Changed name - for now... what do you think? (had a mixed reaction so far)

Chrono Kings

We envision the game evolving into a sort of Ruler style world.. i.e. Kings.. over time (hopefully) people will attack/rebel against the king(s)... the Kings will be the owners of the Crown of Fortune and/or Throne of Fortune.

development has started on a basic prototype...

https://github.com/chronokings/chronokings

as for the name of the coins : Chrons? Chronos? Crowns?

May Add: Throne of Fortune - A square of which if a player is on, he will receive X% of Block reward..

I'd like to see some visuals of the game site where the transactions translate onto before naming it, so as to name it appropriately and in a way that is distinctive to what the coin does.

yes sir

Imagine mining coins with expensive hardware (not many of us have this).. and imagine mining coins manually avoiding death.. man hours will be needed to mine the coins.. of course people may/will make bots.. but from experience, bots are never as good as human players (not including FPS aim type bots).. this may change though.. (obviously it should be FUN)

probably the crown/throne of fortune may receive 10 or 15% each of the block reward.. miners 20% of block reward.. the rest into harvesting (50%)..

not sure what you mean by visuals of the game site though...

it will be a basic style map.. maybe starting 300 x 300 squares (at the start)... possibly a river (obstacle) running through the centre, with a bridge in the middle...

you click a character(s) and move him/her to the next square.. you (hopefully) will be able to click a square far a way so the client
paths to this square so you can go afk (if the journey takes hours)

The Harvest areas will regenerate every block...

there's a few problems, like : what happens when no more coins are generated (if we did this)... what happens if a miner doesn't process your moves and only his (you will probably die or never catch the crown without a coordinated effort))..

but this is an experiment.. if it explodes, is hacked/exploited on release, don't be angry..

(we will try our best to prevent this of course)

I share your enthusiasm greatly and I admire the philosophy regardless of how fancy the graphics/gameplay will be. this is a milestone that will lure in entertainment-based crypto for game developers in the future
