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.
