League of Legends Launcher Redesign

Tech Stack

Flash, Flex
Adobe AIR
ActionScript 3.0

In the Summer of 2012, Riot Games reached out to FLASHized (a Flash focused sister company of X-Team) and asked for help for coming up with the next generation of their League of Legends launcher. The technology behind it was Adobe AIR with a custom flavour of Flex and various in-house Flash libraries. To circumvent the performance limitations of the Flash runtime, we explored the cutting edge GPU support (Molehill) which allowed us to really push the envelope. We did a lot of exploration of new designs and concepts which were then used to completely redesign the launcher from the groundup.
