NFT on Game Boy: Blockchain Innovation in the Gaming World
The world of cryptocurrency and blockchain has accustomed us to seeing and using protocols, dApps and video games that once seemed out of reach.
As we know, the complexity of creating interesting products and the lack of a solid and affordable foundation to build on were once major obstacles.
However, NFTs have been opened up new prospects for the large-scale adoption of blockchain, and this sector has gradually begun to expand and embrace other areas outside of art, such as music, film and especially video games.
And it is precisely in the world of video games that we witness fascinating and innovative dynamics such as “play to earn”, gaming objects expressed as NFTs and digital marketplaces based on such tokens.
Now, as expected, another important novelty has emerged: an NFT blockchain video game called “Leap to NFT”, created for the famous Game Boy to console.
In the specific case of the Game Boy, we see that the operation will be based on playing a special video game that will ultimately allow the player to obtain a special NFT. As stated in the press release, this NFT will include the following exclusive content.
The brain behind this unique project is the Italian startup Hoken Techwhich has a solid presence in NFTs and blockchain-based video game creation.
The startup also has other exclusive projects to its credit and was recently prominently featured on DigithOn 2023together with the 100 best Italian startups.
It should be noted that this is a video game developed specifically for a physical console, which also requires a specific cartridge made specifically for the game. However, the team has generously decided to give everyone the chance to play this extraordinary experience and acquire the associated NFT.
Leap to NFT: an innovative video game distributed by NFT
We also see that by connecting to the dedicated Leap to NFT page on Itch, users will be able to play this video game directly through the browser on both PCs and smartphones.
The simple interface makes the experience accessible to everyoneand those who complete the video game will be rewarded with an NFT.
In terms of the technology used, the video game is based on the EOS blockchain. Once players complete the experience, they can confirm the transaction with their wallet (Anchor wallet) to receive the corresponding NFT and discover its secret contents.
This is certainly an extraordinary video game, with an accessible learning curve and an innovative element never seen before. This title brings a breath of fresh air to the world of blockchain-based video games and NFTs.
Google allows ads for NFT games, but with some restrictions
NFT-based games are about to get a big boost thanks to Google’s announcement of an update to its advertising policies.
In a post on its blog, the tech giant confirmed that the new update, which will come into effect on September 15, will allow NFT games to be advertised.
However, Google has set a condition that such advertisements are only allowed if they do not promote any form of gambling or related services.
In its advertising policy update, Google is therefore maintaining its ban on ads for games that promote NFT gambling, whether against other players or for prizes such as NFT or cryptocurrency.
The same goes for the ban on social casino games such as poker and roulette, which reward players with real prizes betting on NFTstays in place.
The company also announced that anyone wishing to serve ads related to NFT gambling must comply with Google’s Gambling & Gambling Policies and apply the appropriate Google Ads approval.
Finally, Google requires all advertisers to comply with local laws in the regions where they plan to target their ads. Finally, this new policy applies to all Google users worldwide.
