Going Mobile
The mobile gaming wizards at Ember Entertainment are now part of the Gala Games family, and they’re bringing their whole portfolio of awesome mobile games to our growing ecosystem.
Little Computers
PC and console gaming has come a long way in the past few decades. Many of the experts on the Gala Games team were direct contributors to those innovations, so they could probably tell you first hand in Discord.
Even the incredible growth of PC gaming doesn’t compare to the growth of its little bro. Mobile gaming has come a long, long way since GameBoy and Nokia Snake.
Phones have become the most comfortable and convenient entertainment device we have ever known, and they’re literally at our fingertips.
Most of us have seen with our own eyes how much time people spend waiting, and we’ve observed how enraptured they can become with the sophisticated-yet-simple rectangle in their hands.
Importance of Mobile Gaming
Gaming experiences on mobile devices have become sleeker, faster, and more convenient than PC and console gamers may even know. New systems have blurred the line between mobile and console, sharing the advantages of mobile gaming with console gamers.
Complex supply chains, rising materials costs and delicately balanced national economies make it less feasible each year to even own a personal computer or a laptop. Besides, any recent smartphone can do everything a computer can do, and it’s much easier to get your hands on. Additionally, thanks to wireless internet service providers, these devices can keep us connected even in remote locations.
Why is mobile gaming so important? Simply, because it is the way…
- to onboard massive numbers of new users to Web3 gaming.
- to build a sustainable ecosystem with rewarding games for all types of players.
- to empower people through play, even in life’s duller moments of waiting.
- to give everyone all over the world a chance to empower themselves.
- to publish new high-quality games very quickly.
A Bunch of New Games
As many of you already know, the team at Ember Entertainment created The Walking Dead Empires. What you may not know is that Ember has a successful portfolio of mobile games, and Gala Games’ acquisition of Ember means those mobile games will soon be Gala Games.
Plans are now in motion to bring in all of Ember Entertainment’s mobile games to Gala Games, incorporating Web3 reward economies and releasing them in rapid succession.
“If I asked the team to build 15 complete mobile games, that might take 9–12 months per game”
