Built on MUD, an Ethereum framework for onchain games, this demo showcases a massive multiplayer onchain war game where player actions and state live entirely on the blockchain rather than a central game server. It covers the technical approach to handling large-scale onchain game logic and what MUD makes possible for fully onchain game design.

[Music] all right can we start all right hello everybody I'm stash um I'm going to show you the ball blockchain which is the massive fully onchain war strategy game uh so when I was a child I used to manically play strategic games uh basically all day long so I grew up enjoying them but uh I noticed that there's something missing so digital W was exciting but it lacked any connection to like real reality uh outside of it so my decisions in game didn't really exactly transfer to any

positive things in my life and to some it might be great but for me somebody who truly loves games and the experience that I give um it made them kind of boring so over the years I've heard many strategic strategics uh feel basically the same so our actions Were Meant to have real consequences yet it didn't happen so that's why I'm very happy uh to present you a B for blockchain today which is a massive onchain war game built on Mad uh with a financial Market underneath actually so we brought what we loved about financial markets uh to the games format uh creating a completely new category I hope of games that didn't exist before uh sustainable combining crowdsource information and

skill markets uh it turns it turns strategic scale into quantifiable value through a g a war game with a financial Market underneath so you start as like you can support your kingdom on its journey to win the war that's basically your whole goal here so once you start playing you can join two kingdoms spoon City or forktown both with their own history and cultural heritage so shortly after you will be put into the uh huge conflict in the k Aris so in battlef blockchain players are offered a wide variety of tactics that can lead to Victory so we can upgrade your kingdom set up personal

village where you passively create War resources or establish a strike force as you can see right now in the demo uh and uh fight bottles in the AO bottling format that you can know for example from Team fight tactics so you will encounter um more than 24 distinct zones and cities that you can then concur um and we can scale those things those bottles to like really thousands thousands of concurrent players thanks to mod and some of our infrastructure so you have 14 unique Heroes as you can see uh beautiful gacha system that I don't think I will have time to Showcase today and um a lot of items that you can use to alter the

battlefield and the state of the battles um we we also design designed the reward system to be very sustainable uh while also helping games protocol distribute our in-game currency so yeah we we are quite excited to say that it's going to launch in Alpha very very soon and well uh that's it if you have any questions you can ask them me quite later all right thanks a lot thank you star um
