Welcome to Flownaut! This level walks you through the very basics of how to play the game.

Set up a Wallet

You will need to log in at the top right of this website in order to play the game. You can use any of the available wallets. Make sure you are on the testnet network.

Open the browser’s console

Open your browser’s console: Right click your screen > Inspect > Console.

You should see a few messages from the game. While you are playing, you should see the following data:

  1. Player Address - this is your wallet’s address
  2. Contract Address - the address of the contract you deploy, and are interacting with
  3. Player Balance - the player’s flow token balance

Any errors or messages from the game will also appear here.

Get test $FLOW

To play the game, you will need test $FLOW. The easiest way to get some testnet $FLOW is via the testnet faucet.

Starting a level

To start a new level, click the “Start Level” button at the top of the page (or the “Click here to log in” button if you haven’t logged in yet).

When you do, a new contract (the one shown at the bottom of each level) will be deployed to a random testnet account. That testnet account’s address will appear in your console as Contract Address. That is the contract you’ll be interacting with.

You can always restart a level by clicking “Start Level” again.

Interact with the contract to complete the level

To complete a level, you will have to interact with your contract on testnet. You can do your own way, or use the tool at the bottom of each level to run transactions & scripts.

When you know you have completed the level, click the “Submit” button at the bottom of the page. This uses a script to determine if you have completed it.

Completing this level

For this level, all you have to do is change the greeting to You have been hacked!.

   pub fun changeGreeting(newGreeting: String) {
      self.greeting = newGreeting
   }

   init() {

   }
}
