For those who don’t know, playit.gg is a free/cheap service for exposing self-hosted local game servers to the wider internet.
But as someone who already has access to a cheapish VPS, I’m curious if anyone knows of any self-hostable alternatives that I could just run as a container on my VPS.
I’ve been toying with using Wireguard UDP tunneling, but it’s proving to be a little bit more difficult and complicated than I was bargaining for. So if anyone knows of anything out there that does something like this, I’d be grateful!
Yeah, that sort of thing.
I should say that I’m finally having some luck with using wireguard, so I’m making progress. Got a few rounds of Counter-Strike in with a friend about an hour ago!
Would that be CS 1.6? Can you get your game server to appear in the public list when you do it this way?
Yeah, CS 1.6!
I’m not sure about the master server list just yet, sorry.
Cool! I miss the CS 1.6 days when you’d have a favorite server or two where you’d play with familiar faces.
Some games have query ports for stuff like that. Maybe check for one.
