Today I learned that Pokemon Go app is written using Unity and C# of course to support cross platform good performance experience…
This really shows how far C# came along not only being a web app framework language but more of a generic purpose powerhouse. I have not previously used C# for mobile development but this is a really strong indicator that in my next game project, it will be my go to setup.
Another interesting detail I learned was use of GPRC as a communication protocol between Client and Server. I did know before that it is really popular in Google’s microservices but using a protocol for a game made a lot of sense now. We usually build distributed systems without really tolerating latency using REST but I believe using GPRC could have made it easier to solve that problem.
