The platform offers a cloud-based game creation framework that allows developers to build games once and have them play across all smartphone operating systems, with a native app-like experience and fast performance. The games run as a hybrid HTML5 – native app, and the code for the game is written once, in a simple scripting language, so that they can then run on any device. In addition, developers can create native iOS apps using Spaceport. The technology also provides a framework for building multi-platform social games, allowing developers to log in and play as their same character, with the same social context across Facebook, iPhone, iPad, and the Web, making it easy to transition to mobile.
