A new collaboration between blockchain-based MMO Star Atlas and decentralized cloud gaming platform Shaga aims to break down hardware barriers for gamers and creators alike. The two projects are rolling out a campaign titled “Streaming With Shaga,” offering rewards of up to $100,000.
Designed to showcase how high-fidelity Web3 games like Star Atlas can run smoothly on mobile devices without a gaming PC, this event highlights a growing push to make blockchain gaming accessible to wider audiences.
Bringing Web3 Gaming to Phones and Tablets
Star Atlas, developed on the Solana blockchain and powered by Unreal Engine 5, typically requires high-performance PCs to handle its detailed graphics and complex economy. Under this new initiative, creators can broadcast gameplay from their PC to viewers’ phones or tablets via Shaga’s cloud platform—no powerful computer required on the viewer’s end. In essence, Star Atlas becomes a game anyone can try out from virtually anywhere, as long as they have a smartphone or tablet.
$100K Reward Pool and Airdrop Angle
Central to the campaign is a substantial reward pool that combines $ATLAS tokens, Star Atlas ships, and GLOB points (Shaga’s native reward currency). Participants who register and are accepted into the campaign can earn various digital assets and tokens. GLOB points, in particular, may be of special interest: they’re designed to lead to future airdrops and unlockable perks, reflecting a broader shift in Web3 gaming toward giving active community members meaningful, long-term incentives.
An upfront submission bonus sweetens the deal for creators who move quickly. The next 50 qualifying participants that post a short “Shaga in Action” clip by April 21, 2025, can secure an additional Star Atlas XS Ship—valued at around $135—and $50 in USDC. These lucky early adopters then move on to compete for the full prize pool once the official campaign starts on April 23 running through May 7.

How Creators Can Qualify
Interested creators need at least 100 followers on major social platforms (e.g., X, Twitch, YouTube, or TikTok). They must have streamed at least four times within the past four months. To enter, they’ll record a 30- to 60-second video demonstrating how one of their viewers uses the Shaga app on a mobile device to access Star Atlas in real-time. Once the video is ready, they must post it on X, tagging @playonshaga and including the phrase “Streaming with Shaga.”
Accepted creators gain access to all of Star Atlas’ in-game assets, enabling them to showcase everything from starships to complex market mechanics. Moreover, each approved participant is promised 100,000 GLOB points, setting the stage for future token airdrops or other unlockable rewards within Shaga’s ecosystem.
Star Atlas: Paving a Way
Star Atlas is a futuristic grand strategy game set in the year 2620, inviting players to explore deep space, conquer new territories, and develop a thriving, player-driven economy. Developed on the Solana blockchain, it delivers fast and affordable transactions, while blending stunning Unreal Engine 5 graphics with decentralized asset ownership.
In Star Atlas, spaceships, virtual land, and in-game characters function as NFTs, meaning they can be bought, sold, or traded on marketplaces like Serum DEX. Players can jump into mining, engage in epic combat, and even shape the political landscape through Decentralized Autonomous Corporations (DACs).
A dual-token system fuels every interaction: $ATLAS covers in-game transactions, while $POLIS drives governance, letting the community make critical policy decisions.
With the help of Shaga’s decentralized cloud platform, Star Atlas hopes to reach an even broader audience by streaming its high-end gaming experience to just about any device. It’s a step toward a Web3 future where top-tier games aren’t restricted by hardware requirements—opening the door for more people to explore.
