Globalization

True globalization - supporting hundreds of different skins and languages all on one game engine - is a far more complex task than swapping out text files in an interface.

And localization goes far beyond language. Foundation allows you to craft interfaces to make players feel at home - whatever their home. It also allows for events, loyalty programs and marketing messages that play to the local crowd. Your players can play in their own currency and Foundation supports local accounting systems like master agents.

Supporting true localization, including the difficult to integrate character-based Asian languages, has to be designed into a product from the ground floor.

Driven by CEO Chris Derossi's experience as Chief Architect of Mac OS7 - shipped worldwide in 23 languages - Foundation was designed from the ground floor to support sophisticated text construction rules for dynamic text, including gender, plural constructions, and date formats in any language - and running any number of instances on the same game server. The entire gaming environment, lobby and game, can be accurately tailored to the nuances of each language and culture served.
