that have stifled innovation and constrained the industry’s growth.
