# Building with Open Game Protocol

OGP is a protocol that lets you add token rewards to any game and reach millions of players - without going through an app store or losing 30% of your revenue. Players can earn real tokens by playing your game, and you earn as they play. Integration takes minutes, and you keep 100% of what you make.

### The Problem

As a game dev today, your options suck:

* Submit to app stores → lose 30% on every transaction
* Pay for your own marketing → no guarantee of players
* Hard to reach real users without burning budget
* Platform takes the upside - not you

### What OGP Gives You

OGP flips the model:

* **Free distribution** to millions of users
* **0% protocol cut** - you keep everything you earn
* **Plug-and-play API** to integrate token rewards in a short time
* **Community-powered launches** - players stake to support games
* **Earn gamecoins (Tokens)** tied to real tokens (ex. $GGIGA for $GIGA)

### Why It Works

* Players are already here, earning tokens by playing
* Games are ranked and surfaced by player votes
* Gamecoins = onchain rewards tied to actual ecosystems
* Devs earn based on how much people play
* No corp gatekeeping, no 30% cartel rejections, no BS

### What You Can Do

* Submit any game - even small AI-built ones or MVPs
* Instantly tap into communities like $GIGA, $FARTCOIN, and more
* Earn by building. Grow by default. Own your upside.

### Get Started

**1. Build your game**

**2. Integrate OGP (Quick API)**

**3. Submit to launch**

**4. Earn daily while your game gets played - at scale**

### Quick AI Game Integration

Building a game with AI? Here's the fastest path to OGP integration:

**Step 1: Build your JavaScript game**

Use any AI tool (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc.) to build your HTML/JavaScript game.

**Step 2: Prompt the AI to integrate OGP**

Once your game is working, add the [OpenGameSDK Implementation Guide](https://docs.opengameprotocol.com/integrations/ai-integration-guide) to your project and give your AI assistant this prompt:

> Read the [OpenGameSDK Implementation Guide](https://docs.opengameprotocol.com/integrations/ai-integration-guide) and integrate the Open Game SDK into my game. Save points when \[describe when points should be saved - e.g., "the player dies", "a level is completed", "the game ends"].

The agent should:

* Add the SDK script and API key meta tag
* Initialize the SDK with the points widget
* Call `addPoints()` during gameplay
* Call `savePoints()` at the right moment

That's it! The SDK handles authentication automatically when saving points.
