Gm and welcome to The WASD Weekly!

Devconnect is right around the corner – And onchain games are heading into the event with a full head of steam.

This week was filled with a TON new game releases, as Primodium launched new updates, the full-version of Loot Survivor dropped on Starknet, Bid Tac Toe went live on Polygon and Cambria released their beta on Base.

We even had a major infrastructure launch as I was writing this piece, with Curio releasing Keystone, their framework for building onchain gaming optimized L2s.

As you can see, onchain games are popping off.

Despite this being my full time job, it’s now quite difficult to keep tabs on everything happening in the ecosystem.

It’s bittersweet – But a giga-bullish sign for the future of the space.
