Web3 gaming is evolving rapidly, bringing new opportunities for developers, designers, and enthusiasts. In a recent podcast hosted by Unicast AI, Cory from Runesoul shared his expertise on the evolution of GameFi, career paths in Web3 gaming, and the importance of community involvement.

GameFi’s Evolution: Beyond Play-to-Earn

The early success of play-to-earn (P2E) games, such as Axie Infinity, showed the potential of blockchain gaming but also exposed flaws in sustainability. Cory emphasized that modern GameFi must go beyond financial incentives. Sustainable projects prioritize engaging gameplay, strong tokenomics, and NFT interoperability to build long-term value.

Runesoul aims to set a new standard by offering interoperable NFTs, an AI-powered marketplace, and a multi-game ecosystem where assets can be transferred across games. These innovations ensure that players remain engaged beyond token speculation, making the ecosystem more resilient.

Breaking into a Web3 Gaming Career

For professionals looking to transition into blockchain gaming, Cory highlighted the growing demand for Unity developers, blockchain engineers, and game designers. If you have a Web2 development background, learning C# and Unity is a key step toward landing a GameFi job.

Non-technical roles are also essential. Writers, illustrators, and localization experts play a crucial role in crafting immersive gaming experiences. Networking is vital—attend offline events, join Web3 communities on Telegram and Discord, and participate in AMAs to connect with industry leaders.

Why Community is Critical in GameFi

Unlike traditional gaming, Web3 projects thrive on community engagement. Players expect transparency, direct interaction with developers, and active participation in shaping the game's future. Successful projects, like Runesoul, maintain open communication through Discord, Telegram, and AMAs, allowing users to provide feedback and influence development.

The expectation for blockchain projects to maintain high levels of transparency and direct engagement is a defining characteristic of Web3 gaming. Cory noted that developers who integrate real-time player feedback create more immersive and trusted gaming ecosystems.
