Gameye

Gameye is a managed game server orchestration platform for multiplayer game studios, founded in 2017 in Rotterdam (Gameye B.V.). It runs dedicated, containerized game servers across bare metal, cloud, and edge providers behind a single REST API — the Session API. Studios call POST /session with a region and a Docker image; Gameye selects the best available location, starts a container in about half a second, and returns the host IP and mapped ports players connect to. Capacity-based pricing carries no egress fees, and the platform is matchmaker-agnostic (Pragma Engine, Nakama, PlayFab, FlexMatch). Gameye has orchestrated 120M+ sessions with a 99.99% uptime SLA and serves studios including Torn Banner Studios (Chivalry 2) and Remedy Entertainment.

Gameye publishes 8 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Artifacts API, Available Location API, Logs API, and 5 more. Tagged areas include Company, Game Server Hosting, Game Server Orchestration, Multiplayer, and Containers.

The Gameye catalog on APIs.io includes 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Gameye’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 31 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):

MCP Server +12 pts — deployment.mode + probe verdict on the mcp/ manifest, not the pointer; an unprobed slug falls back to authorship
Idempotency +9 pts — OpenAPI mutating operations declare an idempotency key — a header, a request-body property, or a named de-duplication token whose own description says so (verified); else common[].type matches /idempoten/i (documented)
A2A Agent Card +8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0
Rate-Limit Signaling +7 pts — OpenAPI responses document X-RateLimit-* / RateLimit headers (verified), else a rate_limits artifact or RateLimits link (documented)
Request/Response Examples +7 pts — share of operations carrying request/response examples; else an Examples / Code Samples link
Registration Without a Human +6 pts — a `registration_endpoint` in the served RFC 8414 / OIDC discovery document

7 more unmet checks in the Agent Readiness table above.

Kin Score — facets with the most composite points still available (weight × headroom):

Contract Quality scores 48.7 — up to +12.8 composite points
Contract Governance scores 18.2 — up to +9.8 composite points
Operational Transparency scores 39.5 — up to +7.9 composite points

Each check links to what satisfies it. Publish the artifact, or tell us where it already lives, and the score moves on the next scoring run.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from the provider profile at artifacts.apis.io/gameye/apis.yml: open an issue on github.com/api-evangelist/gameye to ask a question or point us at an artifact you publish.
