Build an In-Game Chat
Ecosystem Engineer, Allen Helton, demonstrates how he used Momento Cache collection data types to build an in-game chat for a game called Acorn Hunt. He walks through the different caches behind the game and the collection data types used in each, shows off the working chat application, and then pulls back the curtain on the API making it work.
