Core features built for micro-experiences

Instant lobbies

Lightweight rooms with matchmaking tuned for 3–8 minute runs. Spectator mode, mini leaderboards and modular rulesets make jams effortless.

Telemetry & tools

Live metrics, per-run replays and heatmaps help teams iterate fast. Export data or drive in-browser analytics for creators.

Monetize with grace

Micro-prizing, charity pots, and sponsor overlays integrate without friction. Keep focus on play.

Composer SDK

A compact API to wire scoring, combos and visual FX into builds. Ship prototypes in hours, not months.

How it works — loop, judge, repeat

  1. Design a short loop — target 2–6 minute sessions with clear win states.
  2. Plug telemetry — bind score hooks, spectator markers and replays.
  3. Run a jam — schedule, seed matches, and route results to leaderboards.

Runs are judged by hybrid scoring: objective metrics mixed with community votes. That blend creates surprising play patterns and keeps every match interesting.
