Hi all,

Thanks for this excellent feedback. This is exactly what I was looking for. I'll address the concerns raised until now.

1. Adults vs kids.

The target of the game remains people who are curious about bitcoin, but don't have time or energies to read books. The impact of Bitcoin and how it can be used is pretty tough to grasp. By breaking down concepts and letting people engage with a single concept at a time will help them understand more.

I personally read the white paper and was sold. However, I found out more and more as I kept reading and engaging with the community. My hope is to convince some of my friends who aren't convinced about the importance of bitcoin. They are very smart people, but lead a busy life and don't have 2-8 hours to read a book etc.

My aim is break the game into small nuggets, so each session is a couple of minutes and the player walks away with that single concept. Slowly over 15-20 sessions, with 15-20 mini-games, the player would have understood a lot of small concepts and hopefully sees the bigger picture.

2. Distribution

My goal is to make the game useful and interesting enough experience so that people here can point their friends to it. You know those smart friends of ours who are being too lazy to read the books/articles/videos we keep sending them.

I am building this in Unity2D and am aware of apple's reluctance to accept bitcoin related apps. So I am being careful and developing both for webGL and mobile. I might just have to distribute it via web.

3. Play testing

I will definitely need a lot of help play testing and gathering feedback. So everyone here who would like to help me with testing will definitely get free access to the game.

To be honest, I would love to give the game away for free so that there is no friction for people anywhere in the world to play it and get started on understanding bitcoin. However, this depends on sponsorships I can get once the game is ready.

3. I like the suggestions to include other things like how mining makes money for miners. The mini-game for miner profits is probably not too hard to build too. Thanks @pawanjain for the suggestion.

4. Thanks @pakhitheboss for the suggestion about a questionnaire. Reminds me of quizzes on coursera. That could actually work. Super suggestion. Let me see if can fit that in without breaking the continuity.

Once again, thanks everyone for all the encouragement and also for a healthy dose of skepticism.

I hope to start sharing some screenshots soon. Just need to get the artist to deliver some art work!
