PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

General

The Company was incorporated on November 3, 2008 under the laws of the State of Nevada, to engage in certain business services. Our goal is to become a leading tournament gaming provider as well as an online destination, targeting over 250 million esports players and participants worldwide that want to compete at the high school or college level. We are a developmental stage business, have generated limited revenues to date and have a history of operating losses.

The Good Gaming platform was established in early 2014 by its founding members who recognized the need that millions of gamers worldwide desired to play games at competitive levels. The founders recognized that there was no structure or organization on a large scale for amateur gamers while professional esports was quickly establishing itself.

Good Gaming is effectively building the business infrastructure for the rapidly growing esports industry, similar to the high school and college athletic industry. Good Gaming is designed to be the gateway for amateur esports athletes to compete at the semi-professional level, improve their gaming skills, and interact with veteran gamers globally in a destination site and social networking framework.

Good Gaming differs from the professional level of the esports industry by focusing on more than 250 million gamers that fall below the professional level but are above the casual level, classified as “amateurs.” Good Gaming distinguishes itself from its direct and indirect competitors by being the first company to offer multi-game, multi-console services at the amateur esports level. The Company is not exclusive to any particular hardware or software vendor.

On May 4, 2016, the Company announced that it had completed its first closed public beta testing of their 2.0 tournament platform to determine the functionality, speed, ease of use, and accuracy of the system and are preparing to enter into full-blown production.

On February 18, 2016, the Company, formerly HDS International Corp., acquired the assets of Good Gaming, Inc. from CMG Holdings Group, Inc. (OTCQB: CMGO). On that date, the Company’s former CEO, Paul Rauner, resigned. The Company appointed Vikram Grover to the positions of CEO and Director of the board of directors (the “Board”). Vikram Grover is a former Wall Street analyst and investment banker with more than 20 years of experience in telecommunications, media and technology. In addition, David Dorwart was elected by the majority shareholders to the Company’s Board. Mr. Dorwart is the Co-Founder and Chairman of Assist Wireless, Inc., a provider of lifeline wireless services to tens of thousands of subscribers primarily in the Midwest.

On June 27, 2017 the Board of Directors of the Company appointed David B. Dorwart as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. On June 21, 2017, Mr. Dorwart was appointed to serve as the Chairman of the Board of Directors. David B. Dorwart, Chairman and CEO of Good Gaming, Inc., brings over 31 years of start-up entrepreneurism and executive level management to the Company. Mr. Dorwart was a CoFounder and CEO of dPi Teleconnect, a prepaid wireless provider, for 10 years. During his tenure, he grew that company from a start-up to $75 million in revenues before selling it. Over the last 9 years, he has been involved with several other successful projects including Assist Wireless, Brooklet Energy Distribution, PayGo Distributors and Britton & Associates. He is currently the Chairman and CoFounder of ViaOne Services, a company which specializes in wireless communications and provides intricate multi-faceted services for start-up companies utilizing industry experts. By virtue of the ownership of this Series C Preferred Stock, ViaOne is the Company’s principal stockholder.

On June 27, 2017, the Company also bolstered its Board of Directors with executive level professionals by adding two seasoned individuals who specialize in organization and finance as well as the branding and marketing of established and emerging organizations which are poised to show significant growth.

Domenic Fontana is currently Sr. Vice President of ViaOne Services and a new board member. He is an experienced CPA and financial executive who has worked in progressively more advanced executive roles throughout his career. Having worked at Verizon, Ebay and now ViaOne Services over the last 13 years, he has developed intimate and extensive knowledge of executive level management and the telecommunications industry. He has worked in all aspects of Finance, Accounting, Treasury, and Operations.

Jordan Majkszak Axt, a new board member is a results-producing marketing professional with over 14 years of experience successfully developing marketing and branding strategies. He has been consistently noted by executives, colleagues, and journalists for his specific expertise in bringing products and services online with a comprehensive digital go-to-market strategy. He has previously held executive level positions as Director of Marketing for ProfitPoint Inc. and Clutch Holdings LLC. He is currently Sr. Director of Marketing of ViaOne Services where he develops all marketing and customer acquisition strategies for 14 consumer facing brands.

On July 10, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors elected David Dorwart its CEO. Additionally, the Board of Directors approved Domenic Fontana and Jordan Axt to the Company’s Board of Directors.

On August 8, 2017, the board of directors of the Company accepted Vikram Grover’s resignation as the Treasurer of the Company and as a member of the Board, effective immediately.

On August 8, 2017, the Board of the Company accepted Barbara Laken’s resignation as the Secretary of the Company and as a member on the Board, effective immediately.

On August 9, 2017, the Company announced a strategic review of its business, which prompted improvements to its business model and a reduction in expenses designed to accelerate its move to free cash flow generation.

On August 29, 2017, Eric Brown became the Chief Operating Officer.

In September of 2017, the Company began focusing on its Minecraft server by enhancing the development staff and launched an offering of microtransactions after it saw the opportunity to generate revenue without adding a great deal of overhead. The initial offering of microtransactions exceeded revenue expectations and the Company has continued to expand the Minecraft server offerings. The Company also began pursuing the acquisition of additional Minecraft servers that were already established to begin scaling this effort.

In December of 2017, the Company began exploring potential partnerships with various franchise opportunities related to both LAN centers and Virtual Reality centers. Financial analysis and research on these opportunities is ongoing.

On March 21, 2018, the Company acquired Crypto Strategies Group, Inc. for consideration of $500. The Company intends to diversify its business and enter into the cryptocurrency market through such acquisition.

On December 12, 2018, the Company dissolved Crypto Strategies Group, Inc.

Technology

In 2016, the Company completed its 2.0 tournament platform and thereafter ran dozens of robotic internal test tournaments and held numerous free-to-play tournaments on large scales with its partner The Syndicate, the owner of the world’s longest running online gaming guild that has 1,200 members worldwide. Good Gaming conducted two closed public beta tournaments of hundreds of participants in May 2016 in order to fully vet the system. After making roughly 100 fixes and changes to the system, it now runs smoothly. The system is designed to scale to 512,000 concurrent competitors. The Company has updated the system to handle team tournaments, which will further expand its opportunity to popular titles that have tens of millions of active players and has recently launched titles that have the potential for cross-platform play among Gaming PC, Microsoft Xbox and Sony PlayStation.

In 2017, the Company ran hundreds of tournaments on a regular basis with a dedicated customer base of over 30,000 members. Additionally, the Company expanded its website by offering content relevant to the member base with information relating to game play strategy and game news. This generated nearly 100,000 unique visits per month. In an effort to monetize that traffic, the Company employed the use of Google display advertising and tested a subscription model. After careful evaluation of the Company’s strategy, management decided to move away from free tournaments and custom content and focus on growing and monetizing our Minecraft server, which has grown substantially in popularity. This decision was a result of comprehensive competitive analysis and evaluations made in how the esports industry was shifting in its space. Tournaments and custom content are currently suspended while the Company grows revenue and focuses on expanding its efforts with Minecraft. The Company is also aggressively evaluating several business models and acquisition opportunities to resume its previous success as it is related to tournaments.

Business Strategy

In the past, our management team’s strategy was to be a full-service company providing best in class tournaments, the best platform on which they are played, and content that is all about the esports world. We have looked at this strategy and have changed the way we view our business.

It’s our ambition and strategy to be great at providing a place for amateurs to play. By focusing on what the gaming universe is lacking, it allows us to focus on the promotion of teams, leagues and competition. We will continue with this strategy because over this past year, we have been successful in managing the tournaments. We intend to begin with local servers and expand organically from there. We recognize there are millions of players who desire to compete within the gaming community.

Minecraft is another business strategy. We have a well-established server and will continue to devote resources to developing and acquiring other Minecraft assets. We feel that we have learned how to monetize this and will be able to continue to grow and have it be a meaningful part of our business strategy.

In our evaluation of our current business model, we have decided not to pursue the operation as a tournament platform. We feel there are too many great platforms that allow complete integration via APIs to run our tournaments. These companies have spent and continued spending millions of dollars establishing their platforms. It’s what they do very well and they rely on companies such as Good Gaming to run and host tournaments.

We previously developed our own code and have a platform that really is quite good to handle tournaments but needs some improvement to be commercially ready. In fact, it’s this platform that we have used up to now to run our Hearthstone tournaments. Although it is functional, the challenge is that it costs too much capital to maintain and improve the platform. At this point, it’s an asset we have and we may try to monetize this at some point.

We cannot provide any assurance that our focus on hosting the esports tournaments will be successful and profitable in the future or at all.

Insurance Policies

We do have an insurance policy through Berkley Insurance Company with the Insurance coverage of $1,000,000.

Employees

We have no employees and five contractors working on the Good Gaming project. This group is made up of programmers, tournament administrators, and social media experts. Pursuant to our Management Services Agreement with ViaOne Services LLC, certain employees of ViaOne are deemed to be consultants of the Company. As the process matures, we plan to hire most of these people and additional staff as full-time employees of the Company.

Offices

Our executive offices are located at 415 McFarlan Rd, Suite 108, Kennett Square, PA 19501. Our telephone number is (888) 295-7279.

ITEM3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

HGT Capital LLC (“HGT”) has filed a lawsuit against the Company, claiming breach of contract due to a default on a $50,000 junior loan made by HGT to HDS International Corp., our predecessor, in 2015. The Company has retained counsel to represent it on this matter and responded with affirmative defenses in the Supreme Court of New York. HGT’s motion for summary judgment is scheduled for oral argument on May 31, 2018. The Company intends to vigorously contest such action. On September 21, 2018, the Company entered into a modification agreement with HGT with respect to HGT’s convertible promissory note. As part of this modification agreement, HGT also agreed to withdraw, with prejudice, the lawsuit that it had filed against the Company and the court has dismissed the case.

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

On July 18, 2012, a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) was filed by us together with our 2012 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) relating to 30,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, to be offered and sold to accounts of eligible persons.

On April 30, 2018, the holder of one (1) share of Series C Preferred Stock of the Company that entitles such holder to vote a majority of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the Company’s approved by written consent that the Company adopts the 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”) under which the Board may decide at its sole discretion to grant equity awards to certain employees and consultants as set forth in the 2018 Plan. The description of the 2018 Plan does not purport to be complete and is incorporated herein by reference to a current report on form 8-k filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 4, 2018.

Equity Compensation Plan

We do not have any other equity compensation plan at this time.

Penny Stock Regulations and Restrictions on Marketability

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5. Securities are registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system which provides the current price and volume information. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading, (b) contains a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws, (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price, (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions, (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks, and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

The broker-dealer must also provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock, and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling their shares of our common stock.

Common Stock

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize us to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value. Each holder of our common stock is entitled to one (1) vote for each share held of record on all voting matters we present for a vote of stockholders, including the election of directors. Holders of common stock have no cumulative voting rights or preemptive rights to purchase or subscribe for any stock or other securities, and there are no conversion rights or redemption or sinking fund provisions with respect to our common stock. All shares of our common stock are entitled to share equally in dividends from sources legally available when, and if, declared by our Board of Directors.

Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue additional shares of common stock not to exceed the amount authorized by the Articles of Incorporation, on such terms and conditions and for such consideration as the Board may deem appropriate without further stockholder action.

In the event of our liquidation or dissolution, all shares of our common stock are entitled to share equally in our assets available for distribution to stockholders. However, the rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of our common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of preferred stock that have been issued or shares of preferred stock that our Board of Directors may decide to issue in the future.

Preferred Stock

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize us to issue up to 2,500,350 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share. Of the 2,500,000 authorized shares of preferred stock, the total number of shares of Series A Preferred Shares the Corporation shall have the authority to issue is Two-Hundred -Forty-Nine Thousand-Nine-Hundred-Ninety-Nine (249,999), with a stated par value of $0.001 per share, the total number of shares of Series B Preferred Shares the Company shall have the authority to issue is Two-Hundred Thousand (200,000), with a stated par value of $0.001 per share, the total number of shares of Series C Preferred Shares the Company shall have the authority to issue is One (1), with a stated par value of $0.001 per share, and the total number of shares of Series D Preferred Shares the Company shall have the authority to issue is Three Hundred and Fifty (350), with a stated par value of $0.001 per share. Our Board of Directors is authorized, without further action by the shareholders, to issue shares of preferred stock and to fix the designations, number, rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences and sinking fund terms. We believe that the Board of Directors’ power to set the terms of, and our ability to issue, preferred stock will provide flexibility in connection with possible financing or acquisition transactions in the future. The issuance of preferred stock, however, could adversely affect the voting power of holders of common stock and decrease the amount of any liquidation distribution to such holders. The presence of outstanding preferred stock could also have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of our Company.

As of March 12, 2019, we had 7,500 shares of our Series A preferred stock issued and outstanding, 68,997 shares of Series B preferred stock issued and outstanding, 1 share of our Series C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, and 0 share of our Series D Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.

The 7,500 issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of common stock at a rate of 20 common stock shares for each Series A Preferred Share. The 69,197 issued and outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of common stock at a rate of 200 common stock shares for each one Series B Preferred Share. Of the issued and outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, 47,881 shares are owned by Lincoln Acquisition Corporation. If all of our Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock were converted into shares of common stock, the number of issued and outstanding shares of our common stock would increase to 13,949,400 shares.

We had six (6) issued and outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock that were convertible into shares of common stock at a rate of 125% of the conversion amount at a price that is the lower of 110% of the volume weighted average prices (“VWAP”) of the common stock on the issuance date of the preferred stock, the VWAP of the common stock on the conversion date, or the VWAP of the common stock on the date prior to the conversion date. The shares of Series D Preferred Stock were convertible beginning six months from issuance date of the preferred stock.

On September 21, 2018, RedDiamond modified the agreement with the Company. RedDiamond and the Company agreed that the Preferred Shares were convertible into Common Stock (the “Conversion Shares”) at the lower of the Fixed Conversion Price ($.06) or at the VWAP which were defined as the average of the five (5) lowest closing prices during the 20 days prior to conversion; for the avoidance of doubt, RedDiamond did not waived its right to the 25% Conversion Premium as defined in the COD. The Company had the obligation to redeem 46.531 of the Preferred Shares (which represents 50% of the Preferred Shares Owned by RedDiamond) at 110% of the Stated Value of $46,531 by making three equal payments of $17,061 on October 15, 2018, November 15, 2018 and December 15, 2018. On January 10, 2019, RedDiamond converted the six shares of Series D Preferred Stock into common stock of the Company.

Options

We have not issued and do not have outstanding any options to purchase shares of our common stock.

Registration Rights

As of December 31, 2018, there are no other outstanding registration rights or similar agreements.

Convertible Securities

On April 15, 2015, the Company issued a convertible debenture with the principal amount of $100,000 to HGT Capital, LLC (“HGT”), a non-related party. During the quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Company received the first $50,000 in payment. The remaining $50,000 payment would be made at the request of the borrower. No additional payments had been made as of September 30, 2018. On September 21, 2018, the Company entered into a modification agreement with HGT with respect to the convertible promissory note which has a balance of $107,238. Pursuant to such modification agreement, all defaults were waived and it was agreed that such note will convert to common stock of the Company at a 25% discount to the market price rather than the default rate. HGT also agreed to certain sale restrictions which limit the amount of shares that they can sell in any month for the next three months. HGT also agreed to dismiss, with prejudice, the lawsuit with respect to the convertible debenture that it had filed against the company. On November 29, 2018, the HGT converted $6,978 of the note into the Company’s common stock.

On June 29, 2017, Iconic Holdings, LLC entered into a 10% Convertible Promissory Note with the Company in the principal amount of $27,000. Upon the execution of this note, the sum of $9,000 has been remitted and delivered to the Company. On August 14, 2017, Iconic Holdings, LLC remitted and delivered to the Company another $9,000. The Company is only required to repay the amount funded and the Company is not required to repay any unfunded portion of this Note. As of March 31, 2018 the Company has received a total $18,000 of the $27,000 principal amount. On April 16, 2018, the note was fully converted into the Company’s common stock.

The Company entered into a Line of Credit agreement (the “LOC”) with ViaOne. This LOC dated as of September 27, 2018 (the “Effective Date”), was entered into by and between the Company and ViaOne Services, LLC (“ViaOne”). The Company had an immediate need for additional capital and has asked ViaOne to make a new loan in an initial amount of $25,000 on the Effective Date (the “New Loan”). The Company may need additional capital and ViaOne has agreed, pursuant to this LOC, to provide for additional advances, although ViaOne shall have no obligation to any additional loans. Any further New Loans shall be memorialized in a promissory note with substantially the same terms as the New Loan and shall be secured by all of the assets of the Company. On or before the Effective Date, the Company may request in writing to ViaOne that it loan the Company additional sums of up to $250,000 and within five days of such request(s), Viaone shall have the right, but no obligation, to make additional loans to the Company and the Company shall in turn immediately issue a note in the amount of such loan. In consideration for making the New Loan, the Company entered into a security agreement whereby ViaOne received a senior security interest in all of the assets of the Company.

Related Party Transactions

On or around April 7, 2016, Silver Linings Management LLC, which is owned by the Company’s CEO, David Dorwart, funded the Company in an amount of $13,440 in the form of convertible debentures secured by certain high-powered gaming machines purchased from XIDAX. Such note bore an interest rate of 10% per annum payable in cash or kind at the option of the Company, matured on April 1, 2018, and was convertible into Series B Preferred shares at the option of the holder at any time as long as all or part of the convertible debentures was outstanding.

On November 30, 2016, ViaOne purchased a Secured Promissory Note (the “Note”) equal to a maximum initial principal amount of $150,000 issued by the Company to ViaOne. As additional advances were made by ViaOne to the Company, the principal amount of the Note was increased to $225,000 and $363,000 by two amendments dated January 31, 2017 and March 1, 2017, respectively.

On May 5, 2017, ViaOne delivered a default notice to the Company pursuant to Section 6 of the Note Purchase Agreement but had subsequently extended the due date and had increased the funding up to One Million ($1,000,000) dollars. After giving the Company a fifteen(15)-day notice period to cure the default under the Stock Pledge Agreement dated November 30, 2016 by and among the Company, CMG and ViaOne (the “Pledge Agreement”), ViaOne took possession of the Series C Stock, which was subject of the Pledge Agreement.

The Note as amended, included an unpaid amount of $363,000, but was increased from time to time due to additional advances provided to the Company by ViaOne in the respective amounts of $25,000 on May 2, 2017, $25,000 on May 4, 2017, $75,000 on May 31, 2017, and $85,000 on June 30, 2017 (the “Additional Advances”). The Additional Advances increased the total unpaid balance to $573,000 as of July 1, 2017.

Between July 1, 2017 and September 30, 2017, ViaOne provided additional funding in the form of a short-term loan of $84,880 to be repaid no later than May 1, 2018 and the loan held its interest at the rate of 12% per annum.

As of December 31, 2017, ViaOne provided additional funding in accordance with the extension of the Note Purchase Agreement on an as-needed basis and would continue to provide funding until one million dollars has been exhausted. As of December 31, 2018, the total amount we owed to ViaOne was $1,316,484.

On January 8, 2018, the Company executed the fourth amendment (the “Amendment”) the Note which was originally issued to ViaOne on November 30, 2016. The Amendment included a provision, whereby ViaOne would have the opportunity to convert all or part of the Note into common stock of the Company at the Conversion Rate as defined in the following formula:

Conversion Amount means, with respect to the Note, the dollar amount of the Note that is being converted into shares of the Company’s common stock. “Conversion Price” means, with respect to the Note, the lower of (i) $0.05 per share; or (ii) the lower of the VWAP of the common stock on the Trading Day prior to the Conversion Date or the VWAP of the common stock on the Conversion Date, subject to change as set forth in the Amendment. The Note now effectively has the same terms as the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock.

On September 27, 2018, the Company and ViaOne entered into a Line of Credit Agreement (the “LOC Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company issued a secured promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) with the initial principal amount of $25,000 to ViaOne in exchange for a loan of $25,000 (the “Initial Loan Amount”). In accordance with this Agreement, the Company may request ViaOne to provide loans of up to $250,000, including the Initial Loan Amount, and ViaOne has the right to decide whether it will honor such request. The Initial Loan Amount shall become due on September 30, 2019 (the “Maturity Date”) and bears an interest rate of 8.0% per annum. The unpaid principal and interest of the Promissory Note after the Maturity Date shall accrue interest at a rate of 18.0% per annum. The principal amount of the Promissory Note may increase from time to time up to $250,000 in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement. In connection with the Agreement and Promissory Note, the Company and ViaOne executed a security agreement dated September 27, 2018 whereby the Company granted ViaOne a security interest in all of its assets, including without limitation cash, inventory, account receivables, real property and intellectual properties, to secure the repayment of the loans made pursuant to the LOC Agreement and Promissory Note.

The Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer is the Chairman of ViaOne.

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchases

During each month within the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, neither we nor any “affiliated purchaser”, as that term is defined in Rule 10b-18(a)(3) under the Exchange Act, repurchased any of our common stock or other securities.

ITEM 6. Selected Financial Data

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information under this item.

ITEM 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion on the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018. This means that our auditors believe there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have generated little revenue although revenue is anticipated to grow as we have completed the development of our website, sourced out suppliers for products to sell and sourced out customers to buy our products. Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than operations. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments by others in our company and the revenue we generate from the sales of our products. We must raise cash to continue our project and build our operations.

Plan of Operation – Milestones

We are at an early stage of our new business operations. Over the next twelve months, our primary target milestones include:

Limited operating history and need for additional capital

There is limited historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance relating to our new business direction. We have generated little revenue. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services and products.

Results of Operations

December 31, 2018 as compared to December 31, 2017

We have generated $109,575 in revenue in 2018 and $38,090 in revenue in the fiscal year of 2017, which reflects an increase of $71,485 or 100%.

Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2018 were $990,445 compared with $988,225 for the year ended December 31, 2017. The increase of $2,221 in operating expenses was attributed to an increase in depreciation and amortization of assets in 2017 and contract labor and professional fees for day to day operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded a net loss of $991,693 compared with a net loss of $1,379,647 for the year ended December 31, 2017. The decrease of $387,954 in net loss was attributed to the change in value of the Company’s derivative liabilities and gain on debt settlement.

As of December 31, 2018, the Company’s cash balance consisted of $12,449 compared to cash balance of $61,037 as of December 31, 2017. The decrease in the cash balance was attributed to the financing that we received for day-to-day activities. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had $501,302 in assets compared to total assets of $821,897 as at December 31, 2017. The decrease in assets was attributable to the amortization of the assets purchased during the acquisition of Good Gaming, Inc.

As of December 31, 2018, the Company had total liabilities of $2,116,954 compared with total liabilities of $1,711,488 as of December 31, 2017. The increase in liabilities was attributable to increase in financing and in derivative liabilities.

As of December 31, 2018, the Company has a working capital deficit of $2,094,505 compared with a working capital deficit of $1,649,751 as of December 31, 2017 with the increase in the working capital deficit attributed to an increase in financing the Company received for day to day operating costs.

Cash flow from Operating Activities

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company used $739,684 of cash for operating activities compared to the use of cash in an amount of $797,107 for operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2017. The decrease of $57,423 in the use of cash for operating activities was attributed to change in the Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities and Gain on debt settlement.

Cash flow from Investing Activities

During the years ended December 31, 2018, the Company had $26,250 in cash used in investing activities compared to $1,552 for the year ended December 31, 2017. The increase of $24,698 was due to the Company purchasing MineCade, Olimpo, and HardCore servers.

Cash flow from Financing Activities

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company received $739,684 of proceeds from financing activities compared to $811,796 during the year ended December 31, 2017. The decrease of $94,450 in proceeds from financing activities was due to the sale of preferred stock.

Going Concern

We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive acquisitions and activities. For these reasons, our auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements that they have substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements without further financing.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.

Future Financings

We will continue to rely on equity sales of our preferred shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuance of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders.

There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our operations and other activities.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our consolidated financial statements. Management’s estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

We have implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and we do not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information under this item.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and

Board of Directors of Good Gaming, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Good Gaming, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis of Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing and opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Substantial Doubt About the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company’s continuing operating losses, working capital deficiency and accumulated deficit raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of the financial statements. Management’s plans are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to the Financial Statements

(expressed in U.S. dollars)

1. Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

Good Gaming, Inc. (Formerly HDS International Corp.) (the “Company”) was incorporated on November 3, 2008 under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company is a leading tournament gaming platform and online destination targeting over 250 million e-sports players and participants worldwide that want to compete at the high school or college level. A substantial portion of the Company’s activities has involved developing a business plan and establishing contacts and visibility in the marketplace and the Company has not generated any substantial revenue to date. Beginning in 2018, the Company began deriving revenue by providing transaction verification services within the digital currency networks of cryptocurrencies. However, on December 12, 2018, the Company discontinued such transaction verification services by dissolving Crypto Strategies Group, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary.

Going Concern

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has generated minimal revenues to date and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $2,094,505 and an accumulated deficit of $5,880,713. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company’s future business. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Reverse Stock Split

On February 17, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a reverse split of its common and preferred shares on a 1 for 1,000 basis. The Articles of Incorporation were amended decreasing the authorized common shares from 2,000,000,000 to 100,000,000 and decreasing the authorized preferred shares from 450,000,000 to 2,250,000. A special meeting of the Company’s shareholders was not required since written consent was obtained by the stockholders who held the majority of the outstanding voting stock. The Reverse Stock Split became effective on June 14, 2017.

All references in this Annual Report regarding the number of preferred and common shares, price per share and weighted average shares of common stock have been adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split on a retroactive basis for all prior periods presented, unless otherwise noted, including reclassifying an amount equal to the reduction in par value of common and preferred stock to additional paid-in capital.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the fair values of convertible debentures, derivative liability, stock-based compensation, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior-year amounts to conform to the current period presentation.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturities of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. Amounts receivable from credit card processors are also considered cash equivalents because they are both short-term and highly liquid in nature.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are carried at the purchased cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. Measurement of an impairment loss for long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets that management expects to hold and use is based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

Beneficial Conversion Features

From time to time, the Company may issue convertible notes that may contain an embedded beneficial conversion feature. A beneficial conversion feature exists on the date a convertible note is issued when the fair value of the underlying common stock to which the note is convertible into is in excess of the remaining unallocated proceeds of the note after first considering the allocation of a portion of the note proceeds to the fair value of the warrants, if related warrants have been granted. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature is recorded as a debt discount with a corresponding amount to additional paid in capital. The debt discount is amortized to interest expense over the life of the note using the effective interest method.

Derivative Liability

From time to time, the Company may issue equity instruments that may contain an embedded derivative instrument which may result in a derivative liability. A derivative liability exists on the date the equity instrument is issued when there is a contingent exercise provision. The derivative liability is records at is fair value calculated by using an option pricing model. The fair value of the derivative liability is then calculated on each balance sheet date with the corresponding gains and losses recorded in the statement of operations.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. At December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had 10,000,000 and 8,779,119 potentially dilutive shares from outstanding convertible debentures, respectively.

Income Taxes

Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. Pursuant to ASC 740, the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years. Unrecognized tax positions, if ever recognized in the financial statements, are recorded in the statement of operations as part of the income tax provision. Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on uncertain tax positions, if any, as part of the income tax provision. The Company has no liability for uncertain tax positions. Unrecognized tax positions, if ever recognized in the financial statements, are recorded in the statement of operations as part of the income tax provision. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on uncertain tax positions, if any, as part of the income tax provision. The Company has no liability for uncertain tax positions.

On December 22, 2017, tax reform legislation known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “U.S. Tax Reform Act”) was enacted in the United States. The U.S. Tax Reform Act, among other things, reduced the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% beginning in 2018. On December 22, 2017, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on how to account for the effects of the U.S. Tax Reform Act under ASC 740.

Financial Instruments

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. It establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument is categorized within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. It prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were presented on the Company’s balance sheet as at December 31, 2018 and 2017 as follows:
