You are fucking cancer, there is 0 point for your shitty game to be on a blockchain. Just use a traditional server or kys

>>10767738
Oh yeah, getting players and servers to sync modpack assets is a pain in the ass. Distributed asset lists for certain minecraft modpacks would make things quite a bit easier since the problem now is client/server mismatch if you just want to play on different servers.

>>10767779
but anon, traditioinal servers are slow as fuck and are expensive to operate for thousands of players

I as one man, can deploy an app on CX, which hooks into a blockchain on Fiber and I end up paying much less in operational costs. It's the user spending their coinhours to play the game and me making bank on in-game economy shit.

>What is innovation?

>>10767779
They are using a server lol. The entire skycoin "blockchain" is a database on one server.

>>10767860
Mmmh yes blockchain have shown to be very fast and scalable.

>look at this innovative product
>it works much worse than the original product, but its innovation !

Blockchain has thousands of usecases, gaming is not one of them

>>10767906
Oh, coinhours are generated by the hour by holding skycoin, but you don't necessarily spend them as a unit of time.

"Sky-Man" might be more like an arcade game, where you pay 25 coinhours to start another life.

I have it downloaded on my computer tho.

>Blockchain has thousands of usecases, gaming is not one of them
You're literally retarded, old MMO rares like Party Hats in Runescape are the original digital scarcity.

>>10767951
If you are talking about trading digital game assets on the blockchain, sure that works.

Trading shitty weapon skins is not gaming for me though, and in this case the blockchain is used only for the ownership of the items, not the actual game.

>>10767944
No you dont. You have a program that communicates with the server, the same way the gmail app communicates with a google server.

>>10767951
Not to mention there isn't really a problem having those items on a centralised database

>>10767996
nah, look, right here, blockchain on my computer

gaming on blockchain is pointless and gimmicky. i was about to make a game on Bitcoin Cash but i quickly realized that you'd just have bots gaming against each other if money are involved.

you can use a blockchain to publish proof of stuff but game logic should still be off-chain.

Time for the truth:
There is currently no way for the CX language to interact with the blockchain and whoever tells you the opposite is straight up lying.
The development team behind it is working day and night in order to improve the language.
If you want to help the project test the language find bugs and tell the team about them instead of spreading misleading information.

>>10768068
Hold on, are you saying there's hypercritical dunning-kruger acolytes that constantly lurk biz and github, responding like Skycoin is an ex girlfriend that left them?

>real blockchains are bulky as fuck and not optimized at all and require TB hard drives to download

Coin Join ain't just for privacy, son.

>>10768068
Kek

>>10768132
Agreed, most of this is in CX, not a blockchain on Fiber. In my example blockchain just stores the map and probably player data.

oh that actually looks fun, how do i play this?

>>10768138
Yeah, but we're talking about planned concepts here anon. It's part of the planned features.

Nice work on the pacman demonstration, by the way.

>>10768309
Still in development anon, keep an eye on CX/Fiber/Skycoin
