Self hosting kids-friendly multiplayer games on Raspberry Pi 4
I'm working on a little project and I would like to have some multiplayer game that I can play with the kids. Ideally they should be little kids friendly, so no doom or quake.
I tried Minecraft, bedrock but the latency over wifi (and it needs to be over wifi for my project) is really bad.
In an ideal situation, I'd like to have one or more games that
- Can be played in multiplayer mode
- Ideally you only need the browser
- Is relatively lightweight, so can be run on a Raspberry Pi with Wifi
Any suggestions besides the one I mentioned? Maybe some emulator that can be used? Thanks!
You're viewing a single thread.
does an emulator count? like MAME or NES etc?
@[email protected] that is fine, but I suspect it is not possible to play it in a multiplayer setting via a browser
Definitely possible -- check out emulatorjs. There are a few premade docker containers for it, but they were a bit finicky when I tried them. I eventually just ended up writing a react wrapper for it and have it hosted in a docker container. It works great, and will even play psx games without issue.
@[email protected] Do you mind to elaborate a bit more?
