Hello Bitcoin Community!
I am here to announce the release of the beta version of
http://MyBitMine.coPlease not that this game is still in the first stages of public beta testing, and bugs may be present. Please read the ToS prior to playing this game.IntroductionSo what is MyBitMine really? Well, it is a browser based game and Bitcoin faucet at the same time. In short, you control a mine where you actively have to mine for resources. These resources can be used on upgrading your mine, and some resources can be exchanged for Bitcoins. At this moment, only gold can be exchanged to Bitcoin, but upgrading your account will enable you to sell the rest of your resources to other members in exchange for Gold & Bitcoin.
The game is rather simple. You complete a captcha in order to be actively mining. In turn, you will receive resources every minute. These resources can then be used to upgrade your mine further so you earn even more resources, or even extend the time before you have to be actively mining again. Here are a few of the upgrades you can recieve:
Workers & OresWorkers and gold ores both enable you to earn more gold. Iron, Coal & Gem ores allow you to earn these resources.
Pickaxe, Equipment & ChambersThe Pickaxe enables you to earn 2% more gold with each upgrade, while the Equipment gives you 10% more time between captcha entries. The Chamber gives you an additional 5 minutes of mining time.
Beta test huh?Yes this game is still very young and undergoing development, but you will be able to help form the future of the game by participating in this test period. The best part is: You will still be able to withdraw your earnings!
So what does it mean that this game is in beta? Well, it means that new features are being added and that I accept your suggestions for new features. At this moment, it also means that withdrawals are handled manually - but automatic payout methods will be enabled later in the development.
You might also notice that the site looks unfinished - like the web design is rather simple, and the images are simply just horrible. And that could not be more true. If you read below, you will find out how you are able to help getting this game to be the best that it can be!
During this beta test, all communication will happen on this thread. So please post below in case you have any questions or concerns regarding this game.
How you can help making this game a realityThere are a ton of ways in which you can help make this game happen! I encourage you to check out our contact page for more details, but I will describe a few ways here.
http://mybitmine.co/contact.php1. Play the game!
You are helping by simply playing the game. The data that is collected from you playing the game and your progress will be used in order to fine tune details for the game.
2. Provide feedback.
It would be a great help if you can provide some feedback. Maybe you notice a bug, have a great idea for some new features or you have anything at all to say. You are able to help shape the nature of this game! Simply post your thoughts below and they will be seriously considered.
3. Help us design the website.
As you quickly will notice, the site design is not very modern. And all the images are very simple. You can help us design images and even create a new front end design. You will of course receive a special listing with your name & website on a special credits page. That would be a huge help in getting this game up and running properly!
