    Hey everyone, A couple of weeks ago I shared a small toy game engine I’d been working on: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46491560 I got a lot of great feedback, and several p…

    Not exactly, since they aren't opinionated in the game engine, they can't control what "primitives" are being used to render.. they probably just encode video

    That's AMAZING! I will definitively follow that!

    Yeah.. As people are playing and I'm watching their feedbacks it is becoming clear to me that the main source of input delay comes from the distance to the server.. the whole game …
