I’m not here to defend the industry or excuse any behaviour. I’m here to point out reality.
Games are the hardest digital products to build and the one that takes the most time.
A real AA game takes ~4 years with 50 to 150 people and $10M to $50M. AAA goes 5 to 7 years, 300 to 1000+ developers, $50M to $300M+.
A proper game requires, ux/ui, game design, 3D, animations, engineering, economy, sounds, vfxs…
It's the whole digital product stack in one.
You're not just building a website: marketplace, perps, dex, predictions market… that can be updated on the fly in minutes and you just need ux/ui design and engineering.
Fortnite started around 2011 and only found its breakout moment in 2017. That is ~6 years of development and iteration before it became a global hit, followed by constant live ops with a massive team.
Roblox launched in 2006 and has been compounding ever since. Nearly two decades of building tech, community, and creator economy before reaching its current scale.
Now layer crypto on top. New tech, most on beta, new behavior, unclear rules, noise everywhere, insane hacks. Development slows down while expectations speed up.
Our game @MixMobRacer1 was one of the first games to be approved in the app stores. It took us 3-4 months of rejections and KYC before they approved it as a crypto game.
Crypto as we know it today, doesn't have the patience or foundation to foster good games. Capital and support came in fast and disappeared just as fast.
The market followed money and attention.
During bull cycles, weak or fake products with hyped narratives look strong.
When capital dries up, only products with real engagement remain.
93% “dead” is not surprising.
Most Web3 games didn’t even make it to year 2.
Most of these projects never had the time, capital, or execution required to become real games.
Cycles like this shake out what wasn’t built to last and leave the people who keep building.
We’ve been building @MixMobRacer1 through all the cycles.
Still here, actual fun game, with actual players and value.
