# Rune

Build a multiplayer game played by millions! Your game runs inside the Rune app with 10 million installs across [iOS](https://apps.apple.com/app/rune-games-and-voice-chat/id1450358364) and [Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ai.rune.tincan). You focus on your game, Rune handles everything else, incl. servers and networking.

You can make your game using JavaScript / TypeScript and your favorite web framework such as React, Svelte, Vue, Threejs, PixiJS, Phaser. The Rune app has friends, messaging, spectating and voice chat built-in to turn your game into an incredible multiplayer experience.

## Features

- **Social**: Rune has messaging and voice chat so players can hang out together and talk about your game.

- **Fast & Reliable**: Our predict-rollback netcode updates clients immediately and the server resolves conflicts.

- **Free**: We pay for servers, voice chat, and everything else. It's 100% free to launch your game on Rune.
