PHILADELPHIA, PA — OCTOBER 30, 2025 — GAMELOOP, the first live interactive game channel for Smart TVs, today announced a major content and platform expansion, featuring a new slate of games from award-winning publishers Midwest Games, Troglobyte Games, and Something Special Games. This milestone marks the first deployment of Amazon GameLift Streams on AWS for ad-supported gaming on Smart TVs.
GAMELOOP’s free interactive SmartTV channel reimagines game discovery and monetization through live-hosted gameplay and its unique instant-launch “Play Now” feature. The experience blends live hosts, party gaming, and a cloud-based game catalog, transforming passive viewers into active players. Publishers gain transparent engagement metrics and ad-supported revenue, while Amazon GameLift Streams powers scalable cloud delivery of PC games directly to the TV.
"Game publishers are looking for ways to reach the nearly one billion-plus Smart TV audience without the cost and complexity of porting to new platforms," said Michael Gregor, CTO and Co-Founder of GAMELOOP. "Our GameLift-powered platform provides a turnkey solution for seamless cloud streaming across Smart TVs, with built-in monetization and measurement capabilities."
GAMELOOP’s expanding publisher network will include:
-
Hive Jump 2: Survivors – A sci-fi bullet-heaven roguelike where jetpack-equipped Jumpers must battle alien swarms, collect resources, and unlock upgrades across procedurally generated biomes.
-
The Lullaby of Life – An atmospheric, music-driven puzzle adventure where sound waves are used to awaken dormant beings through rhythm-based challenges in a vibrant, abstract universe.
