• Multiplayer in Unity with AWS (with downloadable Rock, Paper, Scissors game demo)

  Although not production-ready solution for multiplayer, it is a quick, easy and low-cost way to implement multiplayer functionality for prototyping purposes. For more long-term solutions, AWS does offer its own game server hosting service - AWS Gamelift. - Source: dev.to / 5 days ago

• Why does BHVR refuse to acknowledge this? I went out of my way to upgrade my internet since 2021 to have 35-45ms ping, but killers like this can VPN or play on dial-up and it goes in their favour? Why am I being punished for having good internet?

  You think Amazon servers aren't industry standard? https://aws.amazon.com/gamelift/. Source: 12 months ago

• Nexon's in-house notice spread in KR community

  There are a ton of technology solutions sold by other companies these days that - with the appropriate funding - can accelerate the timeline of damn near any project, multiplayer online games included. With a bit of expertise and a big enough credit limit, damn near anything's possible. Source: about 1 year ago

• Looking for free advice

  Before you get too far into things, give the documentation on GameLift a read: https://aws.amazon.com/gamelift/ I’ve never used it myself but it’s an AWS service that handles a lot of the “this is annoying” of deploying game servers on the AWS cloud. It can be used as a complete solution or as modules, and some of those modules might ease your development time. Source: over 1 year ago

• I'm monitoring network traffic of my Playstation and noticed increased numbers of p2p-hosted games instead of dedicated servers

  On PC, less than 5% of my matches are P2P connections. Google Cloud Game Servers can handle high amount of traffic; it is Google for God's sake! Google & Amazon host a lot of games. The only logical reason that would make the game switch to a player-hosted match should be because you & your opponent are closer to each other than the nearest server, but that's not always the case from the matches I see on PC.

• Featured Mod of the Month: Phil Ashby

  Publishing on platforms like itch.io are a great way to get feedback (but see comments about comments earlier!) and to see if an idea is worth pursuing. Self-published mini-games are also a good way to scratch that gamedev itch when it isn't your day job too - I should push a couple myself actually! - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• I randomly got MK11 booster when I haven't played the game for almost 4 years. Is my account compromised or something?

  This guy might not be farming. I'm not, but I have hundreds of cheap games from early humble bundles, huge itch.io fund raiser bundles, etc. Source: 6 months ago

• [SUGGESTION] If you liked The Painscreek Killing and Obra Dinn...

  I just found this game on itch.io and it's SO GOOD! Source: 6 months ago

• System Suggestions

  Combat is as gritty as the GM makes it. Healing is TOUGH out of the box, so by default it is already pretty gritty. In fact, part of the crew premise is players can have a few 'cast of characters' that sub in when a PC is in a rough spot. You as the GM choose what type of physical harm to give out, and how often - so it's pretty controllable. Like I said, look at itch.io for some alternate healing ideas if you... Source: 6 months ago

• Civitai dropped by its cloud computing provider after reports of possible CSAM

  I have just registered at itch.io and paid $10 for kudos. I don't have a GPU-equipped PC, I am just curious about the Horde system. Downloaded the client to my Windows laptop and ran it to generate a 512x512 picture of Julia fractal (my test prompt) with the Midjourney model, there seemed to be no SDXL models to choose from. It took about a minute to generate. The 2nd generation (with the same prompt), which took... Source: 6 months ago
