I have a possible paid development opportunity if AGK2 supports Steam matchmaking.

Can I bump this?

I guess I just did...

If anyone knows if the multiplayer capabilities of AGK2 support Steam matchmaking?

No. For starters, to interface with Steam's matchmaking/multiplayer API, the app in question would first need to be approved through Steam's Greenlight service, which is a very difficult endeavor.

However, assuming your AppGameKit product beats the overwhelming odds and actually gets accepted onto the Steam platform, you could use Tier 2 (C++) development in AppGameKit to tie in the required Steam API components--however difficult this is I do not know since I haven't reviewed the Steam framework.
