for this game its just the binary that is stored as notes on nostr and downloaded from there, then put back together, and ran in the browser.
to make a multiplayer game, most of the logic is done on the game client side.
For my connect4 game, the game client will only listen for notes from the first two players who join. And they will send inputs to the relays when its their turn.
The game client will listen for the new input notes from the other player and apply them to the game.
For more complicated games you could use nostr to connect two players over webRTC and have a fully peer to peer game.
The only issue i found with this is it leaks your ip address, but maybe there is a way around that.

i made this random game to test out storing wasm files on nostr. works pretty well.
the game is downloaded from nostr relays and rendered in the browser.

the person you are playing will need to know what relay you are connected to as the default relays wont work forever.
so adding the relay to the end of the url is probably the only way to do it
https://connect4.xyz/7dq9m4::nostr.zbd.gg
so it would look something like that

2024-03-22 23:30:55

you can add custom relays to connect4.xyz now. its a bit scuffed but it works.
ideally you would share the relay you are connecting to in the URL, but it might make it a bit long, i will try it out.

working at a start up is basically the same as being in a wow guild. i will not elaborate

2024-02-09 02:20:54

i decided that using nostr to log in to connect4.xyz is kinda annoying, for posting the result it is great, but it adds some friction. I can just get the user to type in their lightning address instead of requesting it from relays/browser extensions.
to keep the users session, i will generate a nostr key that is stored in the local browser, which is fine as its only ever used for connect4 games and it doesnt matter if you lose it.
this way the user will always be able to go back to a game they disconnected from or want to play later, by using the local nsec in their browser.
if they want to post the result to nostr then they will use a browser extension to do so until better methods are supported, or they can copy paste the result in to w/e nostr client they are using.
