How can do this? I'm just a game developer, do not have knowledge how to run a daemon node and issue RPC commands, is there an easy way I can learn this? Lead me in the right direction, youtube videos maybe? :)

You know how to run a wallet, so you ought to know how to run bitcoind?

This is all the RPC commands which bitcoind supports: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Original_Bitcoin_client/API_calls_list

Then you'll need to use something like https://github.com/BitKoot/BitcoinRpcSharp to communicate with bitcoind, or if you don't use C# just google for bitcoin RPC library in your language of choice.

Hope that helps!

Thanks yep, that helps a lot!!!

By the way, it looks like the Bitcoin Pot Address for the game has stopped paying out, have a look: https://blockchain.info/address/17ZgzoQUAiCrCgSieYfGhAvToW9kn6uaLt

Since you'll already have a central server, you can run a daemon node for the currency in question and issue RPC commands to send coins to your users, which you'll store in your own database.

In all cases, you'll need every game validated on a central server of some kind to make sure no-one can cheat by hacking the client.

So, on Bitcoin Reddit the top story is about a iOS game called SaruTobi that rewards players in Bitcoin:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2rqlj6/apple_approves_ios_game_that_tips_players_in/

I've download the game and already made over 63 cents, check it out: https://blockchain.info/address/17jVL3LR9UG2QVU9H2FDsuQ9JwuwTcrHLe

I'm a Game Developer myself and currently preparing to launch an iOS game in a week or so, and would like to do the same thing, offer rewards/payouts in Bitcoin as well as in other currencies like maybe BitGold :)

Anyone know how to do automatic game payouts like this guy did, what code he used? You can download the game here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id932194840?mt=8
