Multiplayer games bring players together, but building robust multiplayer systems can be challenging. Godot provides the tools for local networking and peer-to-peer connections, but scaling beyond these setups often requires additional frameworks. In this talk, we’ll explore the full spectrum of multiplayer development in Godot: from local peer-to-peer setups to advanced solutions like hole punching with WebSockets and hosted, autoscaling servers using Agones on Kubernetes. Whether you’re building a small co-op game or a global multiplayer experience, this talk will equip you with the knowledge to succeed.
