線上遊戲開發與虛擬資產管理之區塊鏈框架設計

Blockchain Based Online Game Development and Virtual Asset Management Framework

現今主流的電子遊戲為線上多人模式，而線上多人遊戲容易衍伸出作弊與公平性的問題。而使用區塊鏈公開、透明的特性恰可解決遊戲相關的公平性問題。然而市面上有限的區塊鏈遊戲大多為特定遊戲功能所設置，在泛用性、易用性與重複使用性皆不足，使得區塊鏈遊戲開發程序繁雜。本研究將設計一套區塊鏈遊戲開發的標準化架構，包含帳號管理、遊玩機制、虛擬資產發行機制、以及虛擬資產交易市場，針對線上多人遊戲解決公平性問題，供開發商遵循此架構選擇需要的功能模組進行組合、開發遊戲。本研究列舉「博弈遊戲」與「遊戲資產交易」作為驗證此架構的例子，透過此架構可解決博弈最容易面臨的規則公平問題和確保遊戲資產交易中玩家的虛擬資產紀錄安全。

Nowadays, the mainstream of electronic games is online multiplayer games, but many cheating and fairness issues derive from the online multiplayer games. Using the feature, public and transparency, of blockchain technology could solve fairness issues. However, Games applying blockchain are usually specific for certain functions and lack universal usability, accessibility, and reusability, making the development of blockchain games complicated. This research designed a standardized framework of blockchain game development, containing registration process, gameplay, virtual asset issuance, and virtual asset marketplace. To solve online multiplayer game fairness issues, the framework could provide game developers required function modules to develop blockchain games. This research uses“gambling games”and“virtual asset trading”as examples to validate the framework. This framework could solve the fairness problems of the rules in gambling games and ensure the safety of the gamers’virtual assets trading.
