These systems provide game designers with all the tools they need to write games. Our goal is to allow game designers to easily and quickly create games without having to start from scratch. Most support multiple operating platforms, such as LinuxX, MacOSX, and Microsoft Windows. Game engines include the following systems: rendering engine (ie "renderer", including 2D graphics engine and 3D graphics engine), physics engine, collision detection system, sound effects, scripting engine, computer animation, artificial intelligence, network engine, and scene management.

As a part of software testing, game testing has all the common characteristics of software testing: the purpose of testing is to find defects in the software. Testing is performed by testers based on product behavior descriptions. Product behavior descriptions can be written specifications, requirement documents, non-product files, user manuals, source code, or working executable files.
7. Operation
Game operation is the process of bringing a game to the market. Through the operation of the product, users can recognize and understand the actual online operation and eventually become loyal users of the game.

As network technology continues to develop, it can be dynamically upgraded to adapt to changing technology (hardware and software). iOS can be regarded as a network center. A highly intelligent administrator is responsible for managing and controlling complex distributed network resources.
