Hi,
Does anyone have any experience with creating an asynchronous multi-player game with Corona (something like Words with Friends or Carcassonne)?
What tech did you end up using? PubNub? SmartFoxServer? Something built in house?
I’d be interested in evaluating the pros and cons to see if Corona would be a good fit for this project.
Thanks,

I believe you could make it yourself, all you need is a dedicated server and knowledge of a server-side scripting language such as PHP. Although I will point out that dedicated servers are costly to run/buy.

Hi,
Yes, it is possible to make such a game with Corona. As for using PubNub, I’m not sure as I do not have experience with it.
But you can use the traditional LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) stack to handle the backend data.
SmartFoxServer seems ideal for real-time interactions. For asynchronous play, I think LAMP will work fine. [import]uid: 12700 topic_id: 15539 reply_id: 57444[/import]
