 this is a fantastic idea, but the main issue is relays are not act as fast as possible to be backend for all kind of games. even i believe they are lazy at broadcasting everything to everyone correctly and properly. or maybe the second one it clients fault. idk.

if we consider we can fix the second issue, we can only use it for games such as chess.

i love to play chess based on nostr. ♟️😶‍🌫️

 yes i wasn't thinking about FPS games here, more like, BBS doorgames kind of things? poker, or turn-based strategy, or board games like chess (though i vaguely remember that chess over nostr has been done)

did you see fiatjaf's ASCII stream, if you can do that you could also stream rogue or nethack, lol

mostly this was just a cursed idea i had to post to get it out of my head
i may still do it just for lolz

 yes, that's it. correct, we already have the chess thing event with a standard pgn events but the available clients for chess over nostr are not working well.

about the video you mention, i can't load it at all. 🤨
