We've seen interactive in-game items sold as NFTs, such as the cartoonish monsters from the surging Axie Infinity and LAND plots in the upcoming The Sandbox. But NFTs that are actual, playable video games? Now that's something new. That's the vision behind Supdrive, a newly-revealed NFT project spearheaded by Dom Hofmann, best known as the co-founder of shuttered looping video service, Vine. Supdrive will be an "on-chain fantasy console" where the NFTs themselves serve as the games. If you own the game NFT, then you can play it via the "Supdrive Virtual Firmware" software. An NFT acts like a receipt or deed of ownership to a digital item, whether it's a digital painting, video clip, or in-game item-or even a video game itself, as Supdrive plans to introduce. Supdrive will initially be supported by original games created by Hofmann himself, with the first called "Origin." Over time, he plans to open up the platform to collaborators to create additional titles. In a Discord post, Hofmann likened the project to Art Blocks, an Ethereum NFT initiative that has thus far spanned generative art drops from a wide array of artists.
