The journey has been challenging, but today, I'm thrilled to announce the beta version of our Hive-powered Jigsaw Puzzle game where you can solve solve puzzles, earn rewards, and build a community on the Hive Blockchain. The project utilizes HiveSigner for secure interactions.

Important note:
The project is currently deployed on Vercel, with the backend hosted on Render. Since this is a beta release, the final name of the project has not been decided yet. Major functionalities have been developed, with some still in progress. If you access the website and see no games or leaderboards, please try again in 3–5 minutes. Render puts the server to sleep after 15 minutes of inactivity, so it may take a moment to restart.
The Vision:
Earning crypto rewards through gaming is fun, but most of the games over the internet provide unfair advantages to certain players undermining the experience. Also, the chances of exploits are high since the bots are easier to make than ever. Our goal is to deliver a game that minimizes these issues and enhances the gaming experience. Jigsaw puzzles are perfect for this. They not only solve the problems mentioned but also offer brain stimulation, joy, and excitement.
Why Jigsaw Puzzles Can't Be Exploited
Typically, Jigsaw games are generated client side. Whatever is generated on the client-side cannot be trusted, and thus, can be exploited. This is where this project is different than the typical ones.
Here, all jigsaw puzzles are prepared server-side. Rewardable puzzles are uploaded daily and are valid for rewards for only 24 hours. Puzzle shapes are dynamically generated, ensuring that the game remains random and difficult for bots to exploit.
How It Works:
Solve Puzzles: Users can choose from various difficulty levels (coming soon) and solve jigsaw puzzles directly on the platform. Puzzles are labeled either "Play for Fun" or "Crypto Rewards." Only puzzles marked "Crypto Rewards" offer the option to proceed on the Hive blockchain.
Post Scores on the Hive Blockchain: Upon completing a puzzle, scores and completion times are recorded on the Hive blockchain, ensuring transparency, fairness, and proof of performance.
Get Rewarded: Based on the score and time taken to solve the puzzles, curators within the community determine how much each solver will be rewarded.
Curator-Driven Economy: The community of curators plays an essential role in assessing performance and fairly distributing rewards, creating a decentralized and community-driven reward system.
Leaderboard: Players who rank in the Top 20 on the leaderboard have a higher chance of earning more rewards, as curators tend to value top solvers.
Current Status:
- 90% Complete: The core functionality of the platform is built and fully operational on the Hive blockchain. Users can solve puzzles, and scores are successfully posted to the blockchain for review by curators.
- Live Demo Available: The project is deployed on Vercel, where potential users, investors, and partners can experience the functionality firsthand.
Future Vision:
Mobile App Development: We plan to expand this game to mobile platforms (iOS and Android) to reach a broader audience and make puzzle-solving more accessible on the go.
More Difficulty Levels: We will introduce new puzzle sizes (e.g., 7x7, 8x8, 9x9, 10x10) and competitive leaderboards.
Filters & Pagination: Currently, the platform's functionality is basic. Features like filters and pagination will allow users to easily find games with crypto rewards or those intended for fun/practice.
Design Improvements: Significant improvements to design and UX are on the roadmap.
User Feedback: As more users engage with the app, we look forward to your feedback and ideas for further development.
Why You Should Support Us:
Proven Concept: The core functionality is already live and deployed; your funding will help us expand and scale, not build from scratch.
Engaged Community Potential: Puzzle games have a broad and loyal following. By incorporating blockchain rewards, we tap into the natural engagement that comes with gaming communities while expanding into the crypto space.
Long-Term Scalability: With funding, we can rapidly scale the platform, attracting more users, and diversifying puzzles.
Innovative Use of Blockchain: This is not just another blockchain project; it is a truly engaging and innovative use case that bridges the gap between fun, gaming, and crypto rewards.
Mass adoption: Not everyone is a content creator or influencer. Our project allows children and adults alike to explore the blockchain, helping us drive mass adoption. Increased HIVE distribution could lead to greater demand.
How You Can Support Us:
Proposal: We're going to post a proposal with more details regarding the funding and stuff. We expect you all to support this cause, and help us achieve the things that we've planned for future, such as mobile app development and other features on web app.
