Well, folks, it seems like just a few months after its grand debut, the Ethereum-based game Ember Sword has decided to take an early retirement. Yes, you heard it right! The team behind this blockchain beauty announced it’s shutting down due to a little thing called “lack of funding.” You know, that pesky detail that keeps dreams from becoming reality. 💸
On their official website, the developers of this massively multiplayer online role-playing game (or MMORPG, if you’re feeling fancy) posted a heartfelt message to players and supporters. They basically said, “We tried everything, but in today’s market—where even the most promising projects are going belly up—we just couldn’t find a way to keep the lights on.” Talk about a plot twist! 📉
Ember Sword is now part of the exclusive club of web3 games that have shut down this year, joining the likes of Deadrop, Nyan Heroes, and Tatsumeeko. It’s like a sad game of musical chairs, and guess what? No one’s left standing! 🎶
Last December, the game had just launched its public early access after moving to the layer-2 network Mantle. It even jumped ship from the Polygon ecosystem to Immutable X. But alas, it seems the official launch is now just a distant dream, like my hopes of winning the lottery. 🎰
In a touching farewell, the team said, “This isn’t the ending any of us wanted. But we sincerely thank you for being here, for believing in this vision, and for helping make Ember Sword something we’ll never forget.” Aww, group hug! 🤗
As of now, the game’s native token, EMBER, has seen about as much action as a sloth on a Sunday, plummeting by 3% in the last 24 hours. Its current price? A whopping $0.00047! That’s right, folks, it’s down more than 99% from its initial peak of $0.068. Talk about a rollercoaster ride! 🎢
Back in 2021, this game was the talk of the town, raking in $203 million in NFT land sales from 35,000 players. Now, it’s like that one-hit-wonder you can’t quite remember the name of. 🎤
The developer team included some big names, like Rob Pardo, former chief creative officer at Blizzard Entertainment, and Dennis “Thresh” Fong, a retired esports player. So, what happened, guys? Did you forget to check the funding meter? 🤔
