Gm and welcome to The WASD Weekly!

I know I must sound like a broken record by now – But it was yet another exciting week for onchain games.

Loot Survivor launched a 72-hour tournament. $1K is on the line for whoever gets the highest score.

Just weeks after releasing Nova Chess, Paima is at it again. The studio dropped a new strategy game called Hexlands.

Finally, Dojo continued to make moves, as they held their second hackathon (the Dojo Game Jam) and announced their Ninja School event for Devconnect.

These and other milestones may not generate the sexiest headlines.

But they are helping lay the groundwork to support the inevitable wave of new onchain gamers.

In terms of my weekend, I will be touching some grass.

(FaultProofBen touching grass?! Stop the presses!)

However, I can’t quit onchain games for too long, so I also plan to spend some time playing Cellula.

Cellula is an artificial life simulator game that caught my attention after I watched their presentation from the latest MUD Community Demo Call.

I’ve completed their tutorial, but I haven’t been able to go any further since I’m still working on sourcing some Optimism Goerli ETH.

So, I don’t have many thoughts on Cellula’s gameplay yet.

But I have to say that I LOVE their soundtrack. I’d recommend checking out Cellula for that reason alone.

Anyways, without further ado, here’s:
