Problem Statement

his is Proof of Concept Game that uilizes utilizes zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) implemented through O1js, a TypeScript library for zk-SNARK circuits. These ZKPs enable players to commit to strategies without revealing them, ensuring game-theoretic integrity. I also used O1js's new offchain storage API, allowing for efficient management of large game states without compromising on-chain efficiency or security. This offchain storage solution is pivotal in handling the complex, evolving nature of player strategies and game progression.The game's unique feature is the incorporation of real-time weather data as a decisive factor in battle outcomes. I explored Acurast, a decentralized oracle network, to fetch and integrate this data. Acurast's architecture, built on Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), allows for the secure, confidential, and verifiable acquisition and on-chain submission of weather data. This implementation creates a trustless bridge between off-chain real-world conditions and on-chain game mechanics.
