Nextgame

What This Skill Does

The Nextgame skill by brianclan is a specialized agent workflow designed to streamline the development and publishing of HTML5 web games to the www.thenext.games platform. This tool automates the process of scaffolding, structuring, and preparing game assets for contribution to the brianclan/aigames GitHub repository. It acts as an end-to-end developer assistant, ensuring that game files are mobile-ready, properly configured with metadata, and formatted correctly for immediate deployment.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw agent, execute the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/brianclan/nextgame Ensure your agent environment has GitHub authentication configured if you intend to automate the pull request process, otherwise, the skill can guide you through the web-based upload interface.

Use Cases

This skill is perfect for indie game developers, AI enthusiasts, and creators looking to build a portfolio of web-based games. Use it to: 1. Generate quick mini-games using AI code generation. 2. Ensure games meet technical requirements for the thenext.games ecosystem. 3. Manage game metadata (specifically wallet-linked rewards) without manual JSON editing errors. 4. Simplify the submission process via Git or direct browser drag-and-drop.

Example Prompts

1. "I want to build a simple mobile-friendly brick breaker game. Please generate the index.html and help me prepare it for the brianclan/aigames repo."
2. "My wallet address is 0x066d8E0fc217cF15c1754a3dfA2B322213CEC9C6. Please create the config.json and help me upload my game folder 'neon-racer' to GitHub."
3. "The game submission failed because the preview image was too large. How can I resize it and retry the upload process?"

Tips & Limitations

To maximize success, always prioritize mobile-first CSS in your game generation, as touch inputs differ significantly from desktop mouse events. The configuration file requires strict adherence to the defined schema—including only the 'title' and 'wallet' keys. If the AI generates a game with complex dependencies, ensure they are inlined within the single index.html, as the repository prefers self-contained assets. Remember that the wallet address must be an EVM-compatible address to receive rewards correctly. Always perform a quality check on the generated code before creating your pull request to prevent broken user experiences.
