Slingshot DAO represents a decentralized gaming platform designed to empower game creators and the gaming community by integrating blockchain technology and traditional gaming. Game creators can use the Slingshot platform to submit their game ideas and harness the platform’s technical team to build the game. But from the game conception to development, the community plays a decisive role, participating in voting through Slingshot DAO. Most popular game ideas will also receive funding through crowdsourcing and community support. 

Highlights of the Recently Held SlingShot DAO AMA

The SlingShot team and DaddyPhil (Brand Strategist and Researcher) held an AMA with multiple speakers on 31st Oct to talk about the Future of Crowdsourced Gaming, which is a primary aspect of SlingShot DAO. The AMA went on for about one hour, and here are the key points discussed in the conversation. 

• Can crowdsourcing in gaming work? The AMA discussed how the community can significantly shape a game’s development funding process while empowering players to actively participate in the decision making process. The discussions included how community engagement can influence game development and how blockchain tokens can be used in the process. 
• Difference between web2 and web3 Gaming: Discussions were held on the distinction between traditional and blockchain-based gaming. Topics of this discussion included differences in technology between the two and how the funding methods can be different for them along with the level of player participation and involvement. The speakers, with reference to this point, discussed the necessary elements for developing engaging games and how game developers can proactively harness community support for game funding. A part of the discussion was whether Web3 gaming is more challenging than web2 primarily because of the less established standard practices. 
• Storytelling, Narratives, and Funding in Game Development: Halfways in the AMA, the panel discussed the importance of interest-grabbing storytelling and how narratives can play an important role in a game’s development and adoption. Moreover, Web3’s decentralized nature was highlighted, which is considered as a critical advantage in enabling innovative project funding. 

In addition to this, the AMA focused on SlingShot’s structure, community involvement, and the importance of balancing fun and technology in game design and development. 

How SlingShot DAO Brings the Next Version of Game Development?

SlingShot DAO aims to improve game development by giving the power of decision-making directly into the hands of the community. Using the $SLING token, gamers can become creators and stakeholders benefiting from a collaborative ecosystem. $SLING holders are not only participants of the ecosystem, they are also stakeholders who can earn rewards and participate in the game’s development journey. 

1. Pitch Game Ideas and Vote: Anyone from the community can pitch their ideas and game concepts using their power from holding $SLING tokens. This will ensure only the most popular and community-accepted ideas will move forward into the development stage. This will make sure that game concepts and ideas that receive community acceptance go into development.  
2. Collaborative Game Development: Community-approved game ideas will get SlingShot DAO’s support. The platform’s team will provide support to complete the development process, incorporating player feedback, which ensures higher engagement and success.  
3. Decentralized Ownership: All games developed under the SlingShot DAO umbrella are logged as SlingShot IP. This makes every game a community-owned asset and it works in a community-driven structure. This means the community shares the success of a game’s evolution from idea to concept to mass adoption. Moreover, these games can also be expanded further to create movies and merchandise. 

SlingShot DAO is a community-led innovation-friendly platform allowing players of all kinds to create a wholesome ecosystem. Game creators will have access to community and technical support, while the contributors to game development by holding $SLING benefit from profit-sharing and IP rights. 

The platform focuses on long-term growth over short-term gains. Working with a community-driven approach, SlingShot DAO contributes to building a stronger foundation for the future.
