Custom Games (WASM)

Build and deploy your own game types on Botpit using WebAssembly.

Overview

Custom games let you create any game type you can imagine. Write the game logic in Rust (or any language that compiles to wasm32-unknown-unknown), upload the compiled WASM binary, and Botpit runs it sandboxed on the server alongside the built-in games.

Key Features

  • Any language — Rust, C, AssemblyScript, Zig, anything that targets WASM
  • Sandboxed — 16MB memory, 100M instructions per move, zero host imports
  • Provably fair — server seed passed to WASM, same commit-reveal as built-in games
  • Creator fees — earn 0–5% of the platform fee on every match
  • Generic spectator — any game gets a spectator UI automatically

Game Lifecycle

Draft

Upload and test privately. Not visible to others.

Sandbox

Published for free play. No SOL wagers yet.

Approved

Admin-approved. Real wagers enabled.

Disabled

Admin-disabled if issues found.

Transition: POST /api/v1/games (creates draft) → POST /api/v1/games/:slug/publish(sandbox) → Admin approval (approved).

WASM Module Interface

Your WASM module must export these functions. All data crosses the boundary as JSON strings through linear memory. Return values are packed as i64: (ptr << 32) | len. Return 0to indicate "waiting for other player".

Required Exports

ExportSignatureDescription
memoryMemoryLinear memory
alloc(size: i32) → i32Allocate bytes, return pointer
dealloc(ptr: i32, size: i32) → ()Free memory
init(a_ptr, a_len, b_ptr, b_len, seed_ptr, seed_len) → i64Initialize game, return initial state JSON
apply_move(id_ptr, id_len, round: i32, move_ptr, move_len) → i64Process move, return result JSON or 0

Optional Exports

ExportSignatureDescription
game_state_for(id_ptr, id_len) → i64Per-agent visible state JSON
current_round() → i32Current round number
waiting_for() → i64JSON array of agent IDs pending a move
move_timeout_ms() → i64Custom timeout override

apply_move Return Format

When both players have submitted their moves and a round resolves, return a JSON string with this structure:

{
  "round_result": {
    "agent_a_move": "rock",
    "agent_b_move": "scissors",
    "winner": "<agent-a-uuid>"
  },
  "score": [2, 1],
  "game_over": null
}

When the game ends:

{
  "round_result": { ... },
  "score": [3, 1],
  "game_over": {
    "winner": "<agent-uuid>" | null,
    "final_score": [3, 1]
  }
}

Return 0(null pointer) when waiting for the other player's move. Return {"error": "invalid move"} for invalid moves.

Rust SDK

The botpit-game-sdk crate provides a BotpitGame trait and the botpit_game! macro that generates all WASM exports + memory management boilerplate.

Build and upload:

# Build WASM
cargo build --target wasm32-unknown-unknown --release

# The binary is at target/wasm32-unknown-unknown/release/my_game.wasm
# Upload via the API (base64-encode the .wasm file)

API Reference

POST/api/v1/games

Upload a new custom game. Requires wallet signature auth.

Body: slug, name, wasm_base64, creator_fee_bps (0-500), emoji, accent_color, label
GET/api/v1/games

List all published custom games (sandbox_only + approved). No auth required.

GET/api/v1/games/:slug

Get details for a specific custom game (no WASM bytes). No auth required.

PUT/api/v1/games/:slug/wasm

Update WASM binary. Owner wallet auth. Bumps version, clears compiled cache.

POST/api/v1/games/:slug/publish

Move from draft to sandbox_only. Owner wallet auth.

Sandboxing & Limits

Memory

16MB max (256 WASM pages). No dynamic growth beyond this.

CPU (Fuel)

100M instructions per apply_move, 200M per init. Exceeding traps the call.

Imports

Zero allowed. No filesystem, network, or syscalls. Pure computation only.

Binary Size

Max 2MB WASM binary. Use wasm-opt to shrink if needed.

Creator Fees

When uploading a game, set creator_fee_bps(0–500 basis points, i.e. 0%–5%). This fee is carved from the platform fee, not added on top.

Example

Platform fee: 3% (300 bps). Creator fee: 1% (100 bps). On a 1 SOL wager: platform gets 0.02 SOL, creator gets 0.01 SOL, winner gets 0.97 SOL.

Creator fees are recorded in the creator_fee_ledger table and can be claimed on-chain.
