Can I make a Multiplayer Online Trading Card Game with Gideros Studio?

Bigmacbook

I'm hoping Gideros Studio can provide me with the functionality I need to create a Multiplayer Online Trading Card Game. The important things I need it to be able to do are:

- Connect to a server and stay connected. (any server for that matter. for account/card data and battle data)
- Turn Base Logic (of course)
- Tiled RPG Gameplay

Can anyone confirm that Gideros Studio can do all of this?

I think you may need LuaSocket to do what you require. A discussion on LuaAocket can be found here. This is something I also have an interest in so hope something can be resolved in the near future.

Thanks for your help. Had a look at the roadmap looks like they are trying to implement LuaSocket for next release. This is amazing

Since you asked for it (@scouser @bigmacbook @louis @dale @stoffe @acesquared @michal @jebel @mumuja @sparkart):

LuaSocket support has been implemented on SVN (our internal versioning system) for iOS. Android, Mac OS X and Windows implementations will follow. Support for all 4 platforms will be ready in the next release (2012.2.2.1), due 1-2 weeks.

Normally this release is not planed. It was added later only to fix a nasty Android bug reported in the forum. However 5-6 easy feature requests have been added and it somehow became another "ordinary" release.

Happy coding

@gorkem thanks! Great news!
