Title: Blockfight vs Etheroll comparison, an interactive alien fighting Dice game
Post by: jchi2210 on January 14, 2019, 02:58:06 PM
Hey guys, I was able to get in on the Beta for a new wager game that is played on the Halo blockchain called Blockfight and it is made by Halo's gaming studio, Block and Chain games. They are about to release their first blockchain game where you can wager on fights using Halo, Bitcoin, and Ethereum! The Halo blockchain supports wrapped coins and they can easily wrap BTC and ETH and do the game hashes on the Halo blockchain and convert back to ETH and BTC when you want to cash out. Blockfight should be out before the end of January. I did a comparison to Etheroll (popular dice game), you can watch below:

They also announced this the other day:

"We want to give you one more update before the Beta ends tomorrow night. In this update, the big new thing is the ability to pre-set the number of fights you want to autoplay consecutively. This was a community requested feature which allows players who prefer to autoroll play several rounds in a row. As you can see, you can also cancel it if you're mid-stride and wish to stop."

The thing that they really have going for them is speed and free transactions. They have instantaneous free transactions and that really puts them in a great place for blockchain games, as you can tell by the video. There is a new game called Decimated (by Fracture Labs) that is going to use the Halo blockchain for their in-game currency because of it's speed/free transactions. It's a A post-apocalyptic multiplayer survival game with true digital scarcity and item ownership. Here's the link to their website and Youtube channel:

Don't need to post duplicate thread since you already make some post about this Blockfight https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5095680.msg49185371#msg49185371.

The game is something unique when it comes to Dice game perspective for it to be interactive.

Honestly it looks legit very original but also after a while dice games do not require this much graphic since people just get it on automated roll and just go with it. With this dapp you are going to look like you are playing a game and a bad graphic game at that and you will be require to watch the animation as well whereas normally many people just prefer places like etheroll for the pace not for the lack of graphics. I prefer primedice even tough it is btc (they added eth too) and that way I can really play quite fast and also get the most graphics I could hope for.

The idea is amazing and the execution is there so I applaud anyone who has spend on this from the start but its not something for me, I would rather not even look at the dice game while on automated and instead scroll reddit meanwhile whereas this is more like a game instead.

The features when i checked captured my attention and considered the game a worth paying attention to. The ability of the player to autoroll and equally be able to pause and stop the game was amazing, as this feature aren't see in many others like this to be precise. As a matter of fact the conversion form looks good for every gamer as this enable swap of different form of digital currency BTC, ETH, ....etc.
