Why Kart Rumble Chose a Hybrid Approach

Kart Rumble’s hybrid model combines the best of both worlds. Gameplay logic, AI behavior, and visual rendering are kept off-chain to preserve speed, immersion, and real-time control. Meanwhile, all core economic functions and competitive integrity systems are executed on-chain, ensuring ownership, fairness, and transparency.

✅ What Lives Off-Chain:

  • Rumble AI’s real-time racing decisions and adaptations

  • Physics calculations and racing engine logic

  • Multiplayer matchmaking and networking

  • Game visuals, rendering, and animations

✅ What Lives On-Chain (Polygon, later Polygon Supernet):

  • NFT ownership of karts, characters, and power-ups

  • Race results and tournament standings (verifiable for leaderboards and rewards)

  • Player progression and stat tracking

  • Token transactions (entry fees, upgrades, staking)

  • Wagering, prize pools, and affiliate commissions


Benefits of the Hybrid Model for Kart Rumble

  • Scalability: Players can enjoy seamless gameplay without lag or gas fees.

  • Transparency: Critical data like race results and RBT rewards are verifiable on-chain.

  • Security: Smart contracts manage token distribution and rewards fairly.

  • Player Ownership: NFTs and tokens are fully user-controlled, tradable, and interoperable.

  • AI Integration: Off-chain AI logic remains fast, but its outcomes and influence are tracked and auditable.
