Progressive Streaming

Play games while downloading

Unique to Yummy Games Quick Launch is its streaming technology which circumvents the need for end-users to download an entire game before starting game-play. End-users can start playing a game with only a small portion of the content downloaded, while the game continues to install in the background. In turn, this optimizes the broadband connection. Yummy's Streaming significantly speeds up delivery of game downloads by up to 90%. With our streaming technology, download wait times are optimized, especially for DVD PC games (with large file sizes).

Consumers can also start to enjoy their purchased game before it is fully downloaded! In general, only 10% of the game needs to be initially buffered, in order for the end-user to start playing. They can start to play a game while it continues to download in the background!
