Slingshot: The Future of Blockchain Gaming on Roblox

Slingshot is a game launcher that taps into this shift, focusing exclusively on delivering blockchain-powered experiences within the Roblox ecosystem.

Slingshot, a game launcher that delivers blockchain-powered experiences within the Roblox ecosystem, is steadily expanding its operations and forging new partnerships to revolutionize the gaming landscape further. In this interview, Zac, a core contributor and community lead at Slingshot, provides insights into why the project chose to develop on Roblox, plans to ramp up game production and the role AI will play in the ecosystem.

As one of the largest gaming ecosystems in the world, Roblox presents a massive, untapped market primed for crypto integration, according to Zac.

“Roblox gamers are the next generation of crypto investors — if they aren’t already. With over $10 billion spent annually across its ecosystem, it’s a perfect springboard into broader user-generated content ecosystems like Fortnite, where we plan to launch in early 2024 with a selection of specially curated titles and a community-driven approach to selecting the best games.”

Slingshot’s entry into Roblox and then Fortnite is just the beginning.

“From there, we’ll expand deeper into IP, building

original merchandise, launching media extensions like movies and shaping the future of interactive entertainment powered by crypto. It’s a bold vision, but we have the team, the community and the technology to make it a reality.”

Slingshot has already released 11 games on Roblox that have surpassed 1 billion plays and currently boast over 3 million monthly active players.

“Our model is simple — and it works. Slingshot combines cutting-edge tech, elite creative talent and tight coordination to generate hundreds of game ideas, which are then voted on by the community to select the best concepts. The top-rated games are incubated through our ecosystem from concept to launch.

With a distribution network that reaches over 80 million players inside the Roblox ecosystem and a community that rallies behind each title, every game backed by Slingshot has the potential to achieve massive scale and engagement from day one.

In 2025, we’re targeting the launch of 30 new games — a major value driver for the Slingshot brand and a testament to our ability to scale and adapt in a rapidly changing industry.”

Slingshot has generated over $5 million in revenue over the past three years.

“This capital isn't sitting idle — it’s fueling the expansion of our ecosystem and the development of new games and experiences.

Our focus is on shipping successful titles that generate revenue, strengthen the Slingshot brand and provide maximum value to our community.

As our ecosystem scales and evolves, so too will the mechanisms for accruing value in the SLING token. In the future, deeper accrual will be tied to the token, further strengthening its position as a core pillar of utility and value potential across the entire Slingshot product suite.”

Slingshot has secured significant partnerships with both Web2 and Web3 brands, demonstrating the broad appeal and interest in the project.

“We're honored to have the support of Arbitrum, Ready Gamer — a subdivision of Virtuals Protocol — Story Protocol, Boss Studios, Motoverse and Lamborghini, among others. Each partnership is a testament to the caliber of what we're building at Slingshot and the potential that we see to revolutionize the gaming industry.

We're always looking for ways to expand our reach and forge new connections with like-minded individuals and organizations.

Over the next two months, we'll be announcing a wave of new partnerships — some of the biggest and most exciting to date. To tease just one, we've onboarded a key YouTuber with over 50 million subscribers as a Slingshot ambassador, which will massively expand our distribution network and introduce the SLING ecosystem to an even broader audience.”

Slingshot is actively in discussion with several major centralized exchanges to expand the reach of the SLING utility token and drive greater product engagement.

“Our sights are set on the rapid expansion of new markets, beginning this month. We're also planning to launch SLING on several DeFi protocols in the coming months, providing users with more opportunities to participate in the Slingshot ecosystem and earn rewards for their contributions.

Our strategy is one of slow, steady build. We launched SLING in a challenging market — not because it was easy, but because we're builders backed by long-term conviction and strong partners. This launch was a signal that we're not here for hype cycles; we're here to build something lasting.

We chose to launch when we did because we had the product, the team and the vision to create something truly special. We didn't want to launch a token without anything to show for it. We had the game, the community and the technology — and we're still rolling out new products and expanding our ecosystem.

But we're not stopping there. We're also planning to launch a collectible NFT series later this year, which will give users the opportunity to collect
