Based Games

A seven-day game on Farcaster: 200 players, a new game every day, and a prize pool of over $5,000.

Overview

Based Games was a social game on Farcaster that ran in August 2024. 200 players, split into eight groups, played a new game every day for seven days, competing for a prize pool of over $5,000.

My Contributions

I led development, which meant building the games myself and also running the project, so 200 players could play every day without anything breaking.

I built the games, including Tetris, Snake and a 3D stacking game, each with a real-time leaderboard. They ran on Next.js with wagmi and RainbowKit, the Farcaster Frames were built with Frog, and Supabase handled the data.

Farcaster and Web3 Features

We built several Farcaster Frames: one to check minting eligibility, and others for the puzzle games, voting and showing results as soon as they were in.

Players signed messages through wagmi and RainbowKit to prove they owned the NFT and to verify their player status and votes.
