Build Better Games: PixelRealm Integrates Neon EVM for Superior Web3 Gaming

🎮 Ready to level up, Neonauts!?! We’ve got something epic to share!

We are thrilled to announce that PixelRealm, a web3 gaming ecosystem dedicated to the incubation and acceleration of blockchain games, has officially integrated support for Neon EVM. That’s right—two powerhouses are collaborating to bring a new era of Web3 gaming to the Neon EVM network. This collaboration marks a significant leap forward for game development, onboarding, and unlocking new possibilities for builders and players alike.

And as we get ready for some serious fun, innovation, and a whole lot of action, allow us to introduce PixelRealm to you before we checkmate, anon:

What is PixelRealm?

PixelRealm is a platform where innovation meets gameplay: a go-to spot for web3 gamers, developers, and everyone who wants to leverage PixelRealm expertise to their advantage. Designed to support the next generation of blockchain games, PixelRealm provides the tools, resources, incubation, and gaming community support needed to bring visionary gaming projects to life. This means faster, smoother, and more engaging experiences for both developers and players. dApps looking to deploy on Neon EVM now have an opportunity to avail their high-quality expertise.

By integrating with Neon EVM and making its entry into the Solana native environment, PixelRealm is taking a bold step to ensure that the games are not only built on a solid foundation but also accessible to a broader audience across the blockchain gaming world.

For Neon EVM, PixelRealm is the first gaming-oriented web3 ecosystem, and we recognize the importance of supporting new builders in the initial phases of their start-up venture. Forbes, too, highlights this very rightly in their article “How Incubators And Accelerators Are Shaking Up The Web3 Startup Scene.” Incubators and accelerators recognize that mere financial infusion into "the next big thing" does not consistently translate into achievement. Their value proposition encompasses far more, extending guidance and support across these aforementioned dimensions.

PixelRealm agrees and focuses on important tech aspects that make for a winning gaming value proposition, including its collaboration with Neon EVM:

Samuel Plesnik, CEO of PixelRealm, says, “At PixelRealm, our mission is to bridge the gap between traditional gaming and web3 technologies. Deploying on the Neon EVM network allows us to offer high-speed, low-fee gaming experiences that are essential to mainstream adoption. And let’s not forget the developers. We need a developer-friendly ‘plug EVM to Solana and play’ environment.” Plesnik further highlights the importance of this alliance, adding that “the frictionless EVM compatibility with Solana through Neon EVM isn't just innovation; it's a necessity for the evolution in web3 gaming."

What are the benefits of PixelRealm and Neon EVM for web3 gaming?

The most important benefit: Access to Solana Environment — the Ultimate Blockchain Gaming Playground!!

Let’s talk about Solana—home to a fast-growing, vibrant, and fun gaming community in the blockchain space. The Solana environment is a haven for developers and gamers alike, offering unparalleled speed, scalability, and a thriving ecosystem. It’s no wonder that PixelRealm, initially rooted in the Ethereum-native environment, set its sights on Solana. But there is a catch—transitioning to Solana meant rewriting everything in Rust, which could have been a massive hurdle 🤯

That’s where Neon EVM comes in with its unique value to bring a native Solana experience for PixelRealm. Neon EVM is the first parallel EVM on Solana Mainnet and allows dApps to deploy their existing Ethereum-native codes to Solana without Rust. With Neon EVM, developers can deploy Ethereum dApps on Solana, taking advantage of the speed, low fees, and scalability that Solana offers—all while keeping their existing codebase intact.

For PixelRealm, this means they could seamlessly allow Ethereum-native games to access the Solana ecosystem without rewriting their code in Rust.

What Does This Mean for the Gaming Industry?

Here’s how this will be beneficial for blockchain games:

• Incubation of innovative games: PixelRealm helps incubate a wide range of exciting games in all categories, including casual mobile, card, trading, skill-based, meta, PVP, and many more. Games will be able to avail support across ideation, MVP, game development, funding, tech support and tools and access to community and users. Spoiler alert: In a very green universe, a little big-eyed creature hatched outta an egg and ate something red…and I heard it say ‘tis the partnership that incubated me…..Well! you did not hear it from me but do keep an eye on our X for more.
  
• Enhanced player experience: With Neon EVM, players can expect faster, more secure, and more engaging gaming experiences with lower transaction costs and greater scalability since Neon EVM is built on Solana and harnesses all Solana-native benefits.
  
• Broader access and inclusivity:This collaboration opens frontiers for games in the Ethereum to explore beyond into the Solana environment, ensuring that these innovative games are accessible to a wider audience and fostering a more inclusive gaming community.

What’s Next?

The integration is just the beginning. We are excited to see the incredible games that will emerge from this collaboration, and we can’t wait to share them with you. Whether you’re a developer with a vision for the next big game or a player eager to explore new worlds, PixelRealm and Neon EVM have something for you. Join us on this journey to redefine the future of gaming in the Web3 space.
