I starting a game app(Turn based chess feel so it's not fast paced) that will needs multiplayer functionality. The game will use online game play, game invites, login (possibility facebook), matchmaking and a rating system. I have been through a few of the tutorials but I'm not sure if AppGameKit V2 has all these capabilities?

If so are there tutorials?

How much of these capabilities are built in vs. me creating the functionality?

are you using T1 or T2?

If T1 then you are stuck with the AppGameKit multiplayer commands and have to use those

if T2 you can use an external multiplayer lib.
I have been researching for one as I want to explore multiplayer online gaming

It's more than possible to write an online turn based multiplayer system with AppGameKit using PHP scripts and a MySQL database.

I will be using T2. Since I'm using T2 does that mean I can use any external multiplayer lib? Does that go for any other frameworks?

I'm not that familiar with PHP and MySQL database, guess i have to do some studying.

This game by Naphier is turn-based multiplayer.

Online scores, push notifications, game invites etc etc.
I believe it is made with a modified Tier 1 player.

Thanks I will look into Rakent. As for wordspionage I see I it has all the online capabilities i was looking for. So I guess AppGameKit can do it all with a little bit of help.
