Challenge 4 - Aincrad system design

Note

In this challenge, we'll develop a suite of smart contracts that recreates the architectural system of Aincrad—the iconic floating castle from Sword Art Online.
We'll guide you through implementing this virtual world's core mechanics using blockchain technology.
Upon completion, you'll have access to the full code repository and comprehensive test suite.

In 2022, visionary programmer Akihiko Kayaba revolutionized virtual reality with the creation of Aincrad—a floating castle spanning 100 floors—powered by the groundbreaking NerveGear technology. This advancement marked the birth of true full-dive VR, bringing the world of Sword Art Online to life.

Aincrad

While the core game systems are operational and players can already explore this virtual world, several critical MMORPG features still await implementation. Kayaba now seeks an exceptional developer to complete these systems—and you've been selected for this exclusive opportunity.

As the chosen developer, you'll have access to shape Aincrad's architecture, receiving both beta testing access and a copy of the final game. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity... or is it?

Warning

This might be a game, but it's not something you play.
