An Early Spring Project Update!

Arcade Updates

To make Aviator Arcade even easier to use, we will soon add support for game payments made in ETH and USDC on Base! In the background, this ETH or USDC will be used to automatically buy AVI every time a game is played on the Arcade.

To grow Aviator Arcade into a larger platform, we're enhancing social features such as comments, enhanced user profiles, and connections to other social media platforms. This will allow users to fully customize their profiles and share them easily, with planned features coming that will make their Aviator Arcade account function like a social media profile.

For developers, we are building out new features in the Unity plugin and expanding support for more game engines. Stay tuned for more details on what to expect!

We're also adding support for new blockchains! Later this year, you will be able to play with your wallet from more than just Base! Which chains would you like to see? 🌍🌎🌏 Let us know with a DAO proposal!

Pioneer Developer Program

Remember the Pioneer Developer Program? The deadline to submit your games to qualify for the program is coming fast! Developers who publish their first game on Aviator Arcade by May 31st, 2025, at 11:59pm EDT will be eligible to receive a special NFT, which will grant them a permanent 5% rewards boost.

Recent Gaming Partnerships

We recently closed a partnership with Tokiemon, one of the top games on Base right now, to add a custom AVI character into their game. Check out our joint announcement here:

Another Based Game Night

Recently, we were thrilled to be invited back as the first repeat guest on Based Game Night during session number four! Check out the recording below if you missed it, and be sure to watch the Q&A section at the end for some interesting stuff. 👀

SkyBridge V2 Updates

So what have we been up to on the SkyBridge front? So much—let's dive in.

We are currently in the final round of voting for the Stellar Community Fund SCF Build round #35! This has been in the works since ETHDenver back in February, and we are very proud of how far we have come since then. Honored with the invitation to apply, we have been enjoying the support of their team, community, and developers. Thank you for all your continued support! (Note: SCF awards voting is not open to the public.)

New Features Alert!

SkyBridge Version 2.0 takes advantage of the diamond proxy pattern, which enables unparalleled modularity through the use of facets. Facets allow easy upgradeability of individual components or the addition of new features without the need for refactoring.

SkyBridge V2 will also have its own set of social features, including a direct link to your Aviator Arcade account, to create unified multichain leaderboards for game titles, multichain encrypted chat, unified incentive granting, global discounts, omnichain NFT ticketing, ENS/Basenames/Unstoppable Domains support, and general multichain digital asset management as a one-stop shop for all your digital assets.

Democratizing Liquidity

Each reward pool allows stakers to democratically set their own rewards and fee rates on a per-asset basis, decentralizing liquidity control and allowing individual pools to function as their own rewards DAOs. We plan to allow original asset issuers to "claim" these DAOs by verifying contract ownership if they want to partner together for multichain support, or add custom incentives or plugins on SkyBridge.

Did I read that right? Plugins? Yes. ✅

SkyBridge V2 will support the use of third-party plugins to interact with our API endpoints. We plan to use our DAO to offer small to medium-sized grants to builders who build and utilize great plugins for SkyBridge and create innovative titles on Aviator Arcade. Stay tuned for more info!

Community Events

Now that Aviator Arcade is in full swing, we're amping up our community events schedule! We've been enjoying having high score competitions so far, and look forward to continuing to host new competitive trials! With 40+ games available on Aviator Arcade, the possibilities are endless.

Additionally, we're happy to announce our last Galxe quest for SkyBridge hit 10,000 participants! 🎉 We will soon be launching another quest: this time for Aviator Arcade!
