Summary Description: (From www.wikipedia.com:) Kaneva was originally founded to develop a massively multi-player online game (MMOG) but its founders perceived a need in the gaming industry for a software solution that would aid in the development of games. In late 2004, Kaneva released the first version of their Kaneva Game Platform that included features to enable professional or independent game developers to develop games.[2]
As Web 2.0 became more mainstream, Kaneva decided to use its own technology to develop a virtual world that combined video sharing, social networking and 3D environments into one place. In 2005, Kaneva started development on the Virtual World of Kaneva, the company’s flagship product.[3] The Virtual World of Kaneva was released into beta in mid 2006.
This new direction, however, did not abandon the original focus of the Kaneva Game Platform. A new site was created in April 2006 to allow the community of game developers to collaborate on their projects. This site was named the Kaneva Elite Developers Site. Currently, the Kaneva Elite Developers have over a hundred games in development and thousands of active game developers.
