This 'Minecraft' Clone Puts Every Game Action On-Chain—Here’s Why
Chunked, a Minecraft clone on the Somnia blockchain testnet, records all in-game actions on-chain, including player movements and block interactions. MSquared, a division of Improbable, aims to explore the potential of crypto gaming through this project. The game operates smoothly despite on-chain integration, though issues like disappearing blocks can occur. Chunked lacks a traditional server, relying entirely on the Somnia testnet, ensuring its permanence even if MSquared ceases support. The game’s logic and world data are stored on-chain and can be accessed or modified by the community. MSquared plans further blockchain experiments, with successful tests potentially evolving into commercial projects as Somnia transitions to mainnet later this year.
