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.

This site has a bunch of neat copy/paste-able CSS loading spinners you can use if you can't do it yourself by hand: https://loading.io/ (although beware that this site makes Firefox insta-crash when I try to open it??? Chrome is fine though, huh). Source: over 2 years ago
