Hello steemians, I have been working on a game that revolves around cryptocurrency! It is somewhat a clicker game (if you don't know that is, it's basically like the game, Cookie Clicker).
When you get into the game for the first time, you start with one ethereum faucet that gives you 1 wei per click (faucet reloads every 4 seconds). 1 wei = 0.0000000000000001 ethereum, so yes, this will be very very slow at first. As you buy upgrades, the process gets faster and soon will become automated. I call this "proof of faucet" as a joke because you get ethereum from a single faucet.
Later on, you can unlock the second ethereum faucet and then buy miners as a part of "proof of work." The miner's price will be based off of real-time ethereum prices. The game will have a lot more features.
Recently, I added NEO to the coin stash and now you can trade ethereum for neo or neo for ethereum. What's special about neo? Proof of stake! As this POS system is very different, blocks are generated and rewarded from a random time of 0.5 seconds to 90 seconds. You can earn NEO while you are gone while you cannot earn ethereum while you are gone; so trade them before you leave to get extra while you are gone!
NEO and ethereum prices update every 30 seconds (which lags for some reason, a poor connection with wifi or cellular can freeze your game as it won't download from the API source).
I am currently working on fixing the tutorial that will work with the save system, working on faucet 2, working on miners, prestige system as you will get workers that do a 0.5%-2% boost per worker (haven't decided). To be realistic, if the boost is 2%, there will be worker fees of 1% for every minute or hour (there will be taxes for sure let's say).
Here is a gallery of screenshots, working on iOS only for now.
I just restarted my progress so more screenshots of further progress will be shown in a different post.
This game will be finished for sure, as I am using it for a project in my AP Computer Science Class for extra motivation! All UI designed by me (except ethereum logo of course and fonts).
