About Galapagos
Galapagos is a server-side framework that can be used to develop multiplayer, Turn Based games for popular mobile platforms. It uses a service based approach offering a list of APIs through which you can directly implement all basic functionalities of a Turn Based game. Written in Python, Galapagos uses WebOb and Requests libraries to handle HTTP requests and responses. Nginx in the frontend acts as reverse proxy. Galapagos stores game data in our servers using MySQL. Python and MySQL database interact using PyMySQL. Games with multiplayer feature allow more than one player to play the game. All the players play the same game together. Games that use this strategy require the player to wait for his turn while his opponents complete their turn of play. This is one of the many ways mobile games are played and our gaming platform can be used to build games with such a logic.
