Now I'm developing simple network game with unity c#. Please give me some advise.

  • My Condition

    • I have limited time to develop server (less than 2 weeks)
    • I'm fluent at JAVA and c#.
    • I'm new to game server programming.

  • Requirement

    • Concurrent users with local network (~ 10), latency is not a problem
    • Shooting game (enemy's movment and user's status has to be tracked with real time)

  • Possible Solution

    1. start from nothing (eg. websocket server with JAVA(spring) or csharp) - this stackoverflow answer will be good start point
    2. unity-multiplay : I tested it, and easy. but don't know how exactly work.
    3. other platform such as photon engine(https://www.photonengine.com/en/OnPremise)

Any comment will be welcome to me. Thank you.

    I think using UNET is your best shot considering the short period of time. You'd take maybe a day or two to get the basics. – Everts Jan 09 '17 at 08:39
  • I tried one tutorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovUnNJlREIk&list=PLwyZdDTyvucw5JhBMJxFwsYc1EbQYxr0G). Are there other good tutorials that I can try? – Sangwon Choi Jan 09 '17 at 08:41

    Unity docs is something to begin with. All online tutorials are just a redo of the Unity docs. https://unity3d.com/fr/learn/tutorials/topics/multiplayer-networking – Everts Jan 09 '17 at 08:45
  • Do you need to run your custom code on the server? If you only need to sync your players and their actions, Photon Cloud will improve your dev-time a lot. Any other case, UNET will fit your needs at no cost. – Vancete Jan 10 '17 at 08:23
