Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Official Stormgate Gameplay Reveal AMA Thread with Frost Giant Studios
We have a partnership with Hathora (https://hathora.dev/) so that our infrastructure can scale globally with high performance so we can provide the best user experience possible despite the realities of playing games over the internet. We also have some big plans around using rollback that we've covered elsewhere that we're cautiously optimistic about.

Show HN: Building an infinitely scalable multiplayer game
I cofounded Hathora (https://hathora.dev/) last year and we've been working on making it easier for smaller teams and individual developers to build scalable multiplayer games. We think the serverless model is the simplest approach, allowing you to dynamically provision a new instance of your game server when users or your matchmaker requests a new session.
We made this .io style demo to showcase this approach, and we're releasing the source code and documentation alongside with it.

Multiplayer hosting and scaling
Hey I'm the creator of https://hathora.dev/ which aims to provide a super simple deployment and scaling experience for session-based games. It's based on containers and can deploy any kind of game server. Check it out and see if it meets your needs!

Scalable WebSocket Architecture
At Hathora, our mission is to make it easier for developers to build, launch, and scale multiplayer games. One of the core technologies we have built is the Hathora Coordinator, which is our fully managed multi-tenant implementation of a Stateful Router.

Ask HN: Any solo game developers here?
Hi there! I started a company this year focused on multiplayer server infrastructure. We also built a multiplayer game framework for Typescript that has gotten 400+ stars on Github in the past few months: https://github.com/hathora/hathora
Would love to connect and exchange notes about multiplayer development -- if you're interested, my email is on my profile.

How Do Video Games Stay in Sync? An Intro to the Fascinating Networking O (Cont)
I've been working on my own realtime networking engine[0] and I think there are a few important points related to network syncing that are not mentioned in this article:
1) Bandwidth. The users internet can only handle so much network throughput, so for fast paced games (where you're sending data to each client at a rate of 20+ frames per second) it becomes important to optimize your per-frame packet size. This means using techniques like binary encoding and delta compression (only send diffs).
2) Server infrastructure. For client-server games, latency is going to be a function of server placement. If you only have a single server that is deployed in us-east and a bunch of users want to play with each other in Australia, their experience is going to suffer massively. Ideally you want a global network of servers and try to route users to their closest server.
3) TCP vs UDP. Packet loss is a very real problem, and you don't want clients to be stuck waiting for old packets to be resent to them when they already have the latest data. UDP makes a major difference in gameplay when dealing with lossy networks.

Do you want or plan to make a multiplayer game? What is stopping you?
I built a bunch of multiplayer games in the past and am now working on a framework to try and make it easier for others to do so: https://github.com/hathora/hathora

Ask HN: Who Wants to Collaborate?
I'm building an IBM 5150 emulator. Most of it is therefore an 8086 (technically 8088 but no difference for this) emulator. I have it successfully booting the BIOS and running BASIC in ROM (Casette BASIC). I'd like to boot DOS. I could use help with the disk support chips (everything is low level emulation right now) and more CGA graphics modes. It's just a hobby project—I'm not looking to make it performant, just working.
It's written in poor C++ with SDL.

Ask HN: Show me your Half Baked project
https://github.com/davecom/DK86PC
It's at the point where it gets through booting the BIOS and gets to the IBM Casette BASIC (I haven't made much progress on the floppy disk controller to boot DOS). But then all keys get recognized as apostrophes:
