The developers of Hamster Kombat have planned to bring back players.
The developers of Hamster Kombat anticipated player departures and intend to attract participants from the first season, as well as new users. This was reported by Cointelegraph citing a statement from a project team representative.
In the summer of 2024, the audience of 'tapalki' reached 300 million, but after an unsuccessful airdrop, according to users, the project lost 260 million players. The price of the HMSTR token, which was at $0.011 on the listing day of September 26, subsequently collapsed to $0.002254. After the drop, it began to recover amid the rise of Bitcoin to new historical highs.
The project team stated that the drop in activity was 'expected'. Interest in the game 'rises and falls'.
'Since our project has seasons, this is quite expected. Right now we are in an intermediate period and preparing for the launch of the second season. Even now our MAU indicator remains above 30 million, which indicates stable interest,' noted a representative of Hamster Kombat.
In October, the developers of Hamster Kombat commented on the collapse of the HMSTR price due to supply dominating over demand.
The team will aim to 're-establish interaction' with participants from the first season while attracting new players.
'We currently have over 11 million token holders, which allows us to compete with leading blockchains. We plan to increase the number of HMSTR owners and enter new markets,' said a project representative.
The project 'managed to retain the core group' of players, consisting of 30 million users who are 'actively involved in the gameplay' after the first airdrop, said a source from the publication.
Recall that Telegram developers released a major update that provided mini-apps with full-screen mode, icons on the home screen, access to geolocation, and other features.
