   Appwrite is awesome, free and open-source!

   I've use it instead of Firebase on a 15$ DigitalOcean droplet and saved around ~$150 a month. Managing my own infra does take some extra time, but definitely worth it. The APIs and SDK are also surprisingly much easier to consume than Firebase. Waiting for the cloud version.

   🏁 Competitors: Firebase

   👍 Pros:    Easy to use|Cost effective|Open-source|Great user experience|Super simple|Self hosted

   👎 Cons:    Self hosted

• Is there anyway to create an “online guild” system in my idle game.

  You can do that, but for what platform? html5? windows? android?, the most easiest way is use firestore a service from firebase (offer a free tier), it is the easiest way not the better, other way is use a service like nakama that is more professional and something in the middle can be mmm pocketbase or supabase.

• Recommendations for Tech for 1v1 RTS Indie Game

  Does anyone have recommendations on what to use? I've done a bit of research and found https://heroiclabs.com/. It's a bit unclear to me if it actually supports server side state because it talks about 'hosts' a bit, but I think it does...and it seems like you can host it yourself to avoid the $600 a MONTH! pricetag. But any other recommendations? Has anyone used heroic before? Source: over 1 year ago
