Loot Survivor is a web-based onchain arcade game where players spend tokens on a run, face increasingly difficult levels and pursue a high score. Runs include beast and obstacle encounters, with adventurer upgrades and equipment affecting progression. Its repository identifies a Next.js client and Cairo 1.0 contracts designed for Starknet.

Practical overview

When it fits

Use the game when you want an onchain arcade experience built around runs, encounters and progressive difficulty; consult the repository when investigating its implementation.

Who it is for

  • Players interested in arcade-style onchain games with repeatable, increasingly difficult runs.
  • Developers examining a Cairo-based game repository and its Starknet-oriented implementation.

Documented uses

  • Play an onchain arcade run and try to improve a high score.
  • Explore how level-ups, adventurer attributes, weapons and armour matchups shape the game.
  • Review the project's client, indexing, GraphQL and contract technology.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

  • The README describes adding tokens as part of playing, but does not specify current token requirements or costs.
  • The repository names Starknet as the intended environment; it does not document other supported networks.
  • The documented stack separates a Next.js client, Apibara indexer, Strawberry/AIOHTTP GraphQL components and Cairo 1.0 contracts.
  • The repository's Goerli infrastructure notes are environment-specific references and do not establish present-day gameplay availability.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Deploy the contract and start a game

Follow the README’s Starkli setup, contract deployment, and onchain game-start steps.

Before you start

  • The repository scripts, including scripts/starkli_setup.sh and scripts/deploy.sh.sh.
  • Starkli account details and environment variables referenced by the README, including $STARKNET_ACCOUNT, $PRIVATE_KEY, $LORDS_ADDRESS, and $CONTRACT_ADDRESS.

Steps

  1. Run the command below to set up a Starkli account.

    Documented command
    bash scripts/starkli_setup.sh

  2. Run the command below to deploy the contract.

    Documented command
    bash scripts/deploy.sh.sh

  3. Source /workspaces/loot-survivor/.env.

  4. Use the README’s Starkli invoke commands to mint $lords, approve LS to spend, and call new_game on the contract.

Expected outcome

The documented sequence sets up an account, deploys a contract, and submits a new-game call after minting and approving tokens.

Guide limitations

  • The README does not explain how to obtain or configure the referenced environment variables or confirm deployment and transaction results.
  • The example commands use specific addresses and arguments; the README does not describe how to adapt them for other networks or deployments.
