GameDuell is available on its own brand website as well as on partner sites, social networks, and the iPhone. GameDuell produces fast, productive games and for the developing we need simple and powerful tools.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Solution:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Using a debugger is an immense improvement of the workflow. The ability to remote-debug is the biggest advantage for us because we are able to debug the application inside the real online scenario and not just locally in a \u201cfake\u201d environment, which can never reflect the live-version completely. Due to the amount of Flash developers it was always a risky task to change something inside the existing libraries. Now we have refactoring features and can finally preview all changes which are being made by renaming classes or properties. Therefore, the process of applying changes is much smoother and more predictable than before.<\/p>\n<p><strong> The History:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>GameDuell was founded in 2003 with the vision to combine social games with innovative transaction models. Our passion for high-quality games and a thrilling user experience has made GameDuell one of the best monetizing, as well as one of the largest, casual games communities in the world. Our products are available in 7 languages and are played by more than 12 million people every month.<br \/>\nOur network of more than 200 distribution partners includes the most prominent Internet portals and game sites in the world. The company is driven by a team of over 170 game-enthusiasts and has offices in Berlin and San Francisco.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For us working and developing with FDT is productive and fun!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The guys from GameDuell wrote us a really nice user story that we don&#8217;t want to hold back.
