<p>There are many games within the Ronin ecosystem but two games have been holding the fort lately, and those are Fishing Frenzy &amp; Pixels, which both rolled new updates in the second week of Feb.</p><p><a href="https://funjible.games/games/Pixels">Pixels</a>, the cozy farming simulator of Ronin, launched the "Heidi's Birthday Bake" event this week. As a part of the update, players must bake a cake and identify the real Heidi among a crowd of duplicates. This quest will be live until Feb. 13 and the rewards include a lemon teddy bear and pink heart sofa.</p><p>Pixels devs also shared more details inside their&nbsp;<a href="https://pixelspost.substack.com/p/new-event-heidis-birthday-bake">Heidi’s Birthday Bake Substack post</a>. One notable change was also to the resource-drop mechanics, with mines now only yielding materials for their own tier. Higher-level players will be able to get bigger drops from the mines.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:47.21%;"><img src="https://assets.funjible.games/pixels_heidi_c9661a9994.jpg" alt="Pixels Heidi screenshot" srcset="https://assets.funjible.games/pixels_heidi_c9661a9994.jpg 226w, https://assets.funjible.games/pixels_heidi_c9661a9994.jpg 500w" sizes="100vw"></figure><h2>Time to Fish</h2><p><a href="https://funjible.games/games/fishing-frenzy">Fishing Frenzy</a>, meanwhile, released the&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/FishingFrenzyCo/status/2021071917436809488">fifth edition of its dev blog</a>, where the devs walked community members through all the cool products that have been delivered over the last months.</p><p>In recent months, Fishing Frenzy has seen new mechanics, like diving jackpots, referral campaigns, seasonal events, and creator contests.</p><p>According to the devs, a diving jackpot saw players win up to 5,000 RON or 1m FISH. A collaboration with Angry Dynos brought in new users with a prize pool worth $42,000 in FISH. Though the prize distribution caused a sharp drop in FISH token's price, it also burnt 1.4 tokens from circulation.</p><p>There are plenty of hints on where Fishing Frenzy is headed next inside the blog as well since the devs believe that the game must broaden its appeal beyond Crypto Twitter. The biggest step toward that goal will be with Fishing Frenzy Chapter 3, which is currently in development, and will focus on:</p><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:56.36%;"><img src="https://assets.funjible.games/fishing_frenzy_chapter_3_615ab68274.jpg" alt="Fishing Frenzy Chapter 3 screenshot" srcset="https://assets.funjible.games/fishing_frenzy_chapter_3_615ab68274.jpg 226w, https://assets.funjible.games/fishing_frenzy_chapter_3_615ab68274.jpg 500w" sizes="100vw"></figure><ul><li>Deeper progression, less grinding, more social features such as chat and guilds.</li><li>Creating interdependency between players so that trading becomes necessary rather than optional.</li><li>More ways to compete for real money, starting with mini-game experiments.</li></ul><p>The team is also eyeing new user acquisition beyond the Ronin bubble, potentially through mini-games on other chains or an eventual iOS or Android app.</p><p>As players, we appreciate these two games sharing their progress with communities via blog posts, while also releasing key gameplay updates. There’s a clear shift in&nbsp;<a href="https://funjible.games/news/funjible-games-report-2025-crypto-gaming-trends">crypto gaming trends</a> and more developers are making decisions based on that, including&nbsp;<a href="https://funjible.games/news/pixels-founder-says-web3-gamings-core-values-were-wrong">Pixels’ founder who recently said that Web3’s gaming core values were wrong</a>. More and more games are now shipping gameplay-first updates, with&nbsp;<a href="https://funjible.games/news/top-10-play-to-earn-games-in-2025">play-to-earn</a> mechanics taking a backseat.</p><div class="raw-html-embed">
