Blockxer

Our response to the crypto meme craze: an NFT-powered game.

What

A homegrown, retro-style 2D beat ’em-up game, designed with a seamless crypto wallet onboarding experience, proving that NFTs can kick ass.

How

A crazy idea in a Thursday morning meeting became a storyboard, which became a wireframe, which became a fully-fledged game, powered by NFTs and built for... fun.

Why

Because we love video games, and we know blockchain inside-out. We saw a golden opportunity to build an addictive, crypto-powered beat 'em-up that gamers wouldn’t shitpost.

Crypto goes retro in Blockxer – the first ever NFT-powered arcade game, putting players in control.

Blockxer was created as a tribute to 1990s arcade ‘beat em-ups,’ but with a twist: It’s a dynamic, NFT-powered game themed around well-known crypto memes, where players face off against street thugs, villains and rug-pullers. In Blockxer, everything is an NFT. Your hero character? An NFT. The scenery artwork? Also an NFT. Even the knife you pick up on the street to fight villains with – you guessed it, an NFT. And just like blockchain technology, Blockxer is designed to evolve. The game is expandable, allowing for new levels, characters, backgrounds, and more to be created and added by the community.
