cross-platform multiplayer gaming service, Neutron, is now compatible
with the iPhone. This new compatibility update allows game developers
to integrate online multiplayer and social gaming features into
iPhone games by using Neutron technology, as well as cross-platform
capabilities between an iPhone and other mobile devices, PCs and game
consoles.
Features of the Neutron multiplayer and social gaming platform
include, among others: real-time, turn-based and tournament
multiplayer options; game lobbies and various matchmaking
capabilities; buddy lists, leaderboards, profiles, etc.; in-game
voice and text chat; and billing and in-game microtransactions
“The iPhone presents a very unique opportunity for mobile online
gaming as it is both specifically designed for online services and
comes with the App Store, an already successful and accessible
distribution channel”, says Christof Wegmann, CTO of Exit Games.
“Neutron’s support of this new and innovative mobile device will
ensure that iPhone game developers have a means to take advantage of
its wireless connectivity and add social gaming features.”
