Bitcoin Forum

Currently I am searching for a btc game idea. Ideally the game will be browser based, multiplayer, 1v1. As an example you can take the classic Tic Tac Toe game, user A vs user B - who wins takes the stake (the stake would be the gathered played amount).
I am going to put on the table $2500 (in btc) or even more for the best game idea.

place the funds in escrow first 

Do the classics like chess or checkers. Good stakes one on one wit vs wit. Don't have to pay raiyaly fee for game rights use.

are you looking for a skill game or game of luck?

How complex/long the code can be? I mean what are you looking for, a "flash" game or something simpler?

I think a good idea for pvp game would be
some sort of match3 game. Like puzzle quest battle of the warlords.
With cool characters to choose and items, magic.
Maybe even coop? Two players against very hard bosses and monsters. 
That would be awesome for android too. Easy to monetize.
For graphic style a good choice could be "guild of dungeoneering" simple but
totally awesome :)

I have the best idea never been done, I dont want your $2500 I just need a badass programmer.  I have the php site done and the game engine is on github.
Would be willing to work out some sort of deal that would work for the both of us.
Let me know if anyone is interested.I have the best idea never been done, I dont want your $2500 I just need a badass programmer.  I have the php site done and the game engine is on github.

I think the people need a game which is Mafia-based. Maybe more real like second life. And a little bit virtual reallity.
Well, to explain you more send me the $2.500 and you just have to wait some time --- you will understand the biggest idea how to make money. At least $2.500.
And its real time + amazing real. And I even have a proof-of-concept for you in my wallet (around $2.500)

I bet every member will love your game, if you stay the game master - big daddy   8)

I have the Idea but i will use escrow service for this deal as you are newbie and offering such a huge bounty so cannot believe it, If you are willing to deal then do find escrow or i will get you escrow .

Well, Given the fact that these mongols are all busy circle-jerking eachother I'll bite. I've got an idea. If you'd like to hear it I can send you a PM.

I'm also a web developer.. SO we could likely actually build this project too. Let me know

Interested, sent a private message.

lol at people taking this seriously. $2500 for an idea?  ::)

I've got some great game ideas ... send me the BTC first and I can check if they are real.

Just create some fantasy role playing game, where people can create things and sell them to other players in a medieval setting. You can start with farmers and work your way to informal settlements and then evolve with centenary upgrades as the game evolves. The core component of this game, should be mining and the fight for resources between the clans.

You could start out small, 1 vs 1 and grow it into a bigger game or sell it once it grows momentum. ^smile^ 

Hello,

Thank you for your responses, I will try to respond to everyone.

I don't know if it helps you but if you check my forum profile, I attached a btc account (https://blockchain.info/address/1Bmud9Gmq9oGh9WShLxrrQBEQ1NpSNoVkn) which contains my forum username & the forum name.

You might be right... but aren't them boring?

Luck, let's make it more interesting.

Ideally not something very complex because it would take a long time to be made.

That might sound good but since I am not a big fan of your presented games I have to do some research about them.

So you are saying that you need a programmer but you have the source code, what?

When I was a kid I used to play that kind of games and I know exactly what you mean. However I bet the joining majority would be kids and since BTC in one way or another means money...

You can send me a private message and just to let you know I don't need a developer.

OK!

Please check my first answer.

Thank you again.

Since I'm into development of game engines and actively have worked on couple of them ,I don't mind suggesting something.I will leave you a pm later tonight.Basically its an action kind of game between two players.

How about a pok'e'mon style battle?

You go 1v1 against players with your monster/animal/character you've trained up.  You set a wager and wait for someone to challenge you, then you fight it out pokebattle style!

Whoever wins takes the winnings, both competitors get some XP for their efforts.

Oh how about if you can spend minimal, like tiny, amounts of btc to train or customise your character/pet/arsegoblin?


That way you'd take a profit from the game from people spending to level up etc like Clash of Clans does.


I'm sorry if someone else already said this, I didn't read many replies before I had the idea!  I'd never considered BTC gaming before!



Jamie

You could be a honest man, but it gives us some guarantee that we'll be getting paid if our idea has been chosen.

Because alot of newbies happend to give alot of fake promises to pay alot and vanished after they got what they want. (I'm not judging or trying to offend you bro, just letting you of our past experiences.)

thanks and as we know now that game of luck is preferred are you looking for a unique game?

What about a site where people can communicate. We can name it facepaper or headbook  ::) ;D

Anyways turning FUN to REAL: Is there a social media addicted bitcoin site?  ???
Better then a game - my idea. Send me the USD 2.500 to ...  ;D

Ok! I wasn't expecting so many messages, so to be easier for you and me, I am looking for something more concrete. The game should be based on winning (luck), not especially fun.

If I like your idea I am going to send you a private message for a more elaborate talk.

Thank you again!

What about gamifying Tinder ... like if you score then you get bitcoins to pay for your date? But you have to put into a pool, pay to play but with an odds system on how lucky you might get?!

dude !! start working on 8pool and snooker games they are very good , and there is no game for snooker and 8pool playing with btc , we need it !!

pm me

You do understand information is an experienced good. Once you know it, you own it. So escrow the money if you want people to take you seriously.

Actually you right , he just newbie who probably can stole your idea for free.

I told him about my ideas in pm,if he likes my ideas can tip me else no problem

What I want to see is multiplayer racing game when you can bet bitcoin either on someone else or on yourself and be a virtual racer or gambler.
I know that there is no way that we will see something that looks even remotely close to AAA titles like FORZA or Need for Speed but still it would be awesome.

Just sent you my idea for a competitive game against 2 or more players

If you find it interested, please feel free to contact me.

I'll keep an eye on this topic.

Did OP decide to use an escrow service?!?
I have a nice betting/game idea (free to play or cash game) if anyone could be interested we can discuss about it.

exactly!! why are people not seeing this? A newbie will give you $2500 for something you just gave him free?  ???

What about two players playing the role of bitcoin miners and each one will solve a similar puzzle.Whoever solve it quickly wins and reach the next level.At the end the player can withdraw all his mined (winning) coins

Nope, he's not bothered to reply or talk about escrow yet.

Save your idea until he uses an escrow.

seriously 2500 $ for an idea?
there will be more people interested on your offer if you escrow the bounty first. You can find the escrow guy on service section.
honestly i doubt if you will give 2500$ just for an idea for free, but i might be wrong.

While all are running nuts because a ghost is offering money the important questions are not read

--> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1453023

This is not even an idea I give you to all for free.
I NEED IT. MAYBE YOU NEED IT. AND A LOT OF PEOPLE NEED IT  :o 8)

And there is one option left - pay 11% fee. (NO I WONT!)
But I dont want to do the work - I just want to use it  :P

If you need an idea, take mine from the post above and send me the USD 2500. Thanks.

You can reward a small btc to every people for posting their idea here. This will encourage more people in here.

What I see here is you trying to distract this thread from the beginning.

The original poster did not offer an escrow and he did so purposely. If you do not feel comfortable with it, then just do not take the risk of giving your idea away with no securities. I personally wouldn't take the risk either. But this is a decision you have to make for (and only for) yourself. You have absolutely no right to tell others what to do.

Your opinion is questionable, but repeating that in a spammish manner is a major bummer!

lol - think by yourself and dont rip off someones idea  :D  ;D

Asking something for nothing that is not concrete in a form of payment is not doing your campaign ".. in search of the best idea for a game that will make me rich!" any good.
Put the funds, which is a substantial amount, into escrow (a trusted one) or just put this up on fivver.  :-[

If he wanted to do so, don't you think he would have done that already?
I will never understand this escrow talk, really. I mean, asking the original poster for an escrow would be maybe acceptable, but framing it as requirement is beyond the pale. Unfortunately, the latter is dominating in this forum.

If the risk it too high for your taste, then just don't participate. Simple as that.

By the way, there is no such thing as an "trusted escrow".

I have an idea:

Put up an advert with clickbait headline "2500$ for your idea" on a bitcoin forum and wait to see what it brings in? Can I haz my 2500$ in bitcoin now?

My original post was saying to use escrow so people take the offer seriously. No spam here I'm just letting others know that they are giving their ideas away for free with zero guarantee of payment from the OP. And as for not having a right to tell others what to do, I believe we all have a right to offer whatever advice we see fit to anyone here. Why is my opinion questionable?

not that they'd take it seriously. without escrow, he better just think on his on. but if ever someone give him a good idea, he might not be online forever once he sees this good idea but he will consider implementing this idea from someone.

 Hi I got a idea. How about Memory game when you were kid you will flip tiles and try to pick the right card to match 2 or monopoly,   if you like send half or all $2500 to 3BZnt4DYq348SmQY2nG57brswABPSGmFL4.

This what you get when you don't use the escrow for such high bounty. Just trolls, no real or honest ideas :P  ;D

Use a pen while playing and you always win !

a Mining System which pays the Users in Front to get an credit ongoing which will be paid back with mining power.

please explain a bit more how the advanced payment works so OP will get back at least the advanced payments

thanks

I have some good set of ideas to share. However, I do want the OP to ensure the funds are real by escrowing or by other trustable sources.

Ok, here is my offer.

Platform for playing "Hearthstone" and bet matches using BTC

Benefits:
Game is popular
A lot of random what brings Fun
Project will be Interested by PROs, who will expect to winning money in a long term
It's can be advertised by streamers of Hearstone, what is cheap and very effective in this case, get in the news and can become really popular
And a lot more

He was online 4 days ago....

This is nice, I do play HS and enjoy betting on it ! How could this be developed ? Any success on previous platforms ?

I have already script for this kind of thing. But the thing is there are moderators who can be an observer of the game and get comission

- Created an account.
- Wants your ideas posted in the comments.
- Gets some cool ideas without paying.

Stop posting your ideas unless he puts an escrow.

Why?

I have a brilliant idea that can earn $200-$300 everyday but it requires monthly recurring investment of $1500.I am short on funds so I cant invest if op can invest $1500,I can share my idea with him on a condition that we both will have 50% each from profit.Op has also assure me some how that he will not cheat me

Because he is getting the ideas for free?

This is not true. He said he will put 2500USD on the table for the best idea. This is not "for free".
Why don't people just post their ideas with some sort of disclaimer that the 2500USD have to be paid before the idea is adopted?

Many people just don't get the point that an escrow is absolutely useless. The OP could very well put the 2500USD to an escrow,
let you post your ideas and then ask the escrow for a refund because none of the submissions meet his definition of "a good idea".

The escrow is a misconception, does not give you any additional security, and is - in the way it is used here in the forum - completely pointless.
Why do people still do it?

You basically say escrow is useless because OP can say there were no good ideas and take his money back but you state the text in red? If OP is not truthful about putting the money on the table then he is getting free ideas.

When I ask the OP to use escrow I would expect some sort of guarantee that there will be a payout and maybe let the escrow person confirm this as well so he doesn't pull the "there were no good ideas" excuse. If OP does that then I assure you there will be pages upon pages of decent ideas. But this will never happen since no one (in their right mind) will pay $2500 for an idea so everyone is basically wasting their time.

any news from the op?

he abandoned the thread already?  ;D probably Didn't like our ideas at all  :P

This again is unfair for the OP. In your "selfish" scheme, he must perform a payout regardless of the quality of the ideas even though he specifically asked for "good ones". Why should he pay for bad ones?

I see no other possibility than posting ideas using a legal disclaimer. Everything else is just illusion.

I have never used an escrow and I will never use an escrow by the way. Being the "seller" I would never trust an anonymous dude on the internet with a decent amount of BTC. Even if an escrow has enough positive ratings, I think that for most it's just a matter of how much money is at stake until they hit the road. Being the "buyer" it's also useless. Unless you are dealing with actual goods that can be checked if they have been delivered, an escrow has no way of verifying if the expectations of a buyer have been met.

An escrow if a wonderful PR gag, and that's it.

I agree with this 100 %. Why he would pay so much money for some random idea here, when with that money he can pay some professionals to do that job. Its not a little money, and to he just say to someone" hey you have nice idea here it is 2500 $ " sounds too good to be truth.
And we all know here very good what that means. OP is probably just bored and trying to get some inspiration here.

Of course he will not use escrow, when this is just one big joke. This thread is good just for +1 in spreadsheet in signature campaigns. People will tell what first they think of and that's it. But I think its ok, that means its not completely wasting time on this topic.

Or maybe one day someone will come and see some good idea and really use it for some game. That would be good thing.
My simple idea is risiko, or any other war game that can be played with btc. Like some tournaments or one on one will be good.

We all know what those "professionals" deliver during their fixed salary 9 to 5 jobs: crap.
The greatest ideas come from ordinary people like you and me.

Maybe we just think totally different  ;) I would just post my idea along with a disclaimer. You would rather post nothing without an escrow. If a payout is to be made, who has the higher chances?

And why shouldn't anyone pay 2500 US$ for an idea. I have seen many people do that before. I have done random 200$ giveaways in the past ... they all went smooth without an escrow.

No he doesn't have to pay for bad ones. There is only one payout and it is to the best idea. There will be at least one good idea if he set the payout like that. Is it selfish? Maybe but that's the best way to serious responses. Does the OP have to do what I say? Of course not. Just because someone says "do x" on this forum doesn't make it mandatory. It's more like an opinion or suggestion even if i didn't explicitly say that.



Anyone can bail out with your money but an escrow who deals with x amount of btc on a daily basis and makes a profit wouldn't bail out with 0.001x btc. That's just stupid. It will be reasonably safe to do a small transaction within the amount of funds he handles. Now an anonymous dude with 0 ratings has nothing to lose so he is way more likely to run of with whatever small amount he gets because he has to reputation to uphold.

If there is no one here who deals with that much cash then maybe you can break it up into parts and use multiple escrows. But hey no one is forcing you or OP to do anything with your money.

I have an idea. If you want an idea about my idea, check out my site (it's 64blocks.com) ... I can also do your escrow, but there are many others who can do so as well.

Who said he has to pay for every idea people share? When he's promising, he obviously should guarantee the people that if their idea is chosen, he'll get paid.

and what selfish scheme? He's a newbie, he's the one who promised to offer that for the best idea and now he's nowhere.

What if some people were planning or have planned some best ideas but they didn't had enough money to implement those, and they saw this thread and exposed their idea to everyone here assuming they'll be getting $2500.

Now he won't get that $2500 and also his idea might have already got copied by others who have the skills and enough funds to make it happen?

You should escrow the funds first.. noone cares wheter you have a link to an address owning those 5 btc.

Its good idea keep it up escrow is must

The classic Tic Tac Toe game.


PM me for my bitcoin address where you can send that $2,500.

I'm assuming this is a troll, let me know if I'm wrong.

Because a basic Tic Tac Toe idea for $2500 isn't a great idea  ;D

A few more guidelines would be helpful, such as:

Do you require a game development document?
Do you require proof of concept?

the OP is the troll  ;D

Here's an idea for anyone to use :
https://i.imgur.com/GXbjWXo.png

yes there is any escrow?


I think so! :(

δεν περίμενα πως θα έδινε κάπoιo πόσo

I think he left. ;D

There are so many ideas in my mind actually few are already worked and getting good results. But $2500 is quite lower price it will better to give me royalty or rev share on profit.

i have a few ideas,
one or two i would never tell you, unless you could prove you had funds for development and marketing etc.
and would not want $2500 but shares in the company

what you offer makes you seem like you are not serious about anything
as $2500 for a concept is nothing if that concept works
and too many details are missing,
you have not stated anything about what you want in the business/profit side of things

You're saying this on a dead thread where the OP stopped login to this forum on May 1.

Read a few previous posts before you post yours. Duh!

Chess with software based auto player, if you have luck, you win and get your balance twice back. So chance of win is 49.95%. PM me for BTC address for 4.6 BTC transfer.  ;D
