Facebook has published more details about its Facebook Gameroom project, which many see as a Steam competitor.
Facebook Gameroom for PC gaming (Arcade project) is a Windows-native client available as a free download for players.
Within the Facebook Gameroom, players can experience both web games and native games built for the platform.
Building native games for Facebook Gameroom brings many benefits, said Facebook, including:
- Gameroom focusses on gameplay for players, ensuring an exclusive and immersive gaming experience.
- Developing in Gameroom natively takes less time: it’s easier compared to HTML5 and gives better solutions around threading, debugging, networking, and memory management.
- Gameroom provides better performance in terms of app launch timings and memory consumption in native games.
The video below provides more information on how to integrate a Unity game with Facebook Gameroom.
