The choice is really up to you and the needs of your app. 

For me, I use gamespark because I only have to write one set of code for iOS and Android, allows users in different platforms to play against each other, isn’t tied to corona or lua and it is cheap. But there are many other options in the marketplace.

Hello Sir @agramonte,

Thank you for your input Sir, the above opinion will definitely help our team to make final decision. As we are entering in this Multiplayer field as a newbie and looking cost as a factor and GameSpark’s " indie+student developer program " we would mostly use GameSparks as a BaaS , would you like to guide us on how to proceed with GameSparks.

Your experience in this Multiplayer field would really help us to learn things faster. Thank you for giving some amount of your precious time to reading this post.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
