AIP-483: Bored Arcade: The Ultimate Degen Arcade & Mini-Game Creation Factory

Hey SmartAPE, Jumanji here one of the co-founders of Bored Arcade.

  1. Why not wait for the Banana Bill instead of running the AIP gauntlet through our irresponsible voting system?
    1) We want support from the community and doa, 2) AIPs have been proven to pass because our partners Ape Express just passed
  2. What’s the current dev status? I saw in the deck that the kickoff was this past May. Did that happen? If not, why not?
    We planned on launching an AIP earlier but our timelines moved to fit the tentative launch date. Thanks for catching that typo :wink: we still plan on being live with several mini-games at launch.
  3. I note that it’s targeted at ApeChain, which isn’t live yet. So, what chain - if any - is it currently deployed on?
    This platform will be native to ApeChain and we think it’s essential that developers build natively.
  4. What backend platform - if any - are you guys using? And are you aware that Sequence already has ApeChain integration via AIP-418
    There are some similarities as it is related to a gaming platform. Still, our focus and features are to bring the degen communities to ApeChain by providing a unique take on BAYC/Yuga-themed mini-game arcade. So imagine an adult degen Chuckie E Cheese but Chuckie is Curtis :sweat_smile:. Another vital piece is that we have access to a massive degen community with Crypto is Fun (SAF) which we will for sure be leveraging :joy:
  5. I note that you’re asking for $800K as a grant instead of a venture fund that gives back to the DAO. Any reason why that is - especially since revenue will be generated from this proposal?
    We want to showcase how the DAO can work and lead the way in giving back to the DAO to show it can be profitable when they support projects that want to build natively on the chain.

Hope this answers your questions, we appreciate you taking the time to look through the deck and pointing out some typos for us. This is exactly why these kinds of discussions are great before voting. DM me or pinky anytime and for more technical questions we can hop on a call with our CTO Douglas who’s the brain behind the development LOL.
