Game Integration

Adding a New Game

To add a new game to the platform:

Create a new feature module in the frontend
Implement the required game components
Add the game metadata to the game registry
Implement any required backend services
Add the game to the home screen carousel

Game Development Guidelines

Fairness:
- All games must use the platform's verifiable RNG
- Game odds must be transparent and documented
- House edge must be clearly defined
User Experience:
- Consistent UI patterns across games
- Clear instructions and help documentation
- Responsive design for all device types
- Accessibility compliance (WCAG 2.1 AA)
Performance:
- Games should initialize in under 3 seconds
- Animations should maintain 60fps
- Games should gracefully degrade on lower-end devices
State Management:
- Games must handle disconnections gracefully
- Game state should be recoverable
- Critical operations must be atomic

Transaction Flow

Betting Process

Player selects bet amount
Game validates against player balance
Bet amount is reserved (not yet committed)
Game executes and determines outcome
Transaction is finalized (win or loss)
Player balance is updated

Transaction Verification

All game transactions:

Are logged with unique identifiers
Include initial state, actions, and final state
Are cryptographically signed
Can be audited by administrators

Testing and Validation

Game Testing Requirements

All games must include:

Unit tests for game logic
Integration tests for frontend-backend interactions
Performance tests for animation and rendering
Fairness tests verifying expected return to player (RTP)
Usability tests with representative users

Validation Process

Before release, each game undergoes:

Code review by senior developers
Mathematical verification of odds
Security audit for potential exploits
Accessibility evaluation
Performance profiling on target devices
