Popular blockchain-based social game Pixels has announced “Login With Pixels,” a new feature designed to let blockchain developers integrate reputation-based login into their dApps.
This tool provides developers with access to Pixels’ reputation system, allowing them to identify and reward quality users based on their engagement and commitment across the Pixels ecosystem.
By bringing this trusted user identification system to other dApps, Pixels is setting a new standard for digital identity in the web3 world, paving the way for communities built around reputation and trust.

Pixels developed Login With Pixels in response to the growing need for more reliable user identification across web3 applications at large.
With data science advancements and insights from two years of gameplay data, Pixels refined its user identification and reputation scoring systems to better filter out inactive accounts and sustain an engaged player base.
This new login feature is a natural progression of these efforts, designed to help developers across the blockchain space recognize and reward committed players.

According to the announcement on X, Login With Pixels is a “widget” that developers can add into their dApps, allowing users to log in using their Pixels account. With their permission, developers can access each user’s Pixels reputation score, calculated based on three primary criteria:
- In-Game Actions: Tracking user engagement, achievements, and activity within Pixels games.
- On-Chain Holdings: Reflecting users’ financial commitment to the Pixels ecosystem.
- On-Chain Actions: Gauging overall blockchain activity, including transaction history and interactions with other web3 projects.
This reputation score provides a clear way for developers to gate content, offer rewards, and create unique experiences for dedicated users, fostering a trusted and engaged community.
What are the benefits to having this feature?
Login With Pixels offers distinct advantages for developers by providing access to Pixels’ comprehensive user reputation data. Through this tool, developers can:
- Reward Committed Users: Offer perks like exclusive airdrops, VIP content, and other incentives to engaged users, boosting loyalty.
- Gate Content: Easily restrict certain features or content to high-reputation users, ensuring access only for verified players.
- Access Reliable Data: With explicit user consent, developers gain access to reliable, actionable data on user engagement, helping them build trusted communities.
For Pixels users, this feature allows their reputation to carry weight across the ecosystem, letting them access various games and dApps that recognize and value their dedication.
This feature is now live and interested developers are encouraged to reach out to Pixels’ Founder Luke Barwikowski for early access.
