It's good to see the diversity of different activities taking shape on the STEEM platform. A way to play games and earn STEEM as well as develop them and do likewise is a great idea. I'll be looking forward to seeing what games are available. How many games will you have up and running when the site launches?

Right now there is only two lined up. We hope to get game devs in to upload games they have made earlier or freshly made ones as soon as possible
Hey, @stabilowl. Thanks for the response. Two is better than none, obviously, and it sounds like you're going to have more soon, so that's good, too. I'm excited to see how this all goes.
So, you've got some retro-game looking graphics on your post. Is that what the games are going to be looking like, or will they potentially be in much higher res? Not that it matters much to me. High res doesn't necessarily equate to fun or better gaming experience. I was just curious because that was the vibe I got from the graphics as I was reading the post.
Thank you for your interest. Html5 games are usually retro style, because it's main advantage is the short loading time and being able to run straight from browser, so the obvious trade off is the graphics quality. The current status of html5 games seems to be more favoured to a large quantity of quick, short casual games. However, there are H5 games with beautiful graphics out there, and we hope to bring more of that out as game devs can focus more on game design by using our platform. We are also planning to make our own game design SDK, so that developers can develop higher quality games, tied to the blockchain, using our platform.
Very nice. Well, thank you for answering all my questions. I wish you luck and I will be checking things out as they become available.
