Jon Radoff Interviewed at GameFi Unleased

At the GameFi Unleashed event during Token 2049, Jon Radoff, CEO of Beamable, discussed how Beamable is revolutionizing backend development for both web2 and web3 games. He highlighted how Beamable simplifies the technical complexities for game developers, allowing them to focus on gameplay instead of backend infrastructure like social systems, matchmaking, and blockchain integration.

Below are key points from Jon’s insights:

• Beamable’s Role: Beamable is a gaming backend technology provider, streamlining backend development for both web2 and web3 games. Developers can focus on gameplay rather than backend logistics like matchmaking and social systems.
• Web2 and Web3 Integration: The platform supports both web2 and web3 games, emphasizing that many essential game features (multiplayer, chat, etc.) overlap between the two ecosystems.
• Chain Abstraction: Beamable simplifies blockchain integration, allowing developers to build games without worrying about specific blockchain technology until later. Switching between blockchains is easy, removing technical hurdles for web2 developers transitioning to web3.
• Challenges for Developers: Many web3 developers struggle to balance blockchain tech and good game design. Beamable automates blockchain functionality, helping teams focus on building engaging games rather than managing blockchain specifics.
• Deepin Project: Beamable is launching a new backend solution aggregating various service providers to ensure flexibility and scalability, preventing reliance on a single provider like Amazon. This will protect developers from issues like when Amazon discontinued its GameSparks service, affecting thousands of games.
• Vision for the Future: Beamable’s platform aims to make game development more accessible, scalable, and adaptable, especially for web3 gaming, by offering integrated backend services that work across different blockchain and server providers.

Beamable’s vision is to provide seamless backend support to game developers, empowering them to create better games without being bogged down by backend or blockchain complexities.
