Some days after the Lagos Life launched, I started thinking “what would building a native app for Lagos Life look like?”
So, I decided to try it out using @expo, React Native Skia v3 and react-native-webgpu by @wcandillon.
The app runs smoothly at 60fps. I will be sharing an article soon.
Big shout out to @Shalom_HeyEliy and the entire Lagos Life team!
Demo👇🏽
Lagos Life launched on October 1st. Just 9 days later, over 4.7 million people have played the game.
Today, I’m excited to announce that Vatar, the parent company behind Lagos Life, has closed a $500K angel round led by AB Hassan (@ijbguy), Nathan Nwachuku (@_KingNath), and GB Agboola (@TechProd_Arch).
Lagos is just the beginning. We’re building entire worlds, and there’s so much more to come. 🌍
