The system is still under development and new features including posts search will be added shortly.
SteemGG SDK - Toolkit for Game Developers

Following a few months of hardwork, our developers have finally completed the first stages of the SteemGG SDK, a toolkit for HTML5 game developers to allow them to have their games interacting with the Steem Blockchain through the SteemGG server. In particular, with the first stage, we have implemented the functionality of load and save games, score leaderboard, and getting user information.

Thank you for mentioning our book! It is a big thing for us and I hope it becomes a significant thing for Steem.
Good luck with the project. Excellent to get this published.
Found a few interesting pieces in there especially about the gaming tools. Thanks for the info.

That's great. Glad to hear it is of use.
Really appreciate this steem snapshot. Best from Thailand.

Thank you. Hope all is going well in Thailand.
I saw there was quite a gathering of Steemians up in Chiang Mai recently. Did you get to meet up?
It turned into several smaller meetups and yes, I went to one. Keeping it real. 😉

Re: drugwars, I thought this article by themarkymark on a risk he saw in the game was interesting if you didn't catch it and have the interest.

Hi Matt, that was a very interesting post.
Battles have now arrived. I wonder if that will change the picture...
