+      The Starknet Foundation is excited to announce the formation of its Gaming
+      Committee. Comprised of six experts, the Committee's mandate is to promote

+      ## The Gaming Committee
+
+
+      ### Role
+
+
+      The Gaming Committee's role is to analyze, strategize, and recommend programs to expand Starknet's gaming ecosystem. Its success will be measured by usage metrics like daily active users, retention rates, and revenue.
+
+
+      ### Overview
+
+
+      Gaming is critical to driving blockchain adoption. Starknet's high performance and low cost makes it an ideal platform for next-generation games. The Committee recognizes this potential and will focus on realizing it.
+
+

+
+      5. Tarrence van As, Cartridge
+
+
+      6. Loaf, Loot Realms
+
+
+      Their combined expertise will guide the committee in achieving its goals.
+
+
+      ### Mission 
+
+
+      The Committee is tasked with designing and recommending programs to incentivize developers to build games on Starknet and to incentivize players to use them.
+
+
+
+
+      ## Roadmap

+
+
+      The Committee will meet regularly, seek feedback, and report progress to the Foundation.
+
+
+      ## Budget
