One of the earliest earn-while-playing shooters (2021): a Bitcoin battle royale paying Lightning-network satoshis per kill. Migrated its NFT economy from Liquid (a Bitcoin sidechain) to Solana as 'Light Nite X' in March 2022, with the Legacy Bitcoin build promised continued maintenance; never shipped on Steam.
