Server Systems Overview
The overall goal of our server systems is to offer new ways to create, play and experience computer games. An important benefit with remote play techniques is that the games are executing on the server-side, which means that more advanced approaches can be used to develop the computer games. Such new approaches can improve user experiences and reduce development efforts. Grid Computing can, for example, be used for specific computing intensive tasks, such as ray-traced graphics, physics, artifical intelligence, speech, etc. Cloud Computing principles can be used to offer improve human-computer interaction.
Computer Game Components™
Our Game Engine Components™ are designed for building Grid Computing game engines, as well as
traditional game engines. The Game Engine Components™ consist of a Java™ 2 Micro Edition
implementation with APIs, graphics functionalities, remote play techniques, heads-up display techniques,
desktop application integration, system functionalities, etc.
Geelix® LiveGames™
Geelix® LiveGames™ is a service (cloud) where end-users can
try serious computer games using the remote play tool. The service exclusively offers computer games with
educational content and Christian values.
Geelix® InGame™
Geelix® InGame™ is a service (cloud) where parents and others
can socialize to review serious computer games. The desktop application and heads-up display
can be used to record and upload video clips to the service.
Geelix® GameDev OS™
Geelix® GameDev OS™ is a service (cloud) for offering educational
programs and projects within the fields of computer game design and development.
