A New Game Meant to Work off the Steemit Blockchain WIP
For the past few weeks, my father @jonny-clearwater and I have been working on a 2d shoot-em-up, for a steem blockchain integrated arcade.

Gameplay
The game acts as a relatively simple 2d top-down scrolling shooter, in which the player takes control of a caveman running through a prehistoric environment while throwing rocks at a variety of dinosaurs. With each loop of the scene, the caveman begins to run faster, and the enemies grow stronger. The point of the game is to collect power-ups and accumulate as great a score as you can.
Development
I am the sole programmer on the team, developing the game on the Unity engine with the C# language. My father, @jonny-clearwater, is the designer. We are also working with a few artists, including @arepazo and @eqko.

Example of the global manager, currently used for in-game events and global variables, as well as for testing various game-aspects in a debug like state.
Development of the standalone game is near completion, with most of future development focusing on adding in the UI and custom fonts. After that, all of the development will be centered on incorporating this, and many other arcade-like games, into the Steem Blockchain.
How Will This Game Use the Steemit Blockchain
We're currently working on this game to test the creation of an online arcade we've built, hosting many small games with their code and data stored throughout the blockchain. Players will be able to purchase game credits using steem/SBD, with a chance to win weekly prizes for top ranking scores. I am so very excited to soon be able to present all of this to you, Steemians.
Go on
, knowledge is power
Gaming on the blockchain is a cool idea.

Very interesting game! The pixel art is a great choice for the design given that it is a 2D game.
I wish I had the skills to be capable of developing a game.
Best of luck!
Good job being a young steemian, you will be the richest kid in your school!
Keep working hard and don't stop using steem until you pass out at the keyboard! We wan't see see posts that just look like yigijjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjji
Do you plan on making this game open source? :)
The idea of arcade games incorporated on the blockchain is actually quite intriguing! I'm looking forward to the final product (and maybe to hit the top scores)
Absolutely brilliant. A true genius at work!

Thx for the mention buddy :) Hope to be able to see this in action soon.
For the next time use utopian.io, it will grand you some additional and bigger upvotes.

Please do let me know as soon as it's ready to try out! :)
"at your age"
😭

Yeah, young people are always underestimated due to their age and it's sad.
