we built this mobile game with nft rewards and in-game marketplace. beta testing went great until we deployed to mainnet. players had to pay $5-15 in gas just to claim a basic reward. completely broke the economics.

our investors were not happy. we had two options: rebuild everything on a different chain or find a way to eliminate gas for players. ended up going with option 2 using caldera to deploy our own rollup. now transactions are basically free for players and instant.

took about 3 weeks to migrate everything but it saved the project. if you’re building any kind of game with frequent transactions, you really need to think about this stuff before launch. learned that lesson the hard way.

the crazy part is how much smoother onboarding became once we removed the gas friction. player retention jumped like 40%.
