Browser Game Uses Zero-Knowledge Proofs to Verify On-Chain Scores

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

Dario Dash, an endless runner built on Dusk, generates Groth16 proofs in the browser to prove a valid game run occurred before submitting scores to a smart contract. The proof covers deterministic game logic including movement, collisions, and scoring, binding the run to the submitter's account. Proof generation takes 10-60 seconds and requires a 200 MB proving key download, highlighting current trade-offs in browser-based ZK proving.

Meridian48 take
The approach is clever but the heavy proving key and generation time underscore how far browser ZK is from being practical for mainstream gaming.
