History

Plynd was founded at the end of 2013. Our mission was to empower HTML5 developers to build engaging multiplayer games. We gained traction in the developers community with our solution, and were incubated at Telecom Sud after winning the Trophee Startup Numerique 2013.

We decided to terminate our service in November 2017 due to the costs of maintaining the infrastructure.

Arms Race

Arms Race was the first game that we built on top of our platform to refine and showcase our technology. It was an adaptation of the famous multiplayer game Risk.

Here are some numbers:

• 20K+ users registered ; 4000+ downloads on the Play Store
• Close to 40K games played. In total, that's 700K+ times of a user connecting and taking a turn, and more than 8 million actions taken
• 90K+ messages were exchanged in the chat. Among which 1000 mentioned "luck" :-)
