rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Alto.io</a>, a decentralized platform empowering the entire games ecosystem to mint, use, and sell cryptoitems on the blockchain. As part of the partnership, FlowPlay will advise Alto.io on market challenges and opportunities while exploring the use of Alto.io's blockchain-based game items within its suite of current and future games. With more than a decade spent growing FlowPlay into an established, mid-sized developer of free-to-play games and technology, the company is well suited to support Alto.io in its mission to level the playing field for smaller developers and disrupt the free-to-play model. </p>
<p>In today's saturated games industry dominated by major publishers with significant marketing budgets, very few free-to-play titles ever become financially viable. This is especially poignant in the mobile games market, where just 1 percent of App Store game publishers make 94 percent of the profits, according to Sensor Tower. With the rise of blockchain, a new opportunity for indie game developers and small studios has emerged to decentralize distribution, ownership, and ultimately marketing and user acquisition costs. Alto.io is one of the first to tackle the challenge of connecting games to the blockchain by introducing an item-first ecosystem, which enables the creation of interoperable virtual game items â such as characters and equipment â that players can use within any game that is part of the ecosystem. </p><th class="expander" style="Margin:0;color:#0a0a0a;font-family:Montserrat,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:16px;font-weight:400;line-height:1.3;margin:0;padding:0!important;text-align:left;visibility:hidden;width:0"></th></tr></table></th></tr></tbody></table><table class="row content" style="background:#fff;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0;display:table;padding:0;position:relative;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;width:100%"><tbody><tr style="padding:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top"><th class="small-12 large-12 columns first last" style="Margin:0 auto;color:#0a0a0a;font-family:Montserrat,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:16px;font-weight:400;line-height:1.3;margin:0 auto;padding:0;padding-bottom:16px;padding-left:30px;padding-right:30px;text-align:left;width:570px"><table style="border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0;padding:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;width:100%"><tr style="padding:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top"><th style="Margin:0;color:#0a0a0a;font-family:Montserrat,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:16px;font-weight:400;line-height:1.3;margin:0;padding:0;text-align:left"><center data-parsed="" style="min-width:510px;width:100%"><img src="https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/214914/flowplay_logo.jpg" alt="" align="center" class="float-center" style="-ms-interpolation-mode:bicubic;Margin:0 auto;clear:both;display:block;float:none;margin:0 auto;max-width:100%;outline:0;text-align:center;text-decoration:none;width:auto"></center></th><th class="expander" style="Margin:0;color:#0a0a0a;font-family:Montserrat,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:16px;font-weight:400;line-height:1.3;margin:0;padding:0!important;text-align:left;visibility:hidden;width:0"></th></tr></table></th></tr></tbody></table><table class="row content" style="background:#fff;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0;display:table;padding:0;position:relative;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;width:100%"><tbody><tr style="padding:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top"><th class="small-12 large-12 columns first last" style="Margin:0 auto;color:#0a0a0a;font-family:Montserrat,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:16px;font-weight:400;line-height:1.3;margin:0 auto;padding:0;padding-bottom:16px;padding-left:30px;padding-right:30px;text-align:left;width:570px"><table style="border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0;padding:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;width:100%"><tr style="padding:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top"><th style="Margin:0;color:#0a0a0a;font-family:Montserrat,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:16px;font-weight:400;line-height:1.3;margin:0;padding:0;text-align:left">
<p>"Mounting player acquisition costs and a centralization of casual games distribution channels has made the free-to-play market extremely challenging for small developers to break into," said <span class="xn-person">Derrick Morton</span>, CEO of FlowPlay. "Through this partnership in Alto.io, we are investing in not only the company and the future of blockchain game technology, but also the future potential of many yet-to-be-developed games that could not exist without a solution like Alto.io."</p>
<p>The Alto.io platform and ecosystem is currently under development and is expected to launch in early 2019. The Alto.io model is designed for the benefit of the entire games ecosystem â while game developers will get free customer acquisition, players will be able use their cryptoitems across multiple games, and item creators will receive a commission each time a cryptoitem exchanges hands. The model will be enabled by a software suite including the Alto Forge, a tool allowing developers to mint non-fungible, fully tradable cryptoitems and integrate the items games. Serving as Alto.io's mobile wallet, the Alto Backpack will allow consumers to store and trade cryptoitems as well as discover new Alto-powered blockchain games. Additionally, the Alto Wizard will allow for the creation of storefronts, enabling the pre-sale of cryptoitems in an Initial Item Offering (IIO) which will assist developers in securing funding, engaging an early user base, and creating value beyond a game's economy from day one.</p>
<p>"FlowPlay's long history and deep expertise in the casual games space makes the company's insights invaluable to the mission of Alto.io," said <span class="xn-person">Chase Freo</span>, CEO of Alto.io. "We look forward to working alongside the FlowPlay team to continue refining the model, evolving the technology, and advancing the use of blockchain in games."</p>
<p>To help support indie game developers interested in becoming early entrants into the blockchain space, Alto.io also recently launched the <a href="http://email.prnewswire.com/wf/click?upn=zySGXW1QLHU8t7wSbPI8iMD4E8iu7XUyU5cHAI3-2FLFg-3D_q1N77mbql2CxsoEfo2fFiZ6dnlev64IGUSa1KT1DDw1MuprZmQ6aap9NY9k0Le75V8k6uCXTedU7kBIrc5LDAku5rIcE6L1Djx4Lu2UyGKbAllrBy5omphlE5qJNl0JaJXvLHjt9Er4Fng0MII-2Brg3CBl9CjHDPIBc-2F2yhJ-2FGRkay-2BFWSojG7gzvOr9wy3-2BygahpJSD9gl0RSMuG-2FZqZSRKq63e9NObC9xPSAfZFb5no51UrOs9S6A3qexvReQ9qRRnPZtthyzbZn9MZLbLj7uxNf4pqtvS2ZL9Ejh37F45l8Obp-2F6TWYGeWcBvoiO2CzcIkxWUyB-2FnXPN9OhOz5uQ-3D-3D" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Alto Cryptogame Challenge</a>.
