PlaySide raised $8.4 milion selling NFTs for their new, upcoming game 'Bean Land'.. that they then quietly scrapped. This is according to one source of information which I have linked down the bottom, however I can't find news about this anywhere else, so unsure about this credibility.
I found the article here at Capital Brief. It is behind a paywall unfortunately so only the first paragraph or so is visible.
Some GOOD news for these guys; looks like their new game Mouse P.I. has done incredibly well, selling 700+ thousand units in its first month of release generating $21.4 million in revenue. This recoups the publisher's investment in the development of the game, so I imagine all future sales should be contributing quite well to their profits.
