Description
This game development projects There is a lot of hype going on with the blockchain gaming world and we as the open source community have a responsibility to conduct a deep dive into real use cases of blockchain technology in the gaming space where it makes practical sense as well as identify areas where blockchain technology is not an appropriate solution (not viable or not cost effective or impractical since better solutions already exist).
This project then looks into various aspects of a blockchain based game such as use of tokens as currency and for providing governance . and/or functional utility in the game's ecosystem.
In the beginning, this project will use ready to use solutions such as Polygon or a comparable Layer 2 option for Ethereum but then we'll look for a high performance set up on one of the Hyperledger chains such as Besu or Iroha. We'll also evaluate possibility of using a Hyperledger based Layer 2 scaling solution.
The game play will be kept pretty simple in the beginning but it will be based on blockchain version of a classic board game such as Settlers of Catan or Monopoly. In later versions, we plan to implement High Definition gaming if possible.
Additional Information
...
This study project aims to analyze and document the best practices, architectural framework and design patterns for applications of blockchain technology in the gaming space. Examples being, use of BaaS (Blockchain as a service), SSI (Self sovereign Identity) and blockchain agnostic frontends and backends. This project will be accomplished in three two parts as below:
1) Introduction to Blockchain Gaming2) Deep Dive into Use Cases Design and develop POC games in order to conduct a deep dive into use cases of Blockchain Technology in Gaming
32) Document Best Practices, Architectural Frameworks, Design Patterns and Tokenomics for Blockchain Gaming based on these POCs
Expected Outcome
...
This project work will have two expected outcomes:
1) Creation of a demo game which exhibits the chosen attributes of blockchain gaming
2) Documentation of Best Practices, Architectural Frameworks, Design Patterns and Tokenomics for Blockchain Gaming based on these POCs
Relation to Hyperledger
Assess While the initial iterations of this project may make use of non-Hyperledger chains such as Ethereum, Cardano, Solana or Polkadot (at L1 level) and Polygon or Avalanche (at L2 level), we'll evaluate corresponding chains using Hyperledger chains such as Besu or Iroha for high performance gaming needs. We'll also evaluate possibility of using a Hyperledger based solution (Layer 1 or Layer 2) for game assets, NFTs and state management.
Education Level
Expected Candidate is expected to have engineering background. background
Skills
Deep understanding of at least one side and descent This person must have a deep understanding of the other ( blockchain ecosystem and game development)as well as the game development with at least Unity or Unreal Engine tools.
Experience with VR/XR tools is a plus point.
Future plans
Many game development companies are seeking talented individuals with experience in blockchain game development. This program can provide immense value and exposure to the selected person (s). as the Hyperledger gaming team is planning to engage with prominent game developers and studios for collaborative work.
