Customer Introduction
Archosaur Games has been driving industry innovation since its founding, bringing over two decades of rich industry experience. Its journey began with Zulong Studio, established in 1997 and spanning the era of standalone games, PC online games, browser games, and mobile games.
Life Makeover is Archosaur Games's self-developed and self-published global fashion simulation game for women, combining outfit customization, DIY clothing design, home decoration, story-driven progression, and social interaction in a 3D open world. The game is available in over 100 countries and regions globally, with standout performance in local market localization and operations.
Challenges & Goals
As Life Makeover scaled its global operations, Zulong Entertainment had to address two core infrastructure challenges:
Cross-region latency and link instability
With a global publishing architecture centered in North America, cross-continental physical latency and unstable cross-border network links, the developer faced major technical challenges in delivering a consistent experience to players worldwide.
High-frequency, large-volume game asset updates
Frequent in-game art asset updates of significant size placed considerable demands on CDN distribution and version update efficiency, requiring reliable download speeds, stability, and a smooth update experience for global players.
Why Tencent Cloud
Life Makeover's global ambitions demanded a partner with comprehensive network reach and content delivery expertise to serve players reliably across continents. Tencent Cloud's established presence in North America offered exactly that foundation. It ensured stable global access and improved client update efficiency, ultimately leading to the full migration of the game's overseas business to Tencent Cloud.
Highlighted Benefits
1.Global Network Coverage with Low Latency
By leveraging Tencent Cloud's North America core nodes, and local Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) network optimization, it ensured high-quality, stable network paths across the globe, delivering a cross-region low-latency, highly available, and smooth gameplay experience for players worldwide.
2.Efficient Asset Distribution via EdgeOne
Using EdgeOne static content delivery, backed by ample overseas bandwidth capacity, Tencent Cloud enabled preloading and proximity-based distribution of game assets through mid-tier origins and edge-node pre-warming, improving CDN cache hit rates, download efficiency, and significantly reducing origin server load.
