Topic: Get free bitcoins playing a free game The Ponz (Read 11228 times)

Yes on Saturday I will be paying last months prizes

cool game like a superman
and we can earn some BTC from here 

i download this game hust a few minutes ago
i will try it
can we really earn some bits from there?

Nice game... i will try this game, any minimum Withdraw requirements ??

Also another issue I had was that advertisements cover up the leaderboard area so that I couldn't submit my score

Will you update us when payments are sent out, or is there a certain date when they are automatically processed?

Still paying but paying every month

Can anyone verify whether this thing is still paying or if it's completely just died out

December Prizes paid.

Get it downloaded and start playing now while it is FREE 

Well, I'd also be interested in trying the online version.

If I deserve such privilege, please pm the link.

May the Ponz always be in your device.

I also would like to know , Interessted on playing
@OP , what are the used Programming languags you used to write this game ?

This game still paying?

All prizes will be paid Weekend.

ive placed first and second a few times and never have received any prizes why? [email protected]

Gravitate said prizes would be temporarily halted while they rolled out a fiat payment system.



Sounds good, I guess. Let's see how it goes.

Yea I guess so    or maybe because I'am using the Web based one I don't get paid ?

ya know what a Ponzi scheme is right? And the name of the game is ponZ...

I'm guessing he will see this soon. Its a cute little game... not sure how it could be expanded... reminds me of those helicopter clicker games.

I'm assuming no more payouts since he hasn't made a payout post and I've been on top of the list.

You just download the game on your Android or iOS & play it , you should be on the Top players then he pays you
I tried the Browser version which he sent me on PM , the game isn't so difficult but ... yeah , need some efforts 

how to get free btc from your site?

Yes, addicted is a good word. I'm playing it right now actually.
Maybe the owner should have a little funding handed to him, and keep this game going. I would donate, but well, I'm a bitcoin hobo.

Its a nice little game. I had to put it away as I found myself getting addicted to it, lol..

It's a good game, great idea.. i've been playing the game out of boredom too. Haha

I think that was it... BTC funds depleted? Or is it just easier for him to pay out in fiat?

Fiat transaction fees are higher than BTC .... So why go back to fiat?

Are there any updates? Like did you get the payment updated and are you still doing daily payouts?

sounds good. I will give it a try.

We are planning it to get more people playing and downloading the game. The implementation is pretty easy. When we have downloads and can recoup some expenses we will be paying larger bitcoin prizes than FIAT. This strategy is only to get the game popular for non crypto people. What do you think?

If you don't mind me asking, how are you planning to do so? Users might start trying to aim for the fiat prizes (if the implementation allows it), instead of exploring the bitcoin side of things.

Prizes Paid but now prizes will be on hold. As I am going to start paying FIAT money also for prizes

Any new about a browser version?

Hi yes I got a new s5 and it works fine. Any other info about why it doesn't work? Error messages?


Also I had to download Adobe air to play it for sue

The game is pretty cool. The graphics could use an upgrade though. Nice one OP!

ouch!

Only today I have learned about this game. I have just downloaded and installed it, but my device is not able to run it because it's not compatible with adobe air I was really looking forward to play The Ponz, it seems to be so cool...

(I really have to start thinking about buying a new cellphone... mine is so old and clunker already... shame on me)

But, anyway, thank you for the game.

Success!

Hey Mate

Any luck finding an S5 to test it on ? Very odd.. If its working on other Samsung it should be ok on S5. This is like the only app I've found so far that does not load.

I would be happy to work with you to debug why its not working if you have the time (and can confirm it is not just my phone).

Just for reference I am using 4.4.2, kernel: 3.4.0-1626427 and it is not rooted.

thanks

These prizes wioll be paid in the morning. Let me know if you think I am missing anyone as we are still trying to work out we are capturing the right data on the server

The Fonz or Fonzi aka Happy Days

So

The Ponz or PONZI

OP you need to get a new name or many will say whatever you are doing is PONZI a death name in business circles and folks go to jail for PONZI stuff.

Rename it IMO

GOOD LUCK

what tablet are you using please?


Also prizes from the last 3 leaderboard high scores will be paid Thursday there is a delay getting the informaiton from the server.

Could you make a browser version? My tablets screen are bad and it not react to my touch. And when i try to submit my score the app just crash.

Exactly... A lot of people call bitcoin a ponzi scheme. Well those that dont understand it. So the name of the game made me feel content at a way of throwing it back in their face

Why the name "The Ponz" (Ponzi?) though?

What is the minimum? Or the echange rate?

Thank you for making The Ponz game:
Is there a Windows desktop version?

i like the idea to include prize in games, that's just cool.

I pmed you a link. the pc gem is not public yet though so thats why not public on here

I would like to have a PC version please ?   
I don't have iOS ,Android at the moment . I use Bluestacks on PC (Android emulator) but I got issues copying my BitCoin adress etc .. thanks

Basically every 2 days the Leaderboard is re set and the prizes re net after. the last time the Leaderboard was reset ws this morning and the prizes will be paid for that tomorrow and announced on here. Right now the prizes are delayed but soon they should be within an hour of the leaderboard resetting. The Leaderboard resets 3AM London time every 2 days.

Hello, when we start getting BitCoins ? and what should I do ? only Sumbit my score then get bitcoins ?    thanks

its awesome i play

Seems pretty awesome so far. Just submitted a score to the leader board. #5 so far!

sounds good 

Fantastic!

Can confirm that prizes are sent! Hope to see more stuff like this, great way for people to get involved.

OK well there will will be upgrades to it soon anyway. But enjoy the prizes. Leader board will get reset tonight!
If you all can rate the app it will help because the more popular it gets the increase on popularity bitcoin gets

Now each new game is a flying one... IMHO maybe a game like temple run will be better, also the physics is not so good! But as i told i really love the idea and i downloaded it for ipad

For sure I will do this. It's what I intended anyway. Does anyone have any good ideas what they would like in the upgrade? )

Great stuff as always, thanks.

While we all most likely patiently wait for the new versions, with the Ponz throwing cryptocoins at enemies and the such (read "FUN"), I also encourage you to keep the game backward compatible as this first version is  (i.e. I'd love to keep on playing newer versions it in my ios 5.x device).

S.

I sent you a pa there is a Web version available just don't want it public as yet

Erm LOL really? eating bit coins and WorldAidCons flying through the sky and giving away free bit coin prizes is like flappy bird?

Its a flying game yes but what are the other similarities?

Technically you have Android and iOS emulators for PC, so I assume you should be able to at least run the program; actually playing it however, might be another story, depending on what the app requires to work and whether or not the emulator can provide it. Oh, and you probably also need a pretty decent PC for this.

Nope.
It is only for iOS and Android.

Can you play this on a computer? I don't have a phone which can play those games.

Really love the idea but not sure about why copy flappybird

Sorry for not updating guys we have had issues with the leaderboard not resetting. But we have had a suiccess and now started paying prizes again so get playing.

Score   BTC/WAC address

As not many scores were on the leaderboard I upped the stakes for the lower positions

Thanks so much :O) you can win from sharing too.

Hi,
Good job OP! Keep on the good work! More games like this one should continue to pop up
Will try this one for sure. Would love to tip you with what I earn on this game
Will share it on FB I have several proffiles on FB with up to 5000 friends so I can atract people to it
BR

no runs perfect on Iphone 5S.

More prizes coming

My iPhone just died and ordered one of these. Will check it out on Monday when it arrives I don't know anyone else with an S5 to check it's not just yours. Either way we will address the problem but we need to know if others are having the same problem on an s5?

Ok this issue is getting dealt with but this particular issue will be dealt with next week. The leaderboard and getting people prizes which were promised are the main priority right now.
We will be keeping a close watch and I have a few white hat friends who are currently playing with this concept but touch wood nothing so far. however I am sure some clever person will somehow manage to get a cheat in there so we will have to run around fixing it.


In the coming versions of the game he will be blowing things up with exploding crypto currencies so he is not all good.

Great Stuff, thanks.

While I personally do not object the publication of names, some may object their name being associated to a specific bitcoin address (which anyhow should supposedely be known for any legit transaction--- Furthermore, people can put whatever name they wish, right?). So bottomline, I tend to think publication of names is okay. Let's hear what the rest thinks.

As soon as updates on the app allow me to do something in facebook (as I mentioned the facebook button just crashes the app in iOS 5.1.1), I'll be happy to comment on that.

So the leaderboard reset over the weekend and it should do gain this morning at 4am. I have payed the top 10 score with prizes (see above). This is just to start and I am not paying prizes for funniest comments as the leaderboard is not set up properly yet to do this.

I have a few questions for players. Do you mind if I post your names next to the addresses when I announce winners?

If you share your game on Facebook I also want to reward you. Does anyone have any ideas how I can get proof from you that you shared on your Facebook? Maybe someone has a better understanding of social media than me.

Anyway enjoy your prizes and the leaderboard bugs should be sorted this week so there will be even more prizes coming soon.

Sounds good, and I will give it a try.

It sounds interesting, more games like this should be released, and better if those accepts Doges, just looking for a $1/coin

Is it just me or does he look more of a bad guy? http://prntscr.com/3yhzzx

hahahaha I was trying to quote the developer's anouncement on prize dates, not the rooting jailbraiking thing!

Anyhow, that calls for a discussion on sound programming practices. I have not programmed for iPad, but guess you can make it harder for pirates to cheat?

I thought for example, that gameplay sequence could be somewhat "signed" using the public key of a key pair only to be verified by the server's owning a private key. Hey, just extrapolating ideas from my PGP days.

Speculation, but interesting one, isn't it?

Can't wait for the competitive stage to begin!

Nice game Op!
This will definitely attract some people to bitcoin I think!
I will download this on my phone when I can and will give it a try.
But I was wondering does the top player in the leaderboard get the physical bitcoins?

This looks cool, I don't have a device to play though. I'm sure rooted and jailbroken devices could cheat and might cost you if they can.

Hello we have found the bug in the Leaderboard so to be safe we have said prizes start 7th july. Don't play too much before please or tell anyone... We want people playing for prizes not only for fun.

 I am not trying to scam anyone. Its a free game and you get free prizes. We need more people into cryptos and this is a good way of doing it.  How do you evaluate Scam from that? I am very interested to hear please.

Hi I am hoping to start prizes as of thurday latest. To start the prizes will be Total of 0.01 every 2 days to start with and see how this goes.

This someone sounds like the flappybird scam.

How much bitcoins can we get with this?

I will check this out thanks for input

If you did this you would certainly deserve the prizes but I don't think it's possible. Anyhow you can leave a funny comment and have a chance of winning.

Anyone have luck running it on Samsung s5 ?
nothing happens when i click it it an attempt to start the app...

can we use our asic bitcoin miners to bot the game to get a high leader-board ranking and payout?

It needs the permission because it has a link to another game on there which is deemed for adults only.

Thanks for the bug of the Facebook button I will see what I can do about that. Also the prizes will be manually sent by me for now. When we have a few more wallet apps we can possibly link up the game we can do this automatically. So don't worry about having a wallet app just leave your details and I will send prizes. That is when we get the leaderboard refreshing which will be next week .

Why does the app need the permission that it needs?

again me; so firstly to the developer:

General play flows well. There might be a bit of a problem with the game running in the iPad 1, and trying to push on the facebook button anytime. App crashes then. If it helps at all, I do have the facebook app installed too. I really don't know how these things work, but anyhow I thank you for keeping the game backwards compatible for us oldie iPad owners

[as a contrast, some BTC wallet apps need you too have at least an ipad 2, I think]


--- As for the other post on suspicion on my first post, you know, I commend skepticism (it's the base of the bitcoin protocol after all!)..

Then again, I *had* to do a first post about anything, right?

Based on whatever criteria you deem pertinent, we might be getting too suspicious because it's like saying:  1, 2, 3.... hey... TWO PRIME NUMBERS one after the other. Suspicious. :-D

Regards,
S.

Seems like a cool game and all, but shouldn't the hero's name be Satoshi?

Anyway, that's a great idea; we need more of this sort of thing to spread the word. On the other hand, without them having information of what to use bitcoins for / where to use them to get what they want, many will probably just ignore it. I imagine you won't be able to pay out much for each prize, but perhaps link the game somehow to shops or auction sites that use bitcoin? This would immediately make the connection for people that this is something they can easily use to buy stuff with, instead of relying on fiat, and not just some geek only thing.

The prizes are every 2 days. so if you win the prizes are unlimited.

First time in the forum, post count = 1 and you comment on a game?  Suspect.

But back to the topic. Should it not say, earn real money somewhere? Or would people just play the game, and not know it?

Just thought I'd ask.

Great, addictive game.

It's well worth the 5 stars.

(forgive this old man, but reminds me in a whymsical way of all those great Windows 3.1 games... man, the memories ;-) )

Kudos.

Glad to see crypto finally hitting iOS, keep up the work! Can we have some more in-depth information about the app though? What is the minimum amount of coins you can withdraw from that app?

how can user withdraw his bitcoin? there is a minimum amount?
sounds good. will give it a try

Win Free Bitcoins by playing a FREE game. Here are the links for iTunes and Android. Bitcoin and WorldAidCoin prizes start soon so get practicing.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.com.microsoul.ponz

Now if this doesn't get people into cryptos I don't know what will. I make budget physical bitcoins and I do everything I can with my profits to get people involved. Hell get me lots of downloads and reviews and I might get my money back. I know I never will but I know I will get a few into cryptos





Prizes will start next week Hopefully wednesday as having a few issues with the leaderboard resetting. Check out a video:
