I'm finishing the dashboards for my internet scavenger hunt: https://cyb.farm
I've been working on it for the past year, and the link is now public. The game will start on the 31st this month, so I got 10 days to stress out now :)
Looks awesom. I like the game idea, especially the Story hook. I assume i have to create an account to play?
That's the neat part, you don't need an account ! I designed the whole game with this idea in mind. The only thing that's used to "track" user's progression is the scoreboard, which is totally optional (but I find it pretty neat, and I hope people will use it ^^).
And even in the case of the scoreboard, no account is needed. Upon submitting the first flag, you get to pick your username (3 char, displayed on the board), and receive a cryptographic token that will be asked for to submit the next flag. The token is used to find back your username and update your score. New tokens are generated for each flag.
Sounds pretty neat, definitely will give it a try.
Hey just a reminder, the hunt is open ;) Please share the link if you like it, the more hunters there will be, the funnier !
