Eyeball Games, a Singapore-based studio from the creators of the hit mobile game 8 Ball Pool, is partnering with Immutable, the leading web3 gaming platform, to unveil Eyeball Pool — a web3-based mobile pool game — as one of the first titles on Immutable’s new zKEVM platform. Eyeball Pool is currently in beta with a full launch planned for early 2024.

8 Ball Pool is a cult classic that has racked up over 1 billion downloads since its release over 10 years ago and holds the Guinness world record as “The most downloaded mobile pool game”. The title remains as popular as ever with more than 10 million daily active users.

This partnership with Immutable will enable the Eyeball team to accelerate development of its blockchain-based challenger, which gives players full ownership of their digital assets and includes other features that come from using blockchain infrastructure.

Eyeball Pool is designed from the ground up with its own physics engine and stunning graphics. The game features a player-vs-player mode and a range of tournament modes which include an AI skill-matching engine.

Partnering with Immutable and leveraging its API-based infrastructure allows Eyeball Games to significantly reduce the game’s development time and costs significantly. Eyeball Pool is the first of a number of games rolling out on Immutable utilizing the recently announced Immutable zkEVM, which enables creators to tap into smart contracts to incorporate advanced trading and game mechanics.

“Immutable Games Studio is constantly striving to push the boundaries and diversity of web3 games, and the addition of such a popular genre as pool to the Immutable blockchain family is yet another important step toward offering players as much variety as possible,” said Andrew Sorokovsky, VP of Global Business Development at Immutable.

“We believe there’s power in partnering with a specialized ecosystem for gaming versus one that tries to include all use cases. Immutable works day and night to improve its gaming ecosystem, developer tooling, and publishing capabilities – the Immutable zkEVM is a testament to this. With Immutable’s help, we look forward to redefining the pool game experience,” said Jonathan Ivarsson, CEO of Eyeball Games.

The full launch of Eyeball Pool on mobile devices is slated for Q1 2024, on Immutable zKEVM, after which the NFTs will convert into exciting game starter packs with exclusive and unique items for the game.

BGaming introduces first bird’s eye view crash game Top Eagle

Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

Popular iGaming content provider BGaming has released its new take on the popular crash game genre with Top Eagle. The title has five unlockable plane skins on top of the default one, motivating personal milestones, a flight history bar and an altitude meter which registers multiplier levels.

Brave players must take off and then open their parachute ahead of the plane’s unfortunate crash. After landing safely and winning the prize, their bets will be multiplied. The altimeter at the bottom right of the screen registers the distance the aircraft covers and reflects the possible winning multiplier. Players who cash out after x2, x5, x10, x50 or x100 unlock additional skins for their plane, with one skin per milestone available.

Further tailored milestones await in Top Eagle, with a special Best Drop icon on the top right of the game field. This displays the highest multiplier value scored throughout the gaming session, while the Leading badge is earned once the plane successfully surpasses the player’s previous longest attempt.

During each round, the bar at the top of the main game records the biggest multiplier reached before crashing. If the player successfully cashes out, the multiplier shows as white, while a non-winning round remains pale grey.

As in other BGaming crash games, Top Eagle’s autoplay mode allows players to preset the number of flights they wish to take, while the automatic cashout gives them the chance to set a multiplier value at which the game will cash out.

Players may also switch between two energetic soundtracks, “Attack” or “Recon”, to dictate the atmosphere of the game, while changing the skin of their plane as they make progress through the game.

Mikalai Dzeneladze, Chief Casual Game Producer at BGaming, said: “Crash games have quickly become a staple in our portfolio, with their appeal stretching across many regulated markets, including LatAm. With its unique top-down view which offers diversity of the background and the illusion of flight, players will remain engaged for longer.

“This game is not to be missed by both long-term crash game fans looking for a new experience, and new players trying the genre for the first time.”
