Getting tables from mySQL?

3absh

Hey guys,
I'm currently planning to work on a project that requires tables to be written and read from an SQL server.
It's a multiplayer, and that's the main function I need, and also chat support.
It's not heavy on graphics, there are theoretically no physics in this game, it's a pure strategic RPG/puzzle.

I want to know if it is possible to link Gamesalad to an SQL server.

Absolutley!

@abuabed84, sure, for asychronous multiplayer (turn-based), not real-time.

Here's the core documentation:

If you're okay with NoSQL you can use Amazon Services to do a serverless web based app:
