“Hey people, I’ve been working on a multiplayer game platform for a while, made my own web engine, graphics engine and a game engine. The idea is to make not gambling games but skill-based games, the first game implemented is bomberman.” — Battlecoin.org Developer

Battlecoin’s developer created a game much like the retro version we all loved so the crypto-community could enjoy fun skill-based competitions. The first game which is a “test” he says on Bitcointalk recreates the mayhem within the classic Bomberman and the creator claims, “new games will be built on top of this, Bomberman is just a test, and it supports multiple servers (regions) so that everyone can have a low ping.” The platform holds multiple servers with more to come in the future but for now there is only one located in Berlin says the developer. He explains: “In the following weeks I’ll buy additional servers depending on where the players are from.”

Loving it, this was one of my favourite games back in the day I will definitely have a go at this and hopefully as the developer says there will be more simple games to come.

The graphics are a bit retro, but I guess the target market would be the old Bomberman players back in the days. I hope the lag will be better, once more servers are created. I am a big supporter of games being linked to Bitcoin, and for people to earn some Bitcoins.

Once all the bugs & bots are sorted out, it could grow much bigger.
