A real-time, fully on-chain multiplayer io-style game on Solana powered by MagicBlock.
On-chain robot-fighting game engine on Solana with bytecode-scripted actions, conditions, and spawns run via Anchor programs and ephemeral rollups
Ambitious on-chain robot combat VM with MagicBlock DNA, but zero polish, zero traction.
Dimensions
RobotMasters is a Solana on-chain robot-fighting engine built on a custom bytecode VM, shipped as two parallel Anchor programs, one storing full state on-chain, the other using Bolt ECS plus MagicBlock ephemeral rollups for delegated state . That MagicBlock approach is the exact stack used by Radar's 1st-place Gaming winner Supersize (0.076) and Breakout's 4th-place Block Stranding (0.081) , giving genuine winner-DNA overlap (winnerSimilarity 78) despite no confirmed win of its own. The niche is crowded, 146 topical neighbors and live rivals like Air-Combat On-Chain and Deep Dungeon Duel already ship comparable on-chain combat loops . Execution lags the ambition: no CI, one thin test file, boilerplate Vite READMEs in the frontend sub-apps, and two unfinished/duplicate Anchor programs point to an abandoned migration (techQuality 58, the weakest strong dimension after momentum). Momentum is also thin: 138 commits from a single contributor over three months with zero stars . The bytecode-scripted mechanic is a real differentiator, but this reads as a promising prototype rather than an arena-ready submission. Next move: finish the robotmasters/ migration, add real coverage to the MagicBlock path, and ship a deployed build to convert the strong technical concept into proof.

Winner DNA
MagicBlock ephemeral rollups for real-time on-chain state: present
robotmasters/ uses Bolt ECS and MagicBlock delegated state, matching Supersize and Block Stranding's winning architecture
Anchor + Rust on-chain program: present
Two Anchor programs present (anchor/, robotmasters/), aligning with the 20.3% anchor / 36.1% rust share among winners
React-based frontend: present
isekai (React/Vite) and rmapp (Pixi.js/wasm) match the 36.1% React share in the winners cohort
Proven team activity or external validation: missing
Single contributor, 0 stars, no forks or adoption signal versus multi-contributor winning teams
Test coverage and CI discipline: missing
No CI workflows and only one substantive test file for the simpler anchor/ program
Coherent, singular on-chain architecture: missing
Two parallel/duplicate Anchor programs suggest an unfinished migration rather than one committed design
