The project will be hosted at kotr.org (kotr= king of the ring).

See ya there soon!

So far I created 10 units each with 10 rarity levels:

Peasant
Gnome
Thief
Barbarian
Wolf Pack
Beholder
Furious Bear
Rider
Spider
Guardian

Today I will add the other 90 army cards and then start building the treasure system code.

After that, I will build the player accounts functions so people can log in and start collecting cards for future gameplay.

*** then... ***

Sending a unit to the  "Military" will add Card XP to your 5 minute collections.  Sending to "Marketplace" will add Gold income.  Gold + Card XP (CXP) will be used to upgrade cards and get better incomes and also when Arena is built, battle other players for treasure, gold,
CXP and Player XP (PXP).

Once Military and Marketplace are done, I will start the btc payout system...

Much more to come...

I am open to ideas on how to do payouts too.  What do you all think would be cool?  We could have 10 pools... Each increasing daily until the entry limit is hit.  So pool 1 pays at 10k entries, #2 at 20k entries, #3 at 40k entries, #4 at 80k entries, etc.  

I will be starting development this weekend...

Can you give us some preview screenshots?

Will it be something similar to https://www.augmentorsgame.com/ that are using the Blockchain based technology to track ownership on the game cards?

I am glad you went with Bitcoin and not some counter party token or some other Alt coin, because we need killer applications and games to stimulate a demand for bitcoins.  Wink


BTC works best because I can fund 100,000,000 satoshi (1 btc) initially.  0.1% gets added each day to prize pool for starting (100k satoshi) and that guarantees 1000 days of game funding.  Only 10% of prize pool is paid so the prizes increase each day, approaching a full 100k sat prize pool when game fund hits 1 million satoshi (10% of 1000000 = 100k).   Adding in sales and ad revenue will increase payous beyond that.   

Prizes paid on A) raffles (buy with tickets or gold) B) revenue share for members with at least 1 puchase (gems) and C) participation prizes.

It will be a small amount to start, but will grow.  People will play for fun and others who are crypto fans will likely play to collect Bitcoin.  The prizes B & C are split based on participation and number of people claiming.  The raffle prize will be ongoing (ie, prize is paid when there are 800,000 entries, so that is the prize that would be bigger as it grows like a jackpot)

As for blockchain tracking of cards, i think that would be a cool idea, but i did not look at it that way because of the resource costs associated with tx fees, etc.  Perhaps in a later version that would be possible.  Essentially, the game is "just for fun gaming" that offers a "faucet" type of payment system as well as bigger prizes/jackpots.

I plan to register a domain this weekend and start building Jan 19th.  I will build some feature testing for people to dink with while I build the game.  More to follow

Hi there,

how far are you with the game development so far? What are your goals for the future, any thoughts about fundraising and rapid development of the game?

Best regards,
Janis

Right now game dev is just my formulas for cards, xp, etc.  I have 100 armies with 10 rarrity levels (1000 cards) and the last time I built the game it only took a month or so to build the Alpha version.  As for rapid development, I am not sure that the need is there as the game is designed to take years to achieve max level.  Fundraising... The game will has guild/clan and friend referral bonus so advertising will be mostly organic.  More likely, the web version would be the prototype and we could raise fund to do an actual android/ios version and hire programmers to develop that as I am not an apk/ios dev. 

What are your thoughts on it?

I know this is still on development stage but same as being asked above, would you mind on posting up some screenshots about this card game?
I might have the time to be a alpha-tester.

***edit***
If interested, PM me.  I am just starting to build the game logic so this is still months away from being playable.  Anyone who PMs me about this will get an alpha-tester invite/account and can get a head start on getting prizes/payouts.

I am looking for people interested in building/testing/playing a game with me that has crypto (BTC) prizes.  I built a concept game some time ago called "King of the Ring" but due to its popularity (and lack of resources) the server couldn't handle the load and also epay went scam and the project failed.

The game will be a simple PHP/MySQL driven game with timers on actions to balance the load.  I will initially be using game-icons (website) for the card graphics and coding the game logic based on my ideas and people suggestions.

This is a hobby project that could turn into something bigger.  BTC prizes will be paid from funds I donate and also from ad revenues earned in the game and a portion of sales.

More will be posted over as progress continues!
