To empower game developers and 3D creators, the all-in-one game platform The Mirror received an investment of $2.3 million in the pre-seed round.
Investment Highlights
The tour, which raised a total of $ 2.3 million in investments, was led by the Founders Fund. Other names participating in the round included Decoy Ventures, Abstract Ventures, Florida Funders and Palm Tree Crew. Mirror has increased its team up to 15 people since its launch in early 2022. Mirror will use the investment raised in the Pre-seed round to grow its team and upgrade its brand’s presence in the gaming industry. Josh Chapman, Managing Partner at Konvoy Ventures, says:
“When we heard Jared’s pitch for Godot building a virtual world on top of the platform, we were incredibly excited to invest in the mirror to see them pursue a multi-billion dollar opportunity that could be leveraged by hundreds of millions of gamers and creators. We believe the Godot engine is one of the most underrated projects in the gaming industry, due to it being open-source, lacking scale, and not having enough players using it. We are excited to invest in The Mirror team and be in their corner.”
The Mirror’s Project
Mirror sees the complexity of the game development process for game developers and 3D artists. Seeing the problems experienced by game developers and 3D content creators, Mirror offers game developers and 3D content creators multiplayer networking, real-time collaboration, a physics sandbox, and support for community-based user-generated content to solve this complexity. Jared McCluskey, Founder/CEO of The Mirror, said:
“The Mirror enables developers of any skill level to build the next generation of games and applications, real-time, with friends and colleagues. Most software has moved to real-time collaboration and cloud-based solutions, but game development has been left behind and we’re excited to bring it to the next level with open-source software. I’m incredibly grateful to our investors for believing in us and we’re excited to show what we’ve been building. The future is in The Mirror.”
Mirror team built its platform on the Godot game engine because it believes in open-source software. Emphasizing that interoperability is the most important feature of creating an all-in-one game platform, Mirror thinks that this will only be possible with open source software. Mirror platform appeals to developers of all skill levels. Whether you are an expert or a rookie developer, you can develop games on the platform and present them on the platform’s marketplace.
