I've been trying to do a little work on properly securing a
game and have a
couple of questions / comments.
First of all, anyone have any thoughts on the possibility of
creating a page
that could be used to test deep linking / embedding of games
and other apps?
Is it possible? I thought it would be really nice if a page
could be setup
where you would enter the URL of your game. The page would
then attempt to
embed the game... Doable?
Is there any good reference on how to do deep linking and
the like? I had a
security scenario in mind but am not sure it would work...
Basically - game
starts and generates a random key string. An internal
algorithm turns this
key string into a number - a checksum as it were. The key is
also sent to a
PHP page located in the same folder as the movie, which runs
an identical
algorithm and returns the checksum back to the game. If the
two checksums
match the game plays...
This is somewhat like the tutorial on robot duck describes
doing it, but in
a simpler manner. If the game properly deep linked though,
then it is served
from my server and so the scripts would still validate
properly... wouldn't
they?
