What is GAME by Virtuals (GAMEBASE)

I. Project Introduction

1. What Is GAMEBASE?

GAMEBASE is HTX's display ticker for GAME by Virtuals. The project's native name and token symbol are GAME. G.A.M.E. is a modular agent decision-making framework developed by Virtuals Protocol that can plan and output the next action based on an agent's goals, personality, context, state, and callable functions. It is neither a standalone blockchain game nor limited to tokenized agents, and can be used for social, research, on-chain, and other applications that require autonomous decision-making.

2. How Does GAMEBASE Work?

GAME uses a layered planning structure: a high-level planner interprets goals, generates tasks, and sequences them, while low-level Workers execute specific actions within their respective tool and function scopes, read the results, and provide feedback. Developers can customize state, functions, plugins, and external data through the Python or TypeScript SDK, and can also integrate the Agent Commerce Protocol (ACP) to handle service calls between agents. The team has marked GAME Cloud as deprecated and currently maintains the GAME SDK as the primary offering. As of July 2026, the GAME console indicates that the framework is being upgraded and directs users to temporarily create agents and select inference services through the main Virtuals application.

3. Who Founded GAMEBASE?

GAME was developed by the Virtuals Protocol team rather than as an anonymous project independent of Virtuals. The official core contributors page lists early core contributors such as Jansen and Wee Kee, along with AI and engineering members.

4. GAMEBASE Tokenomics

GAME had an initial design cap of 1,000,000,000 tokens, with an original issuance structure of 87.5% public sale and 12.5% liquidity pool; the on-chain total may fall below the initial cap due to burns. GAME is a project token associated with the framework's brand, but access rules for the current official SDK/API are primarily based on free quotas, call limits, and paid credits. Official materials do not state that holding GAME is a prerequisite for using the framework, nor do they grant it equity, revenue sharing, or protocol governance rights. GAME is not currently a mandatory payment token for all AI calls.

5. Timeline of Key Milestones

2024: Virtuals Protocol launches the G.A.M.E. framework and issues the GAME by Virtuals token.

2025: The Python and TypeScript SDKs, the plugin system, and ACP integration are progressively refined, and GAME expands from a social agent tool into a general-purpose modular decision-making framework.

Second half of 2025: Official documentation marks GAME Cloud as deprecated, and developers shift primarily to the GAME SDK.

July 2026: The GAME console indicates that the framework is being upgraded and temporarily migrates new agent creation and inference access to the main Virtuals application.​
