Urban Odyssey

Urban Odyssey: This immersive, collaborative play-to-earn game invites players to step into the roles of two visionary factions: the EcoGuardians, champions of green technology and sustainable urban development, and the TechnoMads, pioneers of advanced digital infrastructure and smart city solutions. By harnessing the power of real-world metadata, players will transform their cities into thriving ecosystems or cutting-edge technological hubs.

As an EcoGuardian, your mission is to weave nature back into the urban fabric, creating lush, green spaces where technology serves the environment. You'll earn Energy by registering and verifying GreenLocations. Use this Energy to promote sustainable growth, increase rewards for your faction, and protect your city's natural beauty.

As a TechnoMad, your goal is to digitize and enhance urban life with the latest in technology. Chips are your currency, earned by identifying and claiming landmarks, universities, and tech hubs. These Chips empower you to upgrade infrastructure, boost rewards for fellow TechnoMads, and mark territories with advanced digital networks.

Urban Odyssey is more than a game; it's a platform for collaboration and competition. While EcoGuardians and TechnoMads have distinct objectives, the game encourages alliances to unlock special rewards and achievements. Collaborate to maximize the benefits for all players in a city, strategizing together to ensure the growth and prosperity of your urban environment. Players will engage in a dynamic world where every action has a real impact. Registering and verifying real-world places as NFTs not only rewards you with in-game benefits but also contributes to a collective effort to reimagine and reshape our urban spaces. Whether you're planting the seeds for a green future or laying the groundwork for a connected world, your contributions will define the character and destiny of your hometown.

This project is built on top of Scroll. It uses Proof of email using ZK email for user Twitter identity verification and verifying the location on-chain using zero-knowledge proofs.

The app is built on top of Scaffold Eth.

User Interface (UI): A responsive design that works on mobile and desktop platforms, offering a seamless user experience. The UI should include maps for location verification, a dashboard for tracking player progress and rewards, and a marketplace for trading NFTs. Client-Side Logic: Handles user interactions, data visualization, and client-side validations. API Layer: RESTful APIs that facilitate communication between the frontend application, the blockchain network, and the database. This layer handles user management, location data processing, game logic, and NFT transactions.

Location Verification System: Utilizes GPS data and possibly third-party APIs to verify the authenticity of player-submitted locations. Implements anti-fraud measures to prevent spoofing and ensure fairness. NFT Management: Handles the creation, storage, and transfer of NFTs representing verified locations. Interacts with a blockchain network for NFT minting and transactions.

Third-Party Services Mapping API: Integrates with services like Google Maps or OpenStreetMap for displaying real-world locations and facilitating location verification.
