Illyriad-GamesListen to the podcast.

Illyriad (ih-lih-re-ad) Games is an independent studio based across three continents. Realizing that WebGL isn't just a pipe dream, they've built their latest game on it. Their lcurrent title, Age of Ascent, is built on a custom WebGL engine, and is using Azure as a backend, with the ability to scale to 50k+ concurrent users.Joining me tonight are CTO, Ben Adams, and CEO, James Niesewand. We discuss what it's like to manage a small team of developers across 3 continents, the importance of managing every last bit of processing power, when it comes to a game that scales to this size, and performance implications across browsers.ageofascent.com@Ben_A_Adams@JniesewandTechnical Whitepaper from Microsoft
