Blockchain platform creates an infrastructure for video game developers to incorporate NFTs

SuperFarm, a protocol that allows anyone to deploy crypto and NFT ‘farms’ with no code required, has announced the closing of their first private fundraising round of $1.1M lead by from Bitcoin.com, Spark Digital Capital, GBV Capital, Solidity Ventures, and Animoca Brands. The company’s mission is to help Non Fungible Tokens (NFTs) usher in billions of users through the gaming industry (which has 2.5 billion active users alone), the entertainment industry as well as decentralized finance (DeFi).

SuperFarm’s first use case is to provide the larger cryptocurrency ecosystem the tools needed to add utility to their tokens through NFT Farming with no technical barriers. NFT Farming is a recent phenomenon spawned out of the DeFi bull run in 2020, and allows for new value to be rewarded to token stakers that is non dilutive. The platform already has generated dramatic hype and anticipation from the industry’s most influential content creators.

Utility in gaming is critical, as the next generation cares as much, in not more, about their digital experiences than they do about their real-life experiences. NFTs offer a way for video games to unlock characters and experiences within video games, giving them true utility.

Video Games represent the perfect funnel for blockchain to reach their first billion users. Right now there are over 2.5 billion gamers worldwide who are constantly buying in-game digital assets worth over $100 billion that have no value outside of the digital world. These gamers are hyper-connected, technically savvy, and are dedicated to their games. If major games like Call of Duty or Fortnight had NFTs, every kid under 15 would know how to work an Ethereum address like the back of their hand. This is how we get to mass adoption.” Elliot Wainman, CEO of Superfarm.

SuperFarm is giving tokenized ecosystems across the entire crypto space a simple and effective toolkit they can use to elevate the value of their own token, as well as a throughline to mainstream gaming. The goal is to provide utility today for tokens that might not have utility for months, years, or ever, and push the DeFi and NFT narrative forward as the best case for the first wave of mass adoption of blockchain technology.

Innovative indie developer invites players to stack up towering wins in an all-new cyber punk-themed slot released via the SwinttStudios partnership programme

Get ready to hit the neon streets of a space age city in Babel Builder Accumulator – the new cyber punk-themed slot from up-and-coming software provider, Samurai Studio, where scaling towering megastructures can lead to colossal wins of up to 8,082x the bet.

The third Samurai Studio game to be released via the pioneering SwinttStudios programme, Babel Builder Accumulator is a five-reel, 20-payline slot set in a gritty, urban landscape. Featuring a pulse-racing, techno-inspired soundtrack and high-tech cast of androids and augmented humans as its symbols, the game really does an outstanding job of conveying a dystopian future.

Of course, this rampant advancement of technology is not without its perks – and Babel Builder Accumulator boasts a couple of standout features to help players stay ahead of the game. First of all, on any given spin Mirror Reels can trigger to turn two or more columns into identical copies of each other, significantly boosting the odds of landing multiple matching payout combinations.

Secondly, landing three or more scatter symbols in any position will activate the Accumulator Bonus. Whenever this happens, players will be granted three free re-spins with an initial in-game multiplier of 1x, 3x or 5x depending on the number of triggering scatters. With the reels now only displaying prize symbols worth between 1x and 50x the selected bet, whenever players land a prize, not only will the re-spin counter reset, but they’ll also fill one section of the progress metre.

Once six sections have been completed, a random multiplier of 1x, 3x or 5x will be added to the accumulator total – which can reach a maximum of 30x – with this process repeating until no new prizes arrive and the re-spin counter hits zero. In this manner, the feature can be prolonged indefinitely for truly epic wins, and players can also enter the bonus directly for an additional bet.

David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “We’ve already been treated to some incredible releases from Samurai Studio – and Babel Builder Accumulator might be the best yet!

“Featuring an eye-catching cyber punk aesthetic, atmospheric soundtrack and an incomparable Accumulator Bonus where players can scale their way to maximum wins of 8,082x their bet, the game really does have all the makings of a modern slot and we’re delighted to be able to use our existing network of casino partners to help Samurai Studio reach new audiences worldwide.”
