DAOventure

Introduction

DAOventure is an experimental browser-based roguelite game built on the Internet Computer platform. It uniquely combines engaging gameplay with DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) governance, aiming to create a community-driven game development ecosystem.

Current Status: Open Alpha

DAOventure is currently in open alpha, available at: https://bpo6s-4qaaa-aaaap-acava-cai.icp0.io/

Core Concept

DAOventure serves as a framework to experiment with bootstrapping a DAO and explore ideas for creating a functional, self-sustaining game ecosystem. The current phase focuses on laying the foundation for the game framework, while the next phase will emphasize DAO-driven game development.

Gameplay Overview

  • Character Creation: Select a randomly generated race and class combination
  • World Exploration: Progress through multiple themed zones (3 per run)
  • Scenario-based Gameplay: Face various challenges with branching paths
  • Turn-based Combat: Engage in strategic battles
  • Persistent Achievements: Unlock achievements that carry over between runs

DAO Integration (In Development)

  • Content Submission: Players can submit or edit game content through the DAO
  • Governance: Participate in voting for new content and game changes
  • Token Distribution: Earn tokens through gameplay, contributions, and governance
  • Note: The current DAO implementation is centralized and serves as a test for future decentralized governance

Technical Implementation

  • Backend: Motoko programming language
  • Frontend: Svelte with TypeScript
  • Platform: Internet Computer (ICP), fully on-chain in canisters
  • Browser-based game client
  • Smart contracts for DAO governance and token distribution (planned)

Development Roadmap

  1. Current Phase: Establish basic game mechanics and DAO concept
  2. Next Phase: Refine DAO mechanics and transition to community-driven development
  3. Future Plans:
    • Implement NFT minting for successful character runs
    • Explore incentive structures for participation
    • Develop sustainable funding mechanisms

Challenges and Limitations

  • DAO implementation requires significant community engagement
  • Solo development of the game framework presents inherent limitations
  • Basic content available for gameplay, with the bulk intended for DAO creation
