How does one build Farcaster Frames? What's the mental model? What do you do? Having worked with the top projects on Farcaster here's how! I think about Frames like a Gameboy. Limited buttons, but with creativity the most fun games and customer journeys can be modelled.

Building a frame currently and I’m going with an in-frame menu system with buttons used for up/down and select. Curious to get your thoughts on this UX. Feels very gameboy like to me but with reload times perhaps not the best experience? https://eepvers.xyz/frame

I think Farcaster loses because of the excessive limitation. You can compare it with Telegram bots, for example. 100 buttons vs 4. Well, maybe 100 is too much for Farcaster, but 8 is quite possible. Also annoying is the 5 seconds of response from the server, sometimes it is simply technically impossible to implement and forces the user to perform repeated actions. As an example, I implemented a game from the 90s Filler filler.doe.cx, which works in both Telegram and Farcaster from one script. Because of the 4-button limitation, the number of colors had to be cut, and because of the 5 seconds, the computer in the Farcaster version had to be forcibly made dumber. So who benefited from this?

This is a great analogy! In a way, limitations unlock more creativity because you can only play by those rules For me I think of an action and an outcome. I try to keep it as simple as possible, as adding too many features will make it an app or website

I’ve also wondered on how one can get started in building frame. Any tips will be nice.
