Etherplay is now live on the Ethereum mainnet! Play the first ever video game on Ethereum!

After lots of hard work we are proud to announce the release of the Etherplay skill game platform on the Ethereum mainnet!

The first ever video game to be live on ethereum is "Etherspace", inspired by the famous “Asteroids” game. It let you drive one of these crazy spaceships and shoot rocks in space. Be careful though, aliens lurk around ;-)

Get yourself some ether if you do not have any and set up an ethereum browser. Metamask (https://metamask.io) if you do not want to run an ethereum node yourself or Mist (https://github.com/ethereum/mist/releases).

Point it at http://etherplay.io/game/etherspace and have fun!

If you would like to know more about Etherplay we have written an article here : https://medium.com/@etherplay/what-is-etherplay-d51424674931

For further discussion we have setup a subreddit here : https://www.reddit.com/r/Etherplay/ and we would love to get your feedback.

Hi Caladonian,
We will post a video to explain how to play. You will have 8 days to try to make the best score.
I wish all the best.
Thanks for your interest

What do you mean ?


As it is a free competition it should be fine. When the proper release will start, every attempts will have to be paid and in that case, it will depends on your country/states.

Best of luck to you

It is a modified version of the previous beta whose reddit thread is here : https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/51m74f/etherplay_beta_is_out/

For the proper release we will have another game

Hi guys!

I am new to this forum and I hope this is the right place but we at Etherplay wanted to reach a wider audience and thought bitcointalk was a good place to spread the words :

Our platform as you can see from our website (http://etherplay.io) is a skill game plaform. It allow players to play fun little games for a fee and winners get the jackpot. We are using ethereum as our backend so that our system is transparent.

On November 30th we are going to release our beta for 8 days. Players with the highest score at the end will win some ether. The top score will get 5 ether and the other 31 will get 5 ether divided in decreasing order between them.

You can see more details here on the ethereum subredit : https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/5eigl8/etherplays_upcoming_beta_play_and_win_ether/

Hope you will participate.

Thanks
