'Stardust' is a new Metaverse-targetted, Web3 platform that specializes in creating solutions to integrate blockchain services, such as NFTs, into video games. Its most recent partnership is with 'Tilting Point,' and indie game developer for mobile devices. Tilting Point previous created games with a free-to-play, in-game transaction model. The company is now moving to a play-to-earn model where players can win NFTs through in-game competition.
Stardust and Tilting Point have launched a collaborative initiative to bridge the gap between Web2 gaming and Web3 gaming. With this change, the developer hopes to maintain and grow its player base while educating its players on the benefits of the blockchain, and the viability of using the blockchain for in-game collectibles and rewards. Tilting Point currently operates with more than 35 industry partners, meaning NFT integration may soon become quite common in the mobile game industry.
