Alien Worlds Continues Weekly Friday Night Twitch Gaming Sessions

Dallas Johnson, CTO of Dacoco, shares insights from years of building decentralized autonomous organizations for Alien Worlds. In a new video, he breaks down the complexity behind governance mechanisms like stake-weighted voting, vote decay, and delegated representative systems. Key points: - Real-world DAO experience reveals unexpected challenges - Multiple voting systems tested and refined over time - Continuous iteration strengthens metaverse governance This follows earlier commentary from Dacoco CEO Saro McKenna, who noted that direct democracy often leads to fragmented decision-making. The team has shifted toward custodian-based models for better long-term treasury management. [Watch the video](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/aRk26FaP4tM)

**Alien Worlds has fixed technical problems** that were preventing players from mining, setting mining bags, and performing other in-game actions. - The metaverse gaming platform confirmed all systems are now operational - Players can resume normal gameplay activities - The team thanked the community for patience during the downtime This marks the second time in recent months that similar issues have been resolved, with a previous fix implemented in November 2025. **What is Alien Worlds?** Alien Worlds is an NFT-based metaverse that simulates Earth's economy using the Trilium (TLM) token. Players mine resources, collect NFTs, and participate in a social gaming experience.

At CVC25, Dacoco CEO Saro McKenna outlined how Alien Worlds has evolved into a decentralized gaming ecosystem with over 10 community-built titles now available on Apple App Store and Google Play Store. **Key developments:** - Games developed through DAO-supported initiatives rather than centralized development - Community creators building frontends, games, and tools independently - Ecosystem designed to function without reliance on original founding team - Projects continue expanding reach across mobile platforms McKenna emphasized the resilience model: if one contributor steps away, others can continue development work. This approach allows the network to scale through distributed community participation rather than depending on a single entity. The expansion demonstrates how DAO governance can fund and coordinate multiple gaming projects within a shared ecosystem using the TLM token framework.
