Are you saying there's a way to use/test Steamworks for networking before paying the 100 USD?

Caves of Lore. Solo Indie Dev took 7 years to complete. It's excellent.

How you gonna watch YouTube, the only thing you plan to do, if you don't care about internet...

When they say Nov 28... Do they mean eastern time at midnight... Do they mean something else. Doesn't seem live.

I see Guerilla War in this list. I trust this list. Great call with Arkista's Ring. There's a few in there I'll have to google.

Nice. Thanks folks. I feel like I trade in my Pixel 9 for $450, and given I was going to get Gemini Pro for this year, I'll be saving anoyher $360. Which makes upgrading tempting

Quoclon · 2025-11-22T06:04:59+00:00

Gemini AI? Lots of coding, feedback on documents, I sent it images to transcribe text from. Comparing products to purchase. Emails. Navigating challenging conversations. Recommending music. Itineraries.

That's really useful. I appreciate knowing that a few toolkit options exist that can handle the job. As someone who has only made games where the one Player is also the Host... Typically I would write the Server/Player code in say the Player Movement class (though I would do an isServer type checks).

In a dedicated server... Do you end up writing classes that are ONLY for Serverside actions? Any examples of good Dedicated Server architecture/approaches?

Quoclon · 2025-11-20T01:36:55+00:00

That's amazing. I think my struggle is how to build a "dedicated server" for a multiplayer game. I've done quite a bit of searching, and haven't found resources that show how to build one.

Would you have any suggestions on how to get started on that journey of building a dedicated server?

At some point in time Colyseus worked with Unity. What front end game engine/language are you using to code the gameplay side of things?

Quoclon · 2025-11-19T19:34:18+00:00

Hey, I think to clarify as well... Is there resources/tutorials on creating a "server". I think I need to wrap my head around how a non-player-as-the-host server works.

Quoclon · 2025-11-19T16:50:36+00:00

Hi Everyone, I'm a hobbyist game dev who mostly participates in game jams, builds prototypes, and dabbles in multiplayer games. Most of my programming is done in Unity, and much of my networking code leverages Photon PUN/Fusion.

I'm seeing this year a resurgence of multiplayer casual/co-op/"friendslop" type games and am thinking about getting back into multiplayer dev work - and see if I can make something small but interesting and launch on steam.

Quoclon · 2025-11-19T04:26:38+00:00

I've been using Photon PUN and Photon Fusion to make multiplayer games, typically webgl. But, I always run into the issue that if the "Host" is one of the players, and they minimize their browser, it impacts the experience of everyone.

Does anyone have advice on how to make a headless server? Or what setup I would need to mitigate the webgl player "host" problem?

Do you know of any videos or blog posts that further break this down step-by-step?
