Blue Frog Gaming is a small independent game studio founded in 2007 by Matt Maroon and backed by Y Combinator (Summer 2007 batch), based in Akron, Ohio. The company builds browser-based and social strategy games, best known for Starfleet Commander — a persistent, multi-universe game of resource management, alliance building, and fleet combat — along with Stardrift Empires (built with Syfy Games) and the sci-fi MMO ShadowRift. Blue Frog Gaming is a consumer game developer rather than an API-first platform: as of this profile it publishes no public developer portal, API documentation, SDKs, or machine-readable API description. This record is maintained in the API Evangelist network as a company profile; it will be upgraded if and when a public API surface is discovered.
Blue Frog Gaming is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Gaming, Video Games, Browser Games, and Social Games.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for
this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero:
never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and
several others — scorable at all.
