Libplanet is a .NET library for creating multiplayer online game in decentralized fashion, which means the whole gameplay occurs on a peer-to-peer network among equal nodes rather than an authorized central server. Under the hood, it incorporates many features (e.g., digital signature, BFT consensus, data replication) of a blockchain.
Features
- It has competitive advantages over other solutions for decentralized gaming
- A game app does not have to communicate with another running process, hence it doesn't require extra marshaling or processes management
- To draw a parallel, Libplanet is closer to SQLite than MySQL or PostgreSQL
- Libplanet is a .NET library, so every game logic can be written in the same language, C#, and run on the blockchain
- No glue code or "smart contracts" are needed
- Unlike almost every blockchain system, it does not force users to create and deal with yet-another-cryptocurrency
