CLIENT

MULTIPLE PLATFORM SUPPORT Greatly simplifies launching applications on all supported platforms (mobile, pc, social networks, console, web). This reduces the time and cost of reaching the large number of users. Launch your application as soon as possible to the maximum number of users and start receiving great revenue in the first month after.

CROSS-PLATFORM Whether it's HTML5, Flash or one of the other platforms, you can build the client for it and connect to the server.

ANALYTICS Gaming application features are integrated to collect statistics and track user behavior in the game. With this feature the developer can make the detailed analysis of user behavior. No player can escape your all-seeing eye!

TUNNELING Allows you to circumvent bans on games set up by providers or network administrators so you do not miss a single customer or request.

SERVER

SCALING The technology is built to be scalable from the ground up. You can deploy multiple slave nodes each handling thousands of users. Each slave node is connected to the central master node that acts as a caching layer on top of the database.	GENERIC DATA BLOCKS All data can be automatically loaded, modified, cached while in use and stored in database through the useful abstraction layer freeing you from implementation hassle.	MODULAR STRUCTURE Put all your code into separate modules and use the abundance of available core modules.
LIBRARY Server timers, real-time internal statistics, external statistics and more handy tools and snippets available in the library integrated with the server core.	SCRIPT-BASED TESTING Want to test the server implementation while the client part is not done yet? Use the script-based tool that behaves just like a client.	PROFILER Integrated profiling with access and control available from the editor. Study the data for per-server CPU usage, network traffic and database requests.
PERFORMANCE TESTING External performance testing tool measuring server throughput.	ACCESS TO THE SOURCES If you need something special, there is a license with access to the source text.	100% UPTIME DURING UPDATES Our servers are not down during updates, the game remains accessible and the code migrates in real time.
	PLAYER ACTIONS The tool that allows you to implement different logic very quickly and easily. Documentation.

EDITOR

Web-based editor with access to all core modules and capability to extend the core functionality. Create and edit all ingame entities with server automatically reloading static data on each action. You can even edit something that is currently in the server if you need to.

MODULES

Extensive library of builtin modules with common useful functionality including the following:

Calendar Events Calendar-based server events that automatically start and finish by date and time specified. You can limit the events by user language and user platform. You can also create events consisting of multiple stages with different functionality in each stage.	Game Variables Server variables that are stored in database, loaded on server start and can be changed on the running server through the editor.	Items, Bundles and User Inventory Ingame items with attributes, bundles of items that can be bought, put into user inventory, used, worn or whatever else you can think about. Edit items in the editor and test the changes immediately.
Localization Support Full localization support for static game data. Use the editor to export the CSV file with strings to localize and import it back with localization provided.	Quests Create chains of quests with various requirements, store local quest variables defining what the user needs to do to complete the quest and give out rewards. Every part is completely extendable to suit the needs of your project.	Shop Put ingame items in the shop and allow users to buy and sell them. Set the item amount for limited items and let the server handle it.
Users The largest of the modules, includes support for user registration and login and links to all the other modules that rely on users.	Badges Give out badges (also called achievements) to users upon completion of difficult tasks. The badge progress is stored as special quests, no need to implement it in the server code.	Effects Buffs, debuffs, curses, any other timed ingame effects that can be applied to user belong here. Create the effects in the editor and bind them to item usage, quest rewards or anything else.
Segmentation & Analytics Integrated server-side analytics. All critical data with maximum accuracy.	Clans The module allows to quickly implement ingame clans.	Leaderboards Ready-made leaderboard charts. Allows players to compete with each other.
Rooms Flexible room system allows you to combine players in game sessions with server logic.	Matchmaking System that allows you to match up players.	Game balance and math tables Special structures and tools for math tables. Simplify game balance iteration with server-side logic.
Asset manager Game asset management on the server (images, bundles, metadata, etc.).	Chat rooms Real-time communication between players.	Notifications User notification system by various triggers.
	Scripts Script language with the ability to program server-side game logic. Scripts can be compiled into native (C++) if needed.
