I'm optimistic for new researchers that have this affinity and love for security I'm quite sure that they're going to make it
Nice work getting a game out. Shipping matters more than perfecting. If you're planning to add rewards, think about abuse early. Bots and fake scores will show up fast once there's something to win. Use simple checks first. Rate limits. Server-side score validation. Small test groups help you catch issues before they spread. Focus on fairness before growth. Keep Building 🙌.
Audit costs are high because you're competing for talent. If you want to pay less for audits because you have an AI agent that did 80% of the work anyways. Then that talent is simply going to work on something else, while you're stuck with partially secured codebase.
AI helps, but it’s not enough. It catches known patterns, not context-specific logic flaws. Reentrancy is basic. The harder bugs involve subtle state issues, economic design, or broken assumptions between contracts. You still need human review. For cost: • Run Slither and Echidna yourself • Post your code to forums where trusted devs hang out • Offer bounties for informal reviews • Use audit contests if your budget is tight AI is a tool. Audits are judgment. You need both.
