About

Lattice is an engineering and product focused company pushing the envelope of Ethereum applications and infrastructure. We are building MUD, an open-source operating system for developing autonomous worlds and other ambitious onchain applications. You can learn more about our history here.

Last year, we launched OPCraft, a fully-onchain procedurally-generated voxel game that attracted over 1,500 unique players who submitted 3.5 million transactions over the course of ten days. OPCraft was built by Lattice in just 1.5 months using MUD v1, an early version of our operating system. You can learn more about OPCraft here, here, and here.

Our developers are now working on MUD v2, which will afford developers more flexibility in how they read from and write to the blockchain. In addition to MUD v2, our developers are developing Sky Strife, an onchain RTS game, and other infrastructure-level products related to MUD.

HISTORY
Prehistory
spring 2021

In 2020 and 2021, Ethereum and the applications built on top of it were growing increasingly sophisticated, but there were major gaps in both developer tooling and the kinds of projects that were being deployed. DeFi was growing, NFTs were in their nascency, but there were few applications that were forums for play, emergent behavior, or the kind of complexity that could one day give rise to autonomous worlds. Ethereum was becoming the world’s financial computer, but was it becoming the world computer?

Signs of life
summer - winter 2021

In the Summer of 2021, Ludens wanted to make a new game. He was joined by Alvarius, and the two got to work on zkDungeon, an onchain game that was a cross between a board game and a battle royale. After months of tireless iteration, the team had a working demo running.

The breakthrough
spring - summer 2022

Ludens and Alvarius, with the help of other collaborators, realized that they needed to build an operating system before they could launch a game. They needed a framework and a protocol to handle the inevitable complexity of game code, and to counteract the developer-unfriendly patterns inherent in the way smart contracts are traditionally written. After exploring numerous frameworks for game development, the team discovered the ECS (Entity, Component, System) pattern, which became the foundation on which MUD v1, the team’s game engine, was formed.
