Come2Play is announcing the launch of a new website that allows for free, networked, multi-player, gaming channels. The beta site, come2play.com, allows websites to embed a free Come2play’s channel into their site, full of a variety of casual games.
The channel allows for global game play through its network. This means that anyone who plays their games on any website will be networked to anyone else playing the same game on other websites across the world.
Come2Play also announced the creation of an API that allows flash game makers to integrate the API’s networked multiplayer gaming features into their games. The API is in closed alpha at this time.
To sign up for Beta site testing, you can register at their website.
PRESS RELEASE
Come2Play Launches Networked Multi-Player Game Channels for Every site Now in Closed Beta
Come2Play is a new startup company specializing in networked multi-player gaming
and social gaming networks.
With the launch of their new website, Come2Play's free networked multi-player gaming
channels, ready to embed into any sized web site, are now available in closed Beta.
To sign up as a closed Beta site tester, please register on come2play.com .
Unlike traditional multi-player game channels, Come2Play's channels can connect to
Come2Play's Global Player Network, so players on a channel can play with other
players on any site. This allows sites of any size to host multi-player games and
ensures that players have live opponents with which to play at any time, night or day.
For sites that already have a large user base, Come2Play can also integrate their
games into the existing base.
Sites can create their channels entirely using Come2Play's automated online creation
tools, including site-specific branding, dozens of languages, and multiple service levels,
ranging from totally free (ad supported) to payment per game served.
Come2Play's game channels come in dozens of languages, and include some of the
most popular games in the world, including Chess, Checkers, Go, Reversi, Pool,
Sudoku, and many others. New games are regularly added to this list.

Networked Multi-Player Game Widgets for Every Site
Come2Play provides free networked multi-player game widgets ready to embed into
any site, personal home page, or social network page. Come2Play's widgets
connect to Come2Play's Global Player Network, so a large local user base is not
required to provide all players with ready opponents to play.
Open Networked Multi-Player API for Game Developers Coming Soon
Come2Play's free toolkits, which allow game developers to embed Come2Play's
networked multi-player gaming features into any Flash game, is in closed Alpha.
Using a simple API, game developers can add networked multi-player features to
their games without any complicated programming techniques.
Branded Advergames and Channels for Advertisers
Come2Play believes that these features provide new opportunities for advertisers
to create branded channels and social games with which to engage their customers.
Come2Play also provides development services for advertisers who wish to make use
of these new opportunities.
