Gala Games was founded with one goal in mind: to give power back to the gamers. Our mission is to enable freedom through play. To this end, we have embarked on one of the most ambitious development projects to date - the creation of the Gala Games Ecosystem. Founded by Eric Schiermeyer (the co-founder of Zynga and gaming legend), Wright Thurston (one of the first major miners in the cryptocurrency space and holder of multiple patents on blockchain technology), and Michael McCarthy (the Creative Director behind viral gaming hits such as Farmville 2), Gala Games is here to fundamentally redefine both the gaming and blockchain spaces. The first game released by Gala Games, Town Star, is a deceptively simple looking but incredibly deep farming simulation in which user builds a farm to compete in weekly competitions. At various places, NFTs can be used in the game to provide bonuses but are not required to play, have fun, or compete. Mirandus, the MMORPG/Adventure Simulator currently under development by Gala Games is working to completely redefine both the game development pipeline, as well as the gameplay model by putting the power in the hands of the players and giving them ultimate control over the in-game economy.
The Louisiana Lottery Corporation`s mission is to maximize revenue for the state of Louisiana while upholding the highest standards of integrity and public trust. Established in 1991 by an act of the Louisiana Legislature and subsequently approved by voters, the Louisiana Lottery Corporation has become a regular source of funding for public education. Every year, we transfer at least 35 percent of our revenue to state government, one of the highest percentages in the country. Around 53 percent of revenue generated by the Louisiana Lottery is paid out in prizes to players. Louisiana businesses benefit as well, with more than five percent of revenue paid to nearly 3,000 retailers that sell our tickets. Just six percent of revenue is retained to operate the Lottery, which is totally self-funded. The Louisiana Lottery offers about 30 different scratch-off games at any given time with prices of $1, $2, $3, $5 and $10. In addition, the Lottery offers six draw-style games, including the multistate, multimillion-dollar jackpot games Powerball and Mega Millions. State-based games include Lotto with a starting jackpot of $250,000 and Easy 5, with a starting jackpot of $50,000. Daily draw games include Pick 3 and Pick 4.
