Hello all, I am the developer of this site.
First of all, I'd like to thank the affiliate for posting this thread. I'll always support my affiliates and players. I'd also like to thank everyone for providing their feedback.
All of the questions raised, such as bidding and matchmaking have been addressed in the game.
The game can be played with micro amounts, so if you want to try it you can use NANO from any of the faucets. Here's a site reviewing the available NANO faucets. Simply trying the game would have addressed all of the questions raised here.
http://www.tokenclaimer.pw/2019/05/get-free-nano-xrb-huge-list-of-nano.htmlAs many of you already know, NANO is a fast and feeless crypto. There are 30 decimal places of precision built into the currency. Currently most wallets allow up to 6 decimal places of precision. This means you can play the game with only one one-millionth of a NANO. This is less than one one-millionth of a USD. Again, there's no risk here. You can simply claim NANO from a faucet, put it in your wallet and try the game with this minimum amount.
For those of you who need further explanations, I am happy to directly address some of the questions raised.
What if no other players are online, will my bid be trapped until a player is available?
No, as described above you can cashout at anytime. Cashouts are processed automatically if you disconnect. Additionally there is a computer player you can play against. Each round has a timeout of 30 seconds. There is a similar countdown so players don't need to wait for a match.
What if I can't find someone to match my bid?
This has been addressed. You will be matched with the house player when no players are online. When another player is available you will be matched based upon your bid. This means that the round's bid is set to the bid of the player who's bid is lowest. Players are matched in order of bid with the two highest bidders playing each other.
Bids are 10% of your deposit. Your bid will raise as you win more and increase your balance.
Why not make some more complex games?
I have also published a game called "Player Killers' Exchange", this is a full multiplayer action RPG with more than a thousand different maps. It also pays you out in NANO. If you would like you can watch some of the videos of this or check the thread here at bitcointalk.org. I've been supporting this game since 2018 and all support issues have been resolved satisfactorily. This is not a text based clicker game. It is a full graphical action RPG playable in the browser. No install is required.
For this project, I felt that I wanted to make something simple and accessible for the casual player.
The UI....
This is a new release as of this week. UI and more affiliate features will be added as the game continues to develop. I have not abandoned my other NANO project. I'll continue to add new features and create other games.
The game is too simple...
When I started this project, I had the same opinion. But as I continued to research it I found that there are championships of RPS games. The strategy involves predicting what your opponent will play next based upon their past moves and their reading of your past moves. To facilitate this gameplay, I allow you to view the last 16 moves of your opponent. Wikipedia goes into greater depth and a google search for "rock paper scissors strategies" revealed academic papers etc. At first the game does seem simple, but depth is there beneath the simplicity.
Hopefully some of you will take the time to actually try the game and perhaps reflect upon some of the comments here. I understand why some would have concerns. Looking forward to hearing more feedback, especially from those who have tried the game. Again, cashouts are automatic. I have no interest in holding your funds. NANO has no transaction fees, so I have no reason to keep your crypto. The above concerns would have been addressed by simply trying the game with a faucet amount.
Thank you for your consideration.
