Hi guys, this I am sure is something for you

Basically our company, Nonoba.com, just announced that we will be releasing an easy to use, fully hosted and free Multiplayer API for flash developers. This should allow pretty much anybody with rudimentary flash skills to create and host multiplayer games.

The idea for this came about as we have been working making realtime multiplayer flash games on our own technology for ages, and quite a lot of developers and companies have approached us to gain access or license the technology. This made us believe that there is a huge demand for something like this so we decided to wrap it up into an easy to use API and release it as a free service.

With that said, we realized that this is just one of the things that flash developers want do do, but find hard to do. Hence this is just the first large scale API, trying to solve a common flash developer problem, that we will be releasing.

To show what can be built on top of this technology we have released a new game called Nonoba Racer and ported some of our old creations to act as examples in the SDK the developers will have to download. This includes Fridge Magnets, Multiplayer Asteroids and DrawPad.

Related to this we also just announced our first competitions for game developers with $20.000 USD in prices and a first price of $15.000 USD.

If you want to get you hands on a copy of the API before everybody else there is a beta signup site here:
