maybe some of you folks are gamers, but i'm in love with Beyond All Reason, OS RTS game. huge unit roster and known for truly epic battles

i hooked up the game engine and AI players to 4 live price feeds, aggregated from various CEX/DEXs

• S&P500/USD
• GOLD/USD
• BTC/USD (inb4 bitcoin isn't crypto; stfu)

• ETH/USD

  resource generation for each player is based on actual order volume of buys and sells

the result is a tug of war battle field based on real market data

made a lil' site to wrap it around to boot (streaming from my YT channel)

tbh i'm not getting much work done these days cause i'm having a blast watching the battles play out on my 2nd monitor

what do you guys think? what should i add or change to make it more fun?
