Moonveil Announces Upcoming Launch of Gamer-Centric Layer-2 Chain Testnet

Cayman Island, October 8, 2024 –– Trailblazing web3 game studio Moonveil has announced the upcoming launch of its gamer-centric Layer-2 Chain testnet, powered by Polygon CDK. The highly anticipated release marks a major milestone in the studio’s mission to create a gamer-first ecosystem.

Moonveil’s Layer-2 Chain testnet harnesses the power of the zk-powered Polygon CDK and AggLayer, offering a customizable and scalable solution for developers and a seamless, fast, and secure experience for users. 

By modularizing functions such as transactions and oracles and distributing them across different layers and modules, the speed and efficiency of the entire network can be greatly improved, with lower operational costs and stronger security attendant benefits. 

As a consequence of the improved modularization, game developers are able to more easily test and integrate new technologies and features without impacting the overall system, a crucial requirement for fast-iterating game products.

M.J Wang, The Co-Founder and CEO of Moonveil Entertainment, said: “Moonveil is excited to announce the upcoming launch of our Layer 2 Chain testnet, a key step toward revolutionizing gaming with unmatched scalability and performance. Powered by Polygon CDK and AggLayer, this chain offers a fast, secure, and customizable solution for developers and gamers alike. Alongside the launch, our node sales will soon begin, inviting the community to be a part of this transformative journey. “

Moonveil’s Layer-2 Chain achieves high performance through fast network finality, frequent validity proofs, and Polygon Zero technology, which offers the fastest ZK proof in the world. Thanks to its leveraging of Polygon zkEVM, transaction costs are dramatically reduced, making gas fees a non-issue for gamers. The use of recursive STARK technology, meanwhile, means developers can create a wide range of dApps and games without having to rewrite code.

The AggLayer, an interoperability infrastructure co-developed by Polygon Labs, offers unified cross-chain liquidity, which is essential for smooth interoperability and collaboration between game products. As $MORE tokens are used for gas, mismatches between gas tokens and in-game tokens are also eliminated, ensuring a smooth, chain-abstracted experience and effortless user onboarding. 

Moreover, the AggLayer allows developers to easily create independent spaces, giving each game product the flexibility to have one or more dedicated environments for better modular design. It even becomes possible to divide game sub-scenes, enhancing the overall structure and organization of the game world.

Alongside the testnet launch, Moonveil has announced the upcoming release of Flaming Pets, an on-chain game set in a magical world of 25 enchanted castles. This strategic multiplayer arena game will serve as a key tool for optimizing the studio’s L2 technology and furnishing players with an exciting, competitive gameplay experience.

By ensuring robust protection for state attestations, bridging, and cross-chain messaging, the studio believes it has created a best-in-class experience for players interacting with its burgeoning game-focused ecosystem. 

Moonveil will also soon begin node sales, allowing its community to actively participate in the growth of its ecosystem.

Since being founded in 2022, Moonveil has raised $9 million from major investors such as Gumi Cryptos,Spartan Group, Capital, HashKey Capital, Animoca Ventures, Hivemind, and Mask Network. This substantial backing underscores the industry’s confidence in the studio’s vision, technology, and experience.
