Overview
Ronke No Read is a browser-based arcade survival shooter where players control their ship using hand gestures via webcam. Built for the Ronkeverse ecosystem, the game features wave-based enemies with boss encounters every 5 waves, 12+ weapon upgrades, a combo system, and a tournament mode with RONKE token entry fees — 80% goes to the prize pool and 20% is permanently burned. The core philosophy: no web3 integration until the web2 experience is fun.
