Cardano-Oriented GameFi Startup Joins Microsoft’s Web3 Program

Paima Studios, a Cardano and Milkomeda-focused GameFi project, will take part in a new Web3 initiative from Microsoft, it has been revealed. In particular, the studio will join the tech giant's startup program to help Japanese game developers and Web3 entrepreneurs deploy the Paima Engine in their applications.

Paima Engine is the studio's key development, the engine on which it builds its games. In addition to being a blockchain gaming engine, its competitive advantage over other rare representatives of the sphere is the ability to create blockchain games as complete Layer 2 solutions.

That is, by relying on the Paima Engine, game developers can create games in any programming language while avoiding the complexities of blockchain integration. The result is games built as open and trustless blockchain protocols that leverage advanced scalability technologies.

Microsoft Startups' representative Yuhong Chen responded by welcoming the new entrant to the program. Cardano's founder, Charles Hoskinson, also expressed his support for Paima Studios' recent achievement.

    Cardano (ADA) is a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) Layer-1 smart contract network launched in 2017. Cardano aims to provide security, scalability, and sustainability to decentralized applications and systems building on top of the blockchain. In addition to the community of developers, node operators, and projects, Cardano is supported by multiple entities: Input Output Global (IOG), dcSpark, MLabs, The Cardano Foundation, EMURGO, and more. They work together to support the network’s development, adoption, and finances while Cardano moves toward the age of Voltaire.

  • Game Theory and Consumer Crypto

    One question that I often get when discussing consumer app ideas leveraging crypto is “does this really have to be in web3”? This often leads to an exposition on how building a web2 counterpart would be substantially difficult or simply not work. The intention of this post is to provide a comprehensive analysis on game theory and its applications in web3. Game theory is a more generalized approach and covers governance, token models, decentralization et al. I believe this new framework can be leveraged to build powerful applications. The right incentives can propel the society in a good direction.
  • From Players to Gods: Games & Autonomous Worlds

    Gaming has always operated at the absolute cutting edge of technology. The earliest video games (think Pong, Space Invaders, Doom, Quake) were deceptively simple, but pushed the limits of early computer graphics and network capabilities—eventually birthing companies like NVIDIA, which would go on to revolutionize not only the gaming industry, but technology entirely. Gaming continues to be a meaningful playground for frontier technologies today, from AI/ML to blockchains to VR/AR. However, to understand exactly where and how these technologies can fundamentally improve games requires a first principles understanding of games themselves. In this post, I’d like to deconstruct the elements of a game and explore opportunities to actually make them more immersive and ultimately, fun.
