Ever play the phone game adventure capitalist?
You could create a base token, attach a bidbot to this token to give it a use.
Create a mining token that mines the base token (ratio mining so you can control it more).
Create a mining token that mines the 1st mining token.
Continue on with this as far as you want creating miners that mine the previous miner.
Create a website that reads all this information and displays it in a game like format with countdowns for each miner and an option to exchange the base token for miners.
I like it, use the tokens to create an idle game. I think this is actually very doable.
It is quite doable. A little JavaScript and a dash of nodejs, some steem to create the tokens and a domain to point to your vps running it all.
Give a reward to your players, X amount of your newest miner when they come out for every Y Steem Power delegated to the bidbot taking in your base token.
Then make sure to come out with a new miner every few weeks and sell it for STEEMP on the market and you have a goldmine. You could even call it goldmine.
This came to me a few weeks ago, but it would take well over a month for me to learn all the coding required and to make it a thing. Someone good with Java could build a MVP within a day.
You could even connect the game to a tribe, and use the tribes currency as the games premium currency. Then take it a step further and burn the premium currency players spend in the game, increasing value for the tribe.
Someone needs to do this.
If I could afford to pay a developer, I'd have this and about a dozen other golden ideas running for UpFundMe. This idea isn't even in my top 3.
Brb learning how to code.
game on. :-)
Excellent
Interesting.
