1 结项评价 / Final Evaluation
完成日期 / Completion Date: 2026-02-28
评价摘要 / Evaluation Summary:
WarSpore · Saga 在星火计划资助周期内完成了测试网 MVP 开发与初步社区验证。开发者 LuLuCrash 在八周内保持稳定交付，通过 Telegram 群和 Nervos Talk 论坛收集社区反馈，并据此完成了三项关键设计迭代。项目围绕 Spore 协议探索了全链卡牌游戏的资产机制与玩法循环，为 CKB 生态积累了一组链上游戏方向的实践样本。
Under the Spark Program grant, WarSpore · Saga completed testnet MVP development and initial community validation within the funding cycle. The developer, LuLuCrash, maintained steady delivery across eight weeks, collecting community feedback through a Telegram group and the Nervos Talk forum, and completing three major design iterations accordingly. The project explored on-chain asset mechanics and gameplay loops for a fully on-chain card game using the Spore Protocol, producing a set of practical references for on-chain gaming within the CKB ecosystem.
主要成果 / Key Achievements:
技术交付方面，项目完成了可公开体验的测试网版本，覆盖 PVE 核心玩法、基于 Spore 协议的链上资产与互动机制、150+ 张卡牌设计、DOB decoder 合约及 SVG 渲染 API。链上数据显示 20 个 JoyID 地址产生 55 笔交易，初步验证了 MVP 的可玩性。
社区验证方面，项目创建并运营 Telegram 群（31 名成员），在 Nervos Talk 发布 6 篇核心文档，收集约 10-15 条可执行反馈，并据此完成三项关键迭代：强化 BTC 生态定位、引入游戏化 OTC 的 PVP 代币模型、新增多语言支持。
知识沉淀方面，开发者提交了复盘报告，包含用户画像分层、链上行为统计及核心挑战分析。
On the technical side, the project delivered a public testnet build covering PVE core gameplay, on-chain asset and interaction mechanisms based on the Spore Protocol, 150+ card designs, a DOB decoder contract, and an SVG rendering API. On-chain data shows 20 JoyID addresses generating 55 transactions, providing initial validation of MVP playability.
On community validation, the project created and operated a Telegram group (31 members), published 6 core posts on the Nervos Talk forum, collected approximately 10-15 actionable pieces of feedback, and implemented three key iterations: strengthened BTC ecosystem positioning, introduced a gamified OTC PVP token model, and added multi-language support.
On knowledge output, the developer submitted a post-mortem report containing segmented user profiles, on-chain behavioral statistics, and an analysis of core challenges.
创新点与价值 / Innovation & Value:
项目的核心价值在于两点。第一，它在 CKB 上完成了一个可运行的全链 GameFi 原型，利用 Spore 协议将链上资产与卡牌玩法结合，证明了技术路径的可行性。第二，它在代币模型迭代中产出了一个有意思的设计思路：游戏化 OTC 机制将代币交易嵌入 PVP 对局本身，试图将代币价格波动转化为玩法张力，而非让它成为外部干扰。这个设计是否有效仍待验证，但作为思路探索，对同类项目有参考价值。
The project’s core value lies in two areas. First, it delivered a working fully on-chain GameFi prototype on CKB, combining on-chain assets with card gameplay via the Spore Protocol and proving the technical path is viable. Second, its token model iteration produced an interesting design idea: the gamified OTC mechanism embeds token trading into PVP matches themselves, attempting to turn token price volatility into gameplay tension rather than external noise. Whether this design works remains to be validated, but as a conceptual exploration, it offers reference value for similar projects.
2 评审过程 / Review Process
项目的评审重点集中在社区验证阶段。围绕三个核心议题，委员会与开发者进行了多轮反馈：产品定位（从 CKB 叙事转向 BTC 生态叙事的合理性）、PVP 代币模型（无限发行引发的社区分歧及 OTC 机制的引入）、以及报告质量（从营销活动总结升级为阶段性复盘报告）。
开发者的复盘报告经历了两个版本的迭代。第一版是营销活动总结，第二版引入了用户画像分层和链上数据分析。委员会对证据链完整度、用户分析框架的产品指导性、链上数据与用户画像的交叉分析等方面提出了进一步改进建议。开发者坦诚反馈当前条件下已达能力上限，委员会综合评估后决定接受第二版作为最终交付。
The review focused on the community validation phase. The committee and developer exchanged multiple rounds of feedback across three core topics: product positioning (the rationale for shifting from a CKB narrative to a BTC ecosystem narrative), the PVP token model (community divergence over unlimited issuance and the introduction of OTC mechanics), and report quality (upgrading from a marketing activity summary to a stage-level post-mortem).
The developer’s post-mortem went through two iterations. The first version was a marketing summary; the second introduced segmented user profiles and on-chain data analysis. The committee suggested further improvements on evidence chain completeness, actionability of the user segmentation framework, and cross-referencing on-chain data with user profiles. The developer candidly noted that these improvements exceeded current capacity given the project’s constraints. The committee accepted the second version as the final deliverable after weighing the project’s scope and resources.

4 星火计划委员会复盘 / Spark Committee Reflection
本项目属于 Spark 最高资助档位（$2,000），结项总结因此需要沉淀对 Spark 流程的可复用经验，而不仅仅是确认交付完成。以下是委员会从这个项目中提取的三条核心经验。
This project sits at Spark’s maximum funding tier ($2,000). The closure summary therefore should distill reusable process learnings for Spark, not merely confirm deliverable completion. Below are three core lessons the committee extracted from this project.
经验一：Solo developer 项目应在立项阶段就规划数据采集。 本项目在结项阶段才发现缺少行为数据来支撑交叉分析，导致多个关键判断只能依赖社群讨论和主观推断。如果在立项时就建议开发者埋入最基础的数据采集（进入次数、核心循环完成率、重复游玩比例），结项时就能用数据排序迭代优先级，而不是停留在"等上线后对比就知道"。这条经验的本质是：Spark 对 solo developer 的扶持应偏向软件工程化，把数据采集作为立项 checklist 的一部分。
Lesson 1: Solo developer projects should plan data collection at project start. This project discovered the absence of behavioral data only at closure, leaving multiple key decisions dependent on community discussion and subjective inference. Had basic instrumentation been set up at kickoff (entry counts, core loop completion rate, repeat play rate), the closure report could have used data to prioritize iterations rather than deferring validation to post-launch. The takeaway: Spark’s support for solo developers should lean toward software engineering practices, making data collection part of the kickoff checklist.
经验二：报告的定位决定其价值上限。 本项目的复盘从"营销活动总结"推进为"阶段性复盘报告"后，才开始具备对社区可复用的知识价值。委员会建议未来类似项目直接以"阶段性复盘"定位报告，将营销工作视为其中一个章节而非全部。
Lesson 2: The framing of a report defines its value ceiling. This project’s post-mortem gained significantly more reusable value once it evolved from a “marketing campaign summary” to a “stage post-mortem.” The committee recommends that future projects frame their reports as stage post-mortems from the start, treating marketing as one chapter rather than the whole.
经验三：对 micro-grant 项目的用户研究期望需要匹配资源。 委员会在评审中提出了证据链完整度、交叉分析、HCI 方法论等方向，这些建议本身是正确的，但对于一个预算 $600 营销部分、无用研经验的 solo developer 来说，部分要求超出了合理期望。未来 Spark 应在立项阶段就明确不同资助档位对应的报告深度期望，避免结项时的期望错配。
Lesson 3: User research expectations for micro-grants must match available resources. The committee’s review raised valid directions (evidence chains, cross-analysis, HCI methodology), but some exceeded reasonable expectations for a solo developer with a $600 marketing budget and no prior research experience. Going forward, Spark should clarify expected report depth for each funding tier at project start, avoiding expectation mismatches at closure.
5 星火计划委员会洞见 / Spark Committee Insights
引言：这一节要回答什么 / What this section addresses
开发者的复盘报告记录了 WarSpore 在 MVP 阶段遇到的核心挑战：社区规模小、用户留存低、代币模型存在分歧。这些是一手证据。委员会在此基础上，结合行业数据和生态趋势，尝试回答一个更高层面的问题：在 CKB 上做全链游戏，真正的瓶颈在哪里，优势路径是什么。
The developer’s post-mortem documented WarSpore’s core challenges at the MVP stage: small community, low retention, and token model disagreements. These are first-hand evidence. Building on this, the committee draws on industry data and ecosystem trends to address a higher-level question: where are the real bottlenecks and viable paths for building fully on-chain games on CKB.
5-1. WarSpore 的留存数据是行业常态，而非异常 / WarSpore’s retention figures are industry-normal, not anomalous
WarSpore 的 20 个地址中，大多数用户尝试一次后未再返回。开发者列举了五个可能原因但未做排序。放到行业背景下看，这个表现并不意外。
传统移动游戏 30 天留存率约 1.7%。区块链游戏同样面临留存困难：2025 年 Q3 全行业日活钱包约 466 万个，但头部产品 World of Dypians 靠的是每日签到和 quest 任务这类浅层链上互动来维持活跃数据，真正在游戏机制层面产生深度参与的用户远少于钱包数字所暗示的。
这意味着对 WarSpore 来说，问题的正确提法不是"为什么用户不回来"，而是"什么类型的链上机制能制造足够强的回访动机"。这是下面第二点要讨论的。
Among WarSpore’s 20 addresses, most users tried the game once and did not return. The developer listed five possible reasons without prioritizing them. In industry context, this performance is unsurprising.
Traditional mobile games retain roughly 1.7% of users at Day 30. Blockchain gaming faces similar challenges: Q3 2025 industry-wide daily active wallets totaled approximately 4.66 million, but leading titles like World of Dypians maintain activity primarily through shallow on-chain interactions such as daily logins and quest check-ins. Genuine deep engagement at the gameplay-mechanic level is far lower than wallet counts suggest.
For WarSpore, this means the right question is not “why don’t users return” but “what kind of on-chain mechanism creates a strong enough reason to return.” That is what the next point addresses.
5-2. 成功的全链游戏靠"链上独有的张力"留住人，而非靠资产叙事 / Successful fully on-chain games retain players through on-chain-exclusive tension, not asset narratives
2025 年全链游戏领域最值得注意的信号来自 Starknet 生态。Loot Survivor 2 在约三个月内产生超过 40 万美元收入，玩家购买 Dungeon Ticket 后，80% 的支付自动用于链上回购 $SURVIVOR 代币并注入社区治理金库。这个机制之所以有效，是因为链上执行消除了信任问题：合约自动执行，没有人为裁量，没有承诺。另一个例子是 Kamigotchi，玩家派出角色去采集资源，收益随时间累积，但角色的 HP 同时持续下降。留还是走、赚还是赔，这个决策完全由玩家承担，而且不可逆。
Bankless 在 2025 年链上游戏年度回顾中提炼了一条观察：全链设计只有在它让原本不可能的游戏机制变得可能时，才值得追求。换句话说，"全链"本身不是卖点，"因为全链所以能玩出这种体验"才是。
回到 WarSpore：它的游戏化 OTC 机制其实在尝试做类似的事。把代币交易嵌入对局，让胜负直接决定代币的"买卖"，这是一种试图用链上执行创造不可逆经济张力的设计。方向是对的，但目前还停留在概念层面，缺少实际对局数据来验证这个张力是否足够驱动回访。
The most instructive signal in the 2025 fully on-chain gaming space came from the Starknet ecosystem. Loot Survivor 2 generated over $400,000 in revenue within roughly three months. When players purchase Dungeon Tickets, 80% of the payment is automatically used to buy back $SURVIVOR tokens on-chain and deposit them into a community-governed treasury. No discretion, no promises, just contracts executing. Another example is Kamigotchi: players send characters to harvest resources, and earnings accumulate over time while the character’s HP steadily drains. Stay or leave, earn or lose: the decision rests entirely with the player and is irreversible.
Bankless’s 2025 onchain gaming year-in-review distilled one observation: fully on-chain design is worth pursuing when it enables mechanics that would otherwise be impossible. In other words, “fully on-chain” itself is not the selling point; “this experience is only possible because it’s fully on-chain” is.
Returning to WarSpore: its gamified OTC mechanism is attempting something in this same design space. Embedding token trading into PVP matches so that wins and losses directly determine token “buying and selling” is a design that tries to create irreversible economic tension through on-chain execution. The direction is sound, but it currently remains at the conceptual level, lacking actual match data to verify whether this tension is strong enough to drive return visits.
5-3. 生态基础设施的差距比技术能力的差距更关键 / The ecosystem infrastructure gap matters more than the technology gap
WarSpore 的开发者一个人从零搭建了游戏合约、前端、DOB decoder、Telegram bot 和社区运营。在 Starknet 生态，同类工作有一套专门的基础设施支撑：Dojo 是开源的全链游戏引擎，处理索引、部署和合约架构；Cartridge 提供会话钱包和 arcade account（通过账户抽象实现的一次性游戏账户，玩家无需每次操作都签名）；Realms 生态内多个游戏共享 $LORDS 代币和互操作资产。Cartridge 在 2025 年完成了 750 万美元融资。Ethereum Foundation 也开始直接支持链上游戏，赞助 Devconnect Gaming District 等活动。
CKB 具备做类似事情的技术条件。Spore 协议提供链上资产表达，CCC 降低钱包连接门槛，CKB-VM 的 RISC-V 架构提供工程灵活性，交易成本低。但 CKB 目前缺少游戏垂类的专用工具链：没有类似 Dojo 的游戏引擎，没有 session wallet 方案，没有跨游戏的共享资产层。WarSpore 的每一项基础工作都需要自己造轮子，这在 solo developer 的 micro-grant 约束下是极大的效率损耗。
2025 年行业数据显示，约 30% 的区块链游戏公司在年内调整了业务方向。存活下来的项目普遍具备两个特征：所在生态有专项支持（资金、工具、社区导流），以及游戏机制本身利用了链上执行的不可替代性。单纯的技术可行性不足以支撑一个链上游戏项目走到产品市场匹配。
WarSpore’s developer built game contracts, the frontend, a DOB decoder, a Telegram bot, and community operations from scratch, alone. In the Starknet ecosystem, comparable work is supported by dedicated infrastructure: Dojo is an open-source fully on-chain game engine handling indexing, deployment, and contract architecture; Cartridge provides session wallets and arcade accounts (disposable game accounts enabled by account abstraction, allowing players to act without signing each transaction); and multiple games within the Realms ecosystem share the $LORDS token and interoperable assets. Cartridge closed a $7.5 million funding round in 2025. The Ethereum Foundation also began directly supporting on-chain games, sponsoring events like the Devconnect Gaming District.
CKB has the technical conditions to do similar things. The Spore Protocol provides on-chain asset expression, CCC lowers wallet connection barriers, CKB-VM’s RISC-V architecture offers engineering flexibility, and transaction costs are low. But CKB currently lacks game-specific tooling: no equivalent to Dojo as a game engine, no session wallet solution, no cross-game shared asset layer. Every piece of foundational work in WarSpore required building from scratch, which is a significant efficiency drain under a solo developer micro-grant constraint.
2025 industry data shows approximately 30% of blockchain gaming companies changed their business direction within the year. Projects that survived generally shared two characteristics: their ecosystem provided dedicated support (funding, tooling, community traffic), and their game mechanics leveraged the irreplaceability of on-chain execution. Technical feasibility alone is not enough to carry an on-chain game project to product-market fit.
5-4. 对 CKB 上未来全链游戏项目的建议 / Recommendations for future fully on-chain game projects on CKB
基于 WarSpore 的一手经验和行业对照，委员会对未来在 CKB 上做全链游戏的项目有以下具体建议：
设计层面，优先找到"只有链上才能玩出来"的核心机制。资产上链只是起点，真正的竞争力在于不可逆的经济决策、可验证的随机性、无需信任的结算等只有链上执行才能保证的玩法元素。WarSpore 的 OTC 机制是一个值得继续探索的方向。
工程层面，如果 CKB 生态要认真发展链上游戏垂类，需要投入的不是更多单个游戏项目的 micro-grant，而是一套可复用的游戏基础设施。Session wallet、游戏状态索引、以及类似 Dojo 的合约框架，这些投入一次即可服务多个项目。
验证层面，在项目启动时就定义清楚：核心循环是什么、用什么指标衡量、怎么采集数据。把"待验证"写成"验证方案"，而不是到结项时才发现数据缺失。
Based on WarSpore’s first-hand experience and industry benchmarks, the committee offers the following concrete recommendations for future fully on-chain game projects on CKB:
On design: prioritize finding a core mechanic that is only possible on-chain. Putting assets on-chain is the starting point, not the competitive advantage. The real edge lies in gameplay elements that require on-chain execution to function: irreversible economic decisions, verifiable randomness, trustless settlement. WarSpore’s OTC mechanism is a direction worth continued exploration.
On infrastructure: if the CKB ecosystem intends to seriously develop on-chain gaming as a vertical, the highest-leverage investment is not more micro-grants for individual games, but a set of reusable game infrastructure. Session wallets, game state indexers, and a contract framework analogous to Dojo are investments that serve multiple projects once built.
On validation: define at project start what the core loop is, which metrics measure it, and how to collect the data. Turn “to be validated” into “a validation plan,” rather than discovering data gaps at closure.
6 总结 / Conclusion
WarSpore · Saga 在星火计划资助周期内完成了承诺的核心交付，并在社区互动阶段表现出稳定的执行力和对反馈的积极响应。委员会对项目的技术交付质量和开发者的合作态度给予认可。
对 Spark 而言，这个项目的更大价值在于它提供了一个观察窗口：CKB 生态做全链游戏，技术上可行，但从可行到可持续，需要的不只是单个项目的努力，还需要生态层面在游戏基础设施和开发者支持上的投入。这个判断将纳入 Spark 2026 年的方向讨论。
WarSpore · Saga completed its committed core deliverables within the Spark funding cycle, demonstrating steady execution and responsive iteration during the community engagement phase. The committee recognizes the quality of technical delivery and the developer’s cooperative approach throughout.
For Spark, this project’s broader value lies in the observation window it provides: building fully on-chain games on CKB is technically feasible, but moving from feasible to sustainable requires more than individual project effort. It requires ecosystem-level investment in gaming infrastructure and developer support. This assessment will be factored into Spark’s 2026 direction discussions.
