Avalanche Picks Funtico as Its Indie Gaming Platform

Panama City, Panama, August 27, 2025 - Funtico, the full-stack Web3 gaming platform, announced a strategic partnership with Avalanche, the world’s leading high-performance blockchain network, and LaunchLoop, the community-led accelerator behind Avalanche’s GameLoop initiative. This collaboration establishes Funtico as Avalanche’s chosen platform for supporting indie game developers and studios, providing the tools, infrastructure, and services needed to build, launch, and monetize games within the Avalanche ecosystem.

Avalanche has emerged as one of the most developer-friendly and scalable blockchain networks for gaming. To expand its ecosystem, Avalanche is investing directly in empowering developers by selecting Funtico as its go-to gaming platform. Funtico offers a suite of tools and features that removes technical barriers for game developers, meaning they can focus on creating engaging, entertaining games without a deep knowledge of blockchain. This includes:

• Publisher-as-a-Service (PaaS): enabling studios to publish games without heavy technical, legal or operational overhead.

• Cross-Game Interoperability: allowing seamless integration and connectivity between titles within the Funtico ecosystem, all by using the same utility token ($TICO).

• Integrated Payment Gateways: making it easy for both Web2 and Web3 players to transact easily and securely, whether in Fiat or Crypto.

• Compliance & Security: providing a compliant and safe environment for developers and players worldwide.

• Streamlined Onboarding: reducing friction for studios and players entering Web3 gaming.

• Expert Services & Support: offering game developers the resources and expertise needed to scale sustainably.

Through this partnership, Avalanche and Funtico take care of the technical and infrastructure heavy lifting, creating a sustainable environment where indie developers gain visibility, monetization pathways, and long-term support, while focusing their effort on creating engaging titles. This creates a platform where players enjoy many exciting, entertaining, and tournament-ready games hosted on Funtico.com.

The collaboration kicks off on September 8th, with Avalanche GameLoop Season 1, a community-driven program spearheaded by LaunchLoop alongside Avalanche and Funtico, featuring a $30,000 prize pool. Developers will build high-score browser games, supported by Funtico’s team, offering custom tools and individualized attention in order to create a streamline development process. These games will then be featured in global tournaments on Funtico.com, giving creators immediate access to live audiences and real feedback while rewarding players for participation.

Central to this ecosystem is Funtico’s utility token, $TICO, which powers platform-wide interactions. From tournament entries and rewards to developer monetization and cross-game benefits, $TICO acts as the unifying currency across Funtico’s ecosystem. As more games and players join through Avalanche-powered initiatives, demand for $TICO naturally increases, reinforcing its role as the backbone of the platform.

This collaboration is a part of Avalanche’s commitment to supporting the next generation of game developers and players, tapping Funtico as the platform of choice to scale its gaming ecosystem. Game developers interested in participating and potentially publishing their game through Funtico’s backing and support are invited to apply to GameLoop here.
