Our Team

We’re a highly technical team that’s working on the Otherside, Yuga Labs’ 3D metaverse. We work with other best-in-class teams around the world, and pride ourselves in being able to find innovative solutions to the unique challenges presented at the intersection of web2, gaming, and web3.
