PS: I initially posted this in the gambling section but was recommended to post it here since it really is not a casino or gambling site at all which I totally agree with. Also, it is a passion project of mine that I work on in my free time and not a business. Just wanted to get this out of the way, since a lot of people in the gambling section expected it to be a business with 24/7 support. I will do my best to answer all requests here though.  Smiley

First you are the developer of this platform so you should be the one to know the classification of your platform if you think that this is a gambling platform then defend it's place in the board, second this is a developer section where new projects are in beta and alpha phase.

Vod is right in his opinion that its doesn't belong here, there's another section where your platform belongs and this is the MicroEarnings
I saw some platforms similar to yours so check if you think that's the best section ofr your platform.

It's definitely not a gambling site. Gambling is defined as a game of chance. This is clearly a skills based game and therefore not a casino or anything similar. Nonetheless, the other available sections did also not seem right for me, hence I posted in gambling first. I will have a look at Micro Earnings though.
In any case, the people over at gambling recommended this as the right section.
Yes, it sounds more like a micro earning service, like various faucets with different methods of claiming rewards.
How fatherly you planned the monetization so that the service could be functional on its own without constant investment in the bankroll?

Hi, not sure I completely understand the question? Could you rephrase it?

It's a simple game, I don't see how it could keep someone playing for a long time. If you tell me it's just an MVP, that's fine, I can overlook a lot of things, but if it's the final product, I saw a problem that, in my opinion, makes me suspicious. Who is the wallet being held by? By you? Since you said you're a technology lover, you could create an integration for the player to connect their own wallet and maybe even charge a small fee to keep the project active. I don't see any problem in wanting to profit from something that took time, knowledge, and money to maintain (hosting, domain, etc.).

You could base it on some of these games, they are simple but with a look that might be more interesting for players: https://poki.com/en/tanks

Thank you, very appreciated. It's certainly some kind of MVP. Further development depends a bit on my time and general user interest though. Regarding the wallet, if you are very paranoid, you could just only keep enough there to pay for a single game and then withdraw. That you can keep more than that is just a convenience feature. In the first version, you had to pay before every game which was a bit more cumbersome. Wallet integrations is certainly something I have on the roadmap though not but with extremely high prio. If you just have a couple hundred sats there, the risk is limited in my opinion but of course everyone needs to decide themselves.

He claims it's a passion project for the lightning network.  Yet the amount of time he spent on coding the lightning part was negligible.  When you lose your coin on this platform, I would expect the customer support to be as honest as the announcement. 

Everyone here knows I protect real projects from being saturated with scam projects, so I have tagged the OP after he ignored warnings.

See me comment above. Not gambling.

See a dictionary.  Gambling.

How would you know how much time I spent on a feature?  Cheesy

On gambling, Wikipedia says: Gambling is the wagering of something of value on a random event with the intent of winning something else of value.
There is no randomness in the game aside from map layout generation. It is not gambling, no matter how often you claim the opposite.

I agree with the post above; it's still gambling because it requires a fee to win something. It isn't earning for free; you are still risking something to be able to earn the pot. There's no big difference in playing digital poker that's based on skill-based games and considered gambling.

Look at this image:

https://talkimg.com/images/2025/06/22/UuNdXD.png

Even if it is player vs. player, it has a fee of 10 sats to 50 sats. The free one is the training ground with a pot of 0 sats. Training ground is supposed to be just your demo.

I tried to play the demo one with a bot, and honestly, it's hard to win on the game. Once I got hit by the enemy bullet, I lost immediately, but when I tried to attack the bot and got hit multiple times, it didn't die, and my bullets are limited to, I guess, 10 shots; it will reload for more than 3 seconds and lots of movement delays.

https://talkimg.com/images/2025/06/22/UuNwhZ.png

The tank retro game is way better to play than this.

Thank you for your feedback. Well, it should not be easy to win but when you hit the bot it should definitely die immediately. I have not encountered this situation so far. Can you describe in more detail how it happened?

I think OP probably has good intentions with their project, but maybe hasn't presented or framed it in the best way (gambling issue etc).

At the end of the day, I think trust is the biggest issue, and a game like this is likely (regrettably) better suited to a blockchain with more advanced smart contracting abilities, where management of the pots can be fully trustless and fair.

With regards to the game itself - there is fairly significant input lag that I'm confident is not just me. I'm guessing client inputs are sent to the server and the game is only updated to reflect the server state? You should implement client side prediction and interpolate the client state with the server state, so the player can get immediate feedback for their actions. For such a simple game, it shouldn't be too much of a headache, and it'll make the gameplay feel a lot more smooth  Smiley

Thank you very much. Yes, your assumption is absolutely correct. Inputs are sent to the server where the state is updated and then updates are communicated back to the client. Client-side prediction is something I have on the roadmap. Smiley But yeah, depends a bit on my time. It's funny, I released a v1 of it a while ago with mostly positive feedback on another site. v2 here is like v1 just with some convenience features added but feedback is mostly negative for basically the same game. ^^

I will think a bit about it.

My view is that it is such a low stakes scenario that increasing trustlessness really does not matter that much. Each player will at most risk a couple cents worth of money. Even if there were thousands or tens of thousands of players (a very very very optimistic scenario) there would be maybe a couple hundred dollars circulating on the platform. If someone wanted to scam people, this would be really one of the most inefficient ways imaginable to do it imo.

It should be a fun and casual browser game. For that the gameplay should be responsive and entertaining. The latter part was where I got quite some positive feedback from people who actually played with friends or other real players in v1. The first part is definitely something to be improved, I agree.

First of all, it is a gambling website.  You must pay to play, and you are not guaranteed your money back.   Who would have told you this wasn't gambling and would have recommended you post an active site requesting real payment in Project Development?  I'm guessing we won't get any answer to that, but you should move this thread to Gambling.  I am telling you it doesn't belong here, and you can quote me on that.

Second, I agree with shield132.  If this is a passion project, why would you produce a vanilla game probably written by AI?    Looks to me like a quick project you already completed to make secondary income.    I like the idea, but you should show us your passion and not concentrate so much on making $.  Did the lighting integration even take up any significant portion of this project?

Finally, no regulation, no oversight and no way to recover your money should the website have a planned/unplanned hack/inside job or whatever, which would probably happen at the peak of the marketing plan when the amount of bitcoin in their custody also peaks.     Your passion is not a developing project, and this thread does not belong here - your site should have the same exposure and chances as every other gambling site so newbies do not expect additional security.  Please move it.



See me comment above. Not gambling. Also, you can play for free, there is no requirement to pay anything. And yes, it's a passion project. Inspired by a similar retro game from my childhood that, obviously, had no multiplayer back then. And I clearly reject your accusations it being some AI slop and me having ulterior motives. A real-time online multiplayer with lightning integration is not something you can one-shot vibe code today and expect it to work. Maybe in some years but I recommend you try now. Furthermore, even if you play in one of the paid arenas, you risk a couple sats that you can withdraw immediately after the game. Of course, it's your prerogative not to do that.

I created a browser game where you battle with tanks against other players. You pay a small fee to enter and can win part of a larger pot if you win (also free game options exist to try it out). It's pretty self-explanatory (WASD or arrow keys to move, mouse click to shoot). The main reason I started working on it is because I wanted to get more familiar with integrating Lightning ⚡ micro payments in real-world applications. I love the technology and am a fan despite many people discounting Lightning UX as bad. I think it's on the right track though.
It's my dream to earn money with gaming without streaming online. Since my childhood, I've been dreaming to play PES or any other P2P game online with money. I was also playing World Of Tank and Tankionline at some point in my life and I loved these games a lot. Now, after reading this post, I immediately imagined that finally one of my wish would come true and I'd be able to play a game like Tankionline and World Of tanks online with money but after seeing the gameplay, I felt very hurted and depressed. I saw the gameplay and this is not what I was expecting, this is a very simple HTML game. I was expecting something cool with action.

I'm sorry, but I feel heartbroken. Btw wish you good luck and success, I hope this will turn into something big because if it stays this way, I can't imagine who will play this game. Sorry again and good luck.

Sorry you did not like it, but no need to be heartbroken Wink

Hi  Smiley

I created a browser game where you battle with tanks against other players. You pay a small fee to enter and can win part of a larger pot if you win (also free game options exist to try it out). It's pretty self-explanatory (WASD or arrow keys to move, mouse click to shoot). The main reason I started working on it is because I wanted to get more familiar with integrating Lightning ⚡ micro payments in real-world applications. I love the technology and am a fan despite many people discounting Lightning UX as bad. I think it's on the right track though.

Happy to hear what you think!

https://satoshi-strike.com/

The current version comes with the following features:

User Accounts

Setting up an account is really just choosing a nickname and password and you are good to go. No mail confirmations or similar needed. You can have as many accounts as you want. Just choose the nickname you like, enter a password and click register and your account is created. I am aware that the login page might be still a bit confusing. Appreciate feedback on how to improve that.  Smiley

Gameplay: https://www.talkimg.com/images/2025/06/09/UdQ6K8.png
Login: https://www.talkimg.com/images/2025/06/09/UdQRH3.png

Wallet

You have a wallet inside the game. That means you don't have to to do a Lightning transaction before every game and withdraw after every game, disrupting the flow. You simply fund the wallet once, play as long as you like, all deductions and earnings are debited and credited to your wallet as you play, and finally you can withdraw again to self-custody.

Wallet: https://www.talkimg.com/images/2025/06/09/UdQTsw.png

Improved UX

You can see the current state of all waiting rooms before entering them. When you enter a waiting room, the entrance fee is only blocked in your wallet but not deducted. You can leave the waiting room at any time and at no cost. Only when a waiting room fills up and the game really starts, is the fee deducted from your wallet. (Of course, this does not apply to free game options)

Lobby: https://www.talkimg.com/images/2025/06/09/UdQt79.png

New Game Modes

Instead of just 1v1 arenas, I added more game modes (different fee levels, more players, etc.). This can be easily extended. If you want a 10v10 arena, let me know  Grin

Demo Mode & Training

Also, I added two free arenas for practice. One is 1v1 where you can play and train with a friend without risking any sats. The other free arena is with a bot that I programmed (not extremely good, but okay for practice) that you can practice with at any time.

Mobile Version

Also, the new version is playable on mobile as this has been a request by many. Instead of using keyboard and mouse, a joystick is displayed on the screen and you tap the screen to shoot.

Mobile View: https://www.talkimg.com/images/2025/06/09/UdQFaN.png

Exactly, this is not a business, it's a passion project of mine. If people like it, definitely cool, if they don't, fine as well.
Also, it is not a site for gamblers. It is a skills-based game that you can play with friends using Bitcoin lightning technology which I wanted to get more familiar with. There are free options but even the paid options are virtually free and cost a couple sats at the moment.

So, all I can say is, try out the free option with a friend or with the bot if you want and if you like it, try the paid arenas. You don't need to risk anything and if you go for the paid option, you risk a couple sats that I "could run away with". But I don't need that fortunately. Would be rather pathetic if I did.

I understand that people would like some clarity what they are getting into but

a) the barrier of entry of my game is basically zero. as stated, you create an account in 3 seconds (no mail or anything required) and can play for free immediately.
b) even the paid arenas are far from being 'high stakes' in any way

If you don't view this project of yours as a serious business which you could profit significantly from in the near future, then it would have been better for you to share all this in the section of the forum dedicated to projects development. There are many LN enthusiasts there and they would definitely appreciate whatever you have to show there.

People are talking about your "professionality" and your presence in this thread, because in this section we all are accustomed to threads to be opened to offer services by casinos or bookies, which see themselves as serious and reliable businesses in the long term, rather than seeing personal projects made for the sake of fun or amusement.
So some people may feel confused on how serious this project of yours is, that's all.

It's not a business but still a serious project. Both can be true. But thank you for the hint. I initially skimmed the forum and thought that this category is the correct one, even though my project is not a casino or gambling site per se. But upon second thought, it might make more sense in the project section as you recommend.

Don't understand your problem tbh. The game works and I am improving it when I feel like it. No one forces you to play so by all means, don't.
I really don't have any problems with you or with your platform. Since you have created your announcement thread on the forum, it does mean you are interested in getting potential gamblers from here. But it seems you discourage us from gambling on your platform. Your behaviour does not seem as professional as it should be. I am just advising you for free; again, you should be active on your official announcement thread to answer queries. That's your responsibility if you really want to gain some users from here.

If you aren't active, who is going to lose? Me? I don't think so. At the end of the day you will lose potential gamblers. Because I know very well about forum gamblers behaviour. They are very careful, especially those who are big players. They look at a couple of things before jumping into any platform. Also, I am not forcing you to be active; this isn't my business.

Who knows, perhaps this is rather a personal project than a business in the eyes of OP, so he does not take it as seriously as other casino/service owners do. This could be one-person project which he simply felt like sharing and dropped it on here for people to see, but not much beyond it.
People are interested in independent development, regardless it is gambling or gaming in general, but it would be easier for gamblers to know from the get-go how big this project is supposed to be and whether there is a defined road map for it in the short term.
When it is about one's money, we all like to know where we are getting into, don't we?.

Since OP has already pointed out he is not forcing anyone to play his game, I could already conclude he is not in a rush to accumulate as many gamblers as possible on his service. He may be working on other projects, even...

Exactly, this is not a business, it's a passion project of mine. If people like it, definitely cool, if they don't, fine as well.

Btw. just pushed a new update! Looking forward to know what you think.

Been a while since my last visit, it's nice to see that there has been an update and we can see op is more active now. I'm curious if you have any plans of onboarding cheap altcoins as an alternative.

If I may add a suggestion, perhaps a quick getting started with LN guide—maybe a simple wallet and exchange recommendations. As you may have known, there are much less LN users compared to on-chain BTC, it could help some folks IMO. But such guide should be accessible without logging in for maximum exposure.

Hi, no plans for altcoins. Bitcoin only. Regarding the wallet guide, yes that is a good point. However, I am not sure anyone would make himself familiar with Lightning just for a game he doesn't know anything about. I'll keep it in mind though.

That being said, you can try the game for free without any Lightning payment. There are free game options one of them against a bot player to get to know the game. (Check first post of this thread for more info on the updates)

Sorry, but just because OP made a post recently doesn’t mean he has become active.
He said he pushed a new update, but he didn’t even bother to tell us what the update is all about! Do you expect us to visit his website to figure out the changes? We are not going to do that.
Besides, OP hasn’t even bothered to buy a copper membership after two months of being on this forum, so why should we take him seriously?


I wrote extensively about the update in the first post of this thread which I edited.

Hey mate, please try not to do multiple posts in a row. You are actually breaking one of the forum's rule. You don't necessary need to post separate reply to everyone. You can just reply to all of them in a single post. Multiple posts are only allowed when bumping or reserving posts. Hope that helps.  Wink

32. Posting multiple posts in a row (excluding bumps and reserved posts by the thread starter) is not allowed.

Hi, I am working on this in my free time Smiley The project is very much alive and not abandoned. Regarding marketing of it, I absolutely agree. I'd be open to collaborations in this area!
Are you serious? What does working free time mean? Unless you are fully active on the forum and support forum gamblers, I don't think you can draw attention from the gamblers here. If you aren't regular on your announcement thread, then how do I believe you will help users to solve an issue in case something happens? I am not sure how your support system works fast, but in the end, forum gamblers will raise issues on your announcement thread.

You need to be serious about what you are working for. If you can't draw attention from gamblers, then your plan went wrong. You must have some strategies to onboard gamblers. Yet I haven't noticed something like this to attract gamblers. You should know better how to spread the word about your new gambling platform.

Don't understand your problem tbh. The game works and I am improving it when I feel like it. No one forces you to play so by all means, don't.

TBH this is not good attitude of someone offering his business to people and instead you answer his question you discourage him not to play. This is really unprofessional act, so maybe try to explain those questions ask by @The Cryptovator since many also know what other thing you can answer to that question.

If you can't offer your full time on the project you presented here for sure that lots of people will be skeptical to try your site.

You should take positive or negative opinions since there are lots of learnings to get which can help your site to improve more.

The 'feedback' above is closer to an insult than a feedback. I am developing the game as a passion project because that is what it is. It is not my business. Thankfully, I have a very successful business and do not need my passion projects to be commercially successful. I have fun making them and I enjoy when people like it. That's it.

What difference does it make how many hours I work on the project in all honesty? I can work 100h+ per week on it and it can be crap and I can work 5min on it and it can be good. Hours put into something is not a good measure of quality. When my employees tell me how long they worked on something, I couldn't care less. I care about the end result.

Whether people want to try something that is not someone's full time project is up to everyone to decide. I can only say that I intend to continue improving the game, I am having fun doing it. I could lie and say that this is all I do but why would I?

That being said, I pushed out a new version today. Smiley I am always open for criticism and feedback if it is well meaning.

Hi, the game has been operational the whole time and playing was always safe (as safe as it can be in an alpha version).
I wasn’t aware of this. The last time I checked, I couldn’t log in but that was over a month ago, my bad!

I think you should improve the login/register a bit by separating them into two different tabs to avoid confusion.

I also think adding a short cooldown before the game starts would be nice, this will give players some time to get ready.

I tested the game on mobile and I found it difficult to control the tank and shoot.

Quote
EDIT: Should I make a new thread for the announcement or do you recommend writing here?
You can edit this topic or start a new one but if you choose to create a new one, you'll need to lock this topic first.

Yeah, I noticed that the login/register causes some confusion. My intention is to keep the whole thing as lightweight as possible and hassle free as possible. Still need to think a bit how to do that though in practice.
I will rework the intro post of this thread and explain the game a bit more in detail and then go from there I guess. Smiley

I just had a match with the bot and I must say the game was quite addictive Grin...man seriously good job. Everything was plain and simple, really liked that old school classic retro theme you have tried to implement here. Brought back some memories.
Small suggestion, add a 2-3 second cooldown or invincible moment before the game starts. I couldn't even react in the first couple of tries. Didn't even see where the bomb was coming from, LOL.

That's a good point. I put it on my backlog!

Since you made the announcement thread, this is your second post. I think you need to be more active on your thread to collaborate with forum users. I am curious to know if your site is still developing more. If so, when will it be fully functional, and when will gamblers try it?

How are you going to onboard more gamblers, like with some promos and giveaways? To be honest, you need a good marketing strategy to attract more gamblers. Hope you have a solid plan to make it successful.

Thank you for keeping us updated, OP, and glad you are taking the members’ suggestions seriously and working on implementing them.
But can you give us an ETA on when these changes and new features will be available?
Also, is it safe for users to keep playing on your website in the meantime, since I see it’s still accepting deposits, or should they just wait until the updates are fully implemented?

Good luck with your work!

Hi, the game has been operational the whole time and playing was always safe (as safe as it can be in an alpha version). I am nearing completion of a major update. Some last testing is happening in a smaller circle and then I will make a longer intro post about it again. Smiley

You should have a demo mode others can use to check out before making a deposit. Paying to play a game you have no clue if you will like and have not seen a graphic of will not be a popular choice.

Granted it is a small amount, but sending deposits sometimes pose a privacy risk and others may not want to take a risk on an untested website.

Fair point. I think the demo mode itself probably does not make a lot of sense but having some game play videos or screenshots ready would certainly help. Thanks for the input!

Hi all Smiley

This is my first post on this forum. I hope I chose the right category for this. If not, apologies and happy to move the post wherever it belongs.

I have been diving into bitcoin lightning development lately and created a browser game where you battle with tanks against other players.
You pay a small fee to enter and can win part of a larger pot if you win. It's pretty self-explanatory (WASD to move, mouse click to shoot) and also quite addictive  Cheesy

To play you just need a bitcoin lightning wallet (that ideally supports LNURL withdraw). Also, the game is currently only optimized and really playable on desktop and there is no mobile version yet.

Happy to hear what you think!
