This is a Decentralised App (dApp) Game developed based on Ethereum blockchain. Smart contracts as the core of this project are written in Solidity language. Actually I walked through an interaction tutorial from cryptoZombie.io and I used those codes as the start point to develop the game in a new branch. The project is accompanied by an html file (index.html) as a GUI for the dApp. Certainly I will improve it in near future and publish it here.
1- Install node and npm
2- Install Ganache-cli as your private testnet
3- Install truffle to compile, test and deploy your smart contracts.
4- Install web3.js in order for the front-end could interact with deployed scontract.
The game is very easy, it's all about Zombies and kitties. You can create Zombie, level it up, transfer it to others and attack to other's Zombies or Kitties. Who are Kitties? They are from another dApp Game, cryptoKitties. It's very cool that thanks to blockchain technology contracts can also interact to each other easily. This is the way in which Zombies can attack at Kitties in another separate dApp Game.
1- Clone the repository into your directory.
2- You can compile the contracts using truffle compile
3- Run ganache-cli and you will get 10 key pairs as your account.
4- Also you can use Ropsten as your testnet instead of ganache.
5- Go to Remix.ethereum.org and open the contracts in Remix IDE.
6- In coompile tab select ZombiesOwnership.sol and compile it.
7- In Run tab select Web provider as your Environment if you use ganache or Injected Web3 if you use Ropsten.
8- Select ZombiesOwnership and hit the create button to deploy the contract.
9- Now copy the contract address, and in the index.html copy it instead of current cryptoZombiesAddress variable.
That's it. Now open index.html in your browser and you can play with your Zombies.
I do plan to improve the GUI of the Game showing zombies graphically. Also I have an idea to add a new feature in which players with cetain conditions can sell their zombies in an Auction and get more tokens.
