Live on Starknet mainnet✨

[Nexonik @Nexonik]

✨ Just wrapped up an incredible experience at the first-ever @Starknet @PlayerHouse_gg (Nov 10–16, 2024, Bangkok)!

I met amazing Web3 gamers, developers, and had the chance to playtest groundbreaking Fully On-Chain Games (FOCGs) in development.

Notably, @zKube_game and @Blobarena officially launched during the event.

Here are my top takeaways:

1️⃣ Game logic > UX 😅
While retro aesthetics are charming, many games had steep learning curves due to complex gameplay and unclear UIs 🙈
For instance, I often had to juggle between the game and external wikis (sometimes not linked in the game). Even as a seasoned Web3 gamer, I found myself too often relying on devs to explain things.

2️⃣ Balancing transparency and accessibility ⚖️
I loved @cartridge_gg 's transparency in exposing function names for player approvals, but terms like send_max_amount() could confuse users. Using gamer friendly labels like trade_all_resources() should make their 1st experience much more enjoyable.

3️⃣ Sustainable tokenomics can be challenging 🪙
Some devs seemed unclear about long-term goals and sustainability mechanics for their in-game tokens 🤷
Tokens in games that disproportionately reward a small group of value extractors are eventually dumped to 0, mercenaries leave to farm another thing, leaving loyal players holding the bag (been there, done that 🙃).

4️⃣ Blockchain speed still limits certain genres
Starknet’s tech is impressive, but FOCGs still depend on confirmation times, which can slow fast-paced games. This isn’t as noticeable in turn-based genres but stands out in games where players expect fast and responsive gameplay.

5️⃣ Playerchains offer hope? ⛓️
One of the most impressive showcases at the AutonomousAnonymous side event was the demo from @PlaymintUK , showcasing a real-time space shooter demo built on the technology of playerchains (learn more about them here: https://t.co/rXacuXYZeo).

6️⃣ Infrastructure reliability is non-negotiable 🙅
Good games mean nothing if their infrastructure can’t handle player spikes 📈
Bugs are expected in early dev stages, but shared infra must avoid single points of failure.

Thanks again to @PlayerHouse_gg for the inspiration—excited for the future of Web3 gaming! 🕹️

I wasn’t able to finish this map during the finals in @PlayerHouse_gg — I am still trying to figure out how to finish this fast. So far, I like this game. I think I will be playing this ‘til I’m back in Manila. 😆 @ForcePrime_io
