I am curious how many Scala developers on this sub use Scala to make games.
There's a nice community of Scala game developers around Indigo. The dedicated Discord is at https://discord.gg/b5CD47g

look at https://peerjs.com that this the project is using.

Help us prioritize features for our decentralized p2p chat app
this app is using peerjs to connect peers over a webrtc connection. check out thier docs for more info. with webrtc, things like file-transfer, should be very performant compared to cloud storage providers... especially over LAN. network speed doesnt seems to be an issue i have experienced.

Some things I learned, retrofitting a browser-based RTS for network multiplayer.
I'm using the client-side PeerJS https://peerjs.com/ library for networking. As the name may imply, a direct connection is established between two peers using WebRTC via "handshake" through an intermediary server they host - and, they provide source for the server as well. I have found it to be quite reliable, thus far.

A question about webrtc
You kind of sound like a beginner. The browser APIs are a bit painful to work with. It might be easier to use PeerJS: https://peerjs.com/

If you want you can use Preact. PreactJS is a lightweight alternative to ReactJS, designed for high performance and compatibility. is often used in applications where performance is critical and has a small footprint.

Do you feel that programming has been easier to understand in game development versus other types of programming because of your experience with actual videogames?
This opens up a lot of neat possibilities, and fortunately I found a very easy JavaScript library for handling multiplayer called PeerJS. The way you can send packets from player to player is very simple and something even a beginner to JavaScript could understand.

Ask HN: Those making $0/month or less on side projects – Show and tell
You might be able to eliminate the VPS by making it P2P using something like PeerJS [1]. PeerJS provides a free shared connection broker server.
