**Game Development Platform (SDK)**: This will be an application layer.

> Customised software development kits and gaming engines for the game developers to build and test their games before deploying on the Cypher Blockchain.
> {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Blockchain Platform" %}
**Blockchain Platform**: A core blockchain-based functional module, which will be further divided into “Contract Layer- A multilingual smart contract platform” and “Consensus Layer- A smart Engagement based consensus governance module”.
