https://easel.games A programming language which lets you code multiplayer games like singleplayer games. Every program written in Easel is guaranteed deterministic and snapshottable, which is how it can automatically make your game multiplayer automatically using rollback netcode. My hope is that teenagers who makes games in Scratch might like to make games in Easel because it means they can make games they can play…
What I don't understand about your idea is that netcode as far as I understand is way more complex than you make it seem. The netcode for something like a MOBA or MMORPG is drastically different than the netcode for a much simpler turn-based game.
