Ryu Games provides an SDK that lets mobile game developers add cash tournaments to their titles. Players typically compete asynchronously by wagering high scores against one another, with Ryu likening the flow to a poker tournament. Ryu collects a fee for hosting the tournaments. Integrating the SDK often requires partner developers to relaunch a version of their game, so Ryu offsets that work by cross-promoting titles that use its system. The company hopes to be present on a few dozen games this year. It raised $2.3 million in a seed round from a group of investors.
