Oh Baby Games: The first web3 gaming platform modeled on the crypto community

Since Nintendo released its first Mario Kart game in 1992, the Mario Kart series has been a staple of Mr. Ren's social racing games. Thanks to its simple gameplay and pairing with Mario's classic cast of characters, the series, now in its eighth edition, has been a huge success, surpassing Electronic Arts' Need for Speed series to become the best-selling go-kart game of all time.

But for more than a decade, the kart game has not been a big innovation, it is difficult to attract more racing game fans. Now Oh Baby Games, a blockchain gaming platform based in Australia, is taking the go-kart genre to a new level.

What The Kart

Oh Baby Games' first version of a go-kart game is What The Kart, which will be based on a beloved and renowned character or KOL from CryptoTwitter, the crypto community on Twitter, Inversebrah, CL, Gainzy, Pentoshi, Cobie, and others use their stories for game content design.

Pas Tran, founder of Oh Baby Games, said he was fascinated by CryptoTwitter, a dedicated community with a wealth of encryption knowledge, characters and stories. Games are a great way to tell a story, and Oh Baby Games will be able to take advantage of existing encrypted IP and turn it into content design in the game so that players can play as their avatars.

And, in addition to introducing familiar crypto faces and gameplay, the game plans to add garage personalization, go-kart equipment modifications, and a "storytelling" track. Kart rides in the Game are free, and Oh Baby Games will monetize through tournaments, skins and Cross Game Collectibles sales.

Oh Baby Games platform architecture

Competition is at the heart of a thriving community, so Oh Baby Games has adopted a flexible tournament model: anyone can host a tournament, no matter the game maker, community or anchor, and then showcase their brand within the game. Tournaments can also be as simple as a challenge to beat points or times in a game, with players paying to enter for prize money.

Cross-game collectibles will also be a very important part of its launch strategy, which will greatly increase the game's composability, allowing players to use their virtual assets across multiple Games, and Oh Baby Games also offers multi-login support and all the tools needed to launch games for game developers.

Also, the platform allows users to create their own in-game items, which they can then resell as NFT. Through this incentive mechanism, user-generated content will greatly increase the richness and creativity of the game.

Oh Baby Games, on the other hand, has dynamic rewards based on player achievement. Players' accounts will be able to maintain titles and achievements across seasons and games on the platform, but the rewards unlocked in the process are tradeable. The platform also keeps the option for players to get rare unlocks that will change dynamically in future seasons or be traded on the market.

The other two games

Next up, Oh Baby Games will release two more games later this year: Rug pull Guys (rug pulling) and Shogun Curse (Shogunate Curse), both developed by game veterans on its team. The former is inspired by the casual hit Fall Guys, where players try to beat each other in a contest by pulling out each other's rugs and knocking them over, a party game that can be played with friends or strangers around the world.

Shogun Curse, on the other hand, is a platformer fighting game similar to Super Smash Bros. It's also a fast-paced rogue-like card battle that changes depending on the path you choose, and no path is the same. Camps also evolve depending on the player's choices, so it's a matter of choosing wisely to find the source of the curse and the cause of the army's retaliation.
