RE: Turn-Based games on Steem blockchain, strategy, realtime, open-source, browser based...
I think you've got a good idea here but I'm gonna take it in another direction, rather than move based games what about a real time strategy(RTS) that uses steem dollars to purchase in game? I don't know if you ever played game of war, evony, or any of those games, but they are big money makers. Basically they are free to play, pay to win. If we gave people the option to earn steem dollars for posting content and then using those SD in game to make purchases, either from the game store, or trading with other players, it would give more reason for people to use Steemit. Not only that but it would give a reason to buy SD, and create a market for it. People in game could trade resources for SD for more cheaply than they can buy them from the game store and people would play just to make SD and cash out playing a game.
This is exactly to brainstorm these type of ideas. And you right about game tokens and game tokens to get extra features. Just like saying Steemit having badges to incentivize users to stay on platform.
Right, and it will bring people in the community who just want to play the game. More content will get posted so they came get more in game goodies and if we let players trade SD amongst each other and let them profit of the game it will be the best game out there because people can make money playing it. But most importantly it will create a market for SD, players will trade amongst theirselves at a lower price than it would take to buy from the developers if the item can be traded. Developers could keep a couple untradeables so they can make so money on those but let the players run the markets on most in game items. These games should be very easy to make, I will even look into how to make a basic one and see what I can do?
This is exactly what I was going to say, figured I'd read the comments and see if someone else beat me to it. Excellent comment this is exactly what we need I play clash of clans and I used to play FarmVille, like you said war, and so on and so forth. Games like that would increase retention and bring soooo many new people. THIS WOULD BE PHENOMENAL.
I love the idea of building a gaming market around buying sbd for in game purchases. It's fucking brilliant. If we could build something like this that would be amazing.
