Maybe one day, maybe never, we try things


As we mentioned in a previous post (yep, we’re already repeating ourselves), we're trying to build a mini-game using multiple AIs... and, well... sometimes it’s beautifully chaotic. Like, you ask an AI to fix a tiny bug, and it spits out... a full homepage. With Hive login, Keychain, and all the bells and whistles. Thanks, really, but all I wanted was the "start" button to work—not to reinvent Facebook.
But hey, it looks cool, so we’re keeping it. 😎

So yeah, you’ll land on a page like this (no, it’s not a new crypto social network... not yet anyway).

And then, tadaaa! You’ll see a health bar. Not yours (well, maybe...), the monster’s. Every time a player sends some SECRET, it hurts the monster.
And you can earn this SECRET FOR FREE by commenting under our latest game post. Easy. Each post tells a mini-story (sometimes with frogs, sometimes not), just for fun. The games are called something like SECRET N°XXXX (yeah, super original, we know).

We gladly accept TIPS (not mandatory, but appreciated ❤️).
And there’s also a list of free tips that everyone can use, no tokens needed:

  • !HUG → once per day (go on, give someone a free hug 🤗)
  • !HOPE → once per day (because we all need a little)
  • !KING → once per day (maybe you’re royalty... maybe not)
  • !QUEEN → once per day (why not be a queen for a moment?)
  • !WEED → once per hour (yep... and sometimes you even get a bonus vote 🌿)

And us? We reply to your comments with tips too. Gotta keep the vibe alive!

A little vote is always appreciated (we won’t judge you if you forget... well, maybe just a little 😏)

Back to the game! Where were we? Oh right, the next image—to keep you from getting lost (just kidding, you’re probably already lost, aren’t you?)

So, you can send a donation—any amount (it’s the thought that counts ❤️):

  • 0.001 SECRET
  • 0.01 SECRET
  • 0.1 SECRET
  • 1 SECRET (the real ones know 💸)

Each donation should reduce the monster’s health bar by 1 point.
SPOILER ALERT: The donation works, but the bar doesn’t move.

Here, you can see your SECRET token balance. Handy, right? Like, before donating, you’d wanna know if you’re ready to smack a monster or just toss a virtual peanut.

And right next to that, you can check the balance of the @vote-com2 account. The idea is to build a "pool"—a magical chest full of SECRET that we can later distribute among players. Kinda like blockchain Robin Hood.

In the image below, there’s even a player leaderboard. Or there should be. Because—yep—spoiler alert: it doesn’t show the donations I made during testing (guess what? Yep... the THIRD TAB again 😤).

Let’s try a little donation and see if it works (fingers crossed):

WAIT A SECOND... WOW!
While writing this post (sweating over our keyboard), we were waiting for an AI update.

And boom: YOU SEE THAT?!

99 HIT POINTS!
Not 100. Ninety-nine.
Precise. Technical. Mildly frustrating.

Let’s refresh the page to see if it sticks:

NOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!! 😱
And poof—everything vanishes.
Should I ask the AI to save the info in cookies? But what if someone doesn’t accept cookies... or deletes them? Yeah...

Anyway. Let’s get back to testing donations (we’re as persistent as hobbits on a quest).

Good news: it works with all donation amounts.
Bad news: the leaderboard still refuses to show up.
It’s like me when someone asks me to exercise.

So, for Tab 1, we still need to figure out how to reset the health bar to 100% on page refresh or logout. And more importantly, how to make the leaderboard visible to everyone.

Moving on to Tab 2

Here, you can see how many SECRET tokens each person holds:

It also shows users who used to have tokens, even if they’ve got none left now...
But the balances are accurate and line up with Hive Engine’s RICHLIST. So we’re good 🧠✅

Now for... the infamous THIRD TAB.
First—a quick lesson in AI prompting:

Tell it exactly what you want from the start:

I want 3 tabs
Tab 1 does this
Tab 2 does that
Tab 3 does this

And when you change something, specify which tab. Otherwise, it rewrites the whole thing—even the parts that were working. Nightmare. 😬

So what’s the goal here?
When someone sends a donation to @vote-com2 with the memo "fight" (as shown in the earlier screenshots), we want that to show up here.

But... despite its best efforts, the AI can’t quite get it to work. Technological defeat.

ERROR: I used up all my free GPT and DEEPSSEK attempts, trying to get them to "talk to each other."
But just imagine: if we could actually get all this working...

We could add farming, crafting, trading. And with an automatic pool, it would be pure magic.
But yeah, no 24/7 server yet... we’re still running on local.

Just a reminder:
You can earn SECRET for free by commenting on the latest post titled SECRET N°XXX, or the next game post SECRET N°XXXX.

Or buy some, if you want to support the project.

Anyway... we’re messing around with AI, and it’s a blast. 😄
