Introduction

Align your studio with the team that built and maintains @ohayo_dojo.

Cartridge has incubated dozens of teams that have collectively raised millions of dollars in funding and are launching robust games on mainnet. Some of these teams include those behind Loot Survivor, Dope Wars, Eternum, zKorp, Paved, Underware, Grug’s Lair, Jokers of Neon, and many more.

Cartridge is operating a formal program to partner with the leading studios that are building fully onchain games which will make available the full range of Cartridge’s resources and capabilities, including non-dilutive grant funding, credits for and early access to our products like the Controller, Slot, Saya, and other tooling to enhance your game.
