Diamond Sky Casino

Hey everyone!

I posted a while back about a job opening at the company I work for and this is the project that we needed programmers for: (there are still some openings as well)

Diamond Sky Casino (960x640 Low Res with compressed assets)

Diamond Sky Casino (1920x1080 HD Quality)

It's an online Facebook casino! Programmed the game engine from scratch in JavaScript / HTML5 and the backend using C# with IIS and WebSockets. It doesn't use any 3rd party rendering frameworks - everything is straight 2d HTML5 canvas. A WebGL version of the renderer is in the works.

It launched 2 weeks ago today! Needless to say, I'm proud that something I through together in 5 months turned out this decent. (not great, mind you, but decent)

GoDaddy Dedicated Server was probably a really really bad idea. Just a heads up to anyone looking to get hosting.

I'd highly recommend OVH over GoDaddy if you're looking for dedicated stuff. They're supposed to spin up a US DC in addition to their Canadian one and their European ones in the next year or so.

Azure sounds cool, and would work well for a Windows-based thing like this, but I hear very bad things about their reliability. AWS or Google Compute Engine might be decent options for you, though.
