  • First Online:

Abstract

Game Kit has to be one of the coolest frameworks available for people interested in developing games on the iOS SDK. Game Kit classes provide three different technologies: GameCenter, Peer-to-Peer Connectivity, and In Game Voice. With iOS 7, Apple introduced a new framework called Multipeer Connectivity. This chapter will focus on Peer-to-Peer Connectivity using Multipeer Connectivity. We won’t be covering any of the Game Kit functionality in this chapter. Game Kit still works, but Multipeer Connectivity is a much easier and more relevant framework.
