Cavoke is a platform for creating and hosting multiplayer turn-based board games.

We believe that developing a desktop multiplayer game is always a great adventure that has many wonderful opportunities to learn something new along the way. However, in our opinion this journey, is often riddled with unnecessary challenges of implementing mechanisms that are common for many games. This includes:

Developing a client application with many UI components for game creation process
Networking, which in itself includes
- Synchronizing the game state among clients
- Handling network issues on client's side
- SSL and Security
Game state persistence
Game move validation
Role choosing (e.g. White/Black in Chess)
Managing game sessions and shareable invites for friends to play with you
Game and User statistics (win rate, total time spent, etc.)
User Authentication and Authorization
Game versioning
Hosting server logic and scalability

To make these obstacles easier to avoid, we developed a framework for developing multiplayer turn-based board games that comes with built-in solutions to solve all the above-mentioned problems.
