Built to scale on Immutable X
CoH will be built on the Immutable X platform which is primarily centered around scalability, user experience, and ecological impact.
Zero Gas Fees for Users
Immutable X eliminates gas fees for users engaging in transactions within the game. This feature is particularly attractive as it removes a significant barrier to entry and participation in blockchain-based games, where gas fees can often be prohibitively high. By offering zero gas fees, games can encourage more frequent and varied in-game transactions, such as trading and minting NFTs, without penalising players financially.
Scalability
Immutable X is built on top of Ethereum through StarkWare’s ZK-rollups, which means it can process over 9,000 transactions per second. This level of scalability ensures that CoH can handle high volumes of user interactions and transactions without the typical bottlenecks associated with the Ethereum mainnet. Given that we expect a large user base, this scalability is critical to maintaining smooth and responsive gameplay experiences.
Security of Ethereum
While providing scalability and zero gas fees, Immutable X does not compromise on security. It leverages the robust security framework of Ethereum, ensuring that all transactions are as secure as those conducted directly on the Ethereum blockchain. This security assurance is vital for us as developers, as well as players, especially when dealing with valuable digital assets.
Sustainability
Immutable X is a carbon-neutral platform, which aligns with the growing demand for environmentally sustainable practices in technology. CoH will also appeal to a socially conscious audience, so partnering with a carbon-neutral blockchain platform helps in maintaining ecological responsibility and enhancing our brand image.
Developer and User-Friendly
Immutable X offers a developer-friendly environment with comprehensive APIs and SDKs that simplify the integration of blockchain technology into our game. This ease of use extends to the gamers through a smooth user interface and experience, minimising the typical complexities involved with blockchain interactions.
Marketplace Features
The platform includes built-in marketplace features that allow us to set up and manage digital marketplaces easily. This feature is essential for CoH as trading, buying, and selling digital assets will be a significant part of the gameplay experience. Players can seamlessly trade CoH assets on a secure platform without leaving the game environment.
Interoperability
Immutable X supports interoperability with other systems and games, enabling assets to be portable across different ecosystems. This interoperability is a key advantage for CoH in order to be part of a broader blockchain ecosystem, providing players with more value and utility for their in-game purchases.
Partnering with Immutable X provides CoH with the necessary infrastructure to operate at scale, maintain high security, eliminate gas fees, and support sustainability - all crucial for the success and longevity our game.
