idtoufik Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Hi, Is it possible to create a realtime multiplayer facebook instant game ? all the facebook instant games that I encountered were turn based. If yes what will I need, is it necessary to have a back-end on a remote server for that. I'm new to web game engines, I used to work with Unity, what is the most suitable game engine for creating such a game ? I currently want to use Babylon Js. Thank you in advance.

Same as snake mania Thank you for the good examples, I think that these games use their own back-end for multiplayer support, can anyone confirm ? Is there any native Facebook support for multiplayer games between at least 2 Facebook friends? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
