Roast — Compute Farming Game

Products & Platforms · Concept

Pre-launch demo of a tick-based farming/macro game — grow coffee beans, build roasters and node towers, and earn compute units through attention mining.

About This Project

Concept game for the Caffinate ecosystem pitched as 'Minecraft farming meets StarCraft macro'. A custom tick-based engine with no game libraries drives resource growth, building placement, and an attention-mining loop that converts play into compute units and $CAFF. One-shot demo built the same day the $CAFF devnet token was minted, to show how the earn-while-you-play side of the platform could feel.
