Hello everyone! 👋
For the past year I had fun messing around with Docker containers, Moonlight/Sunshine and HW acceleration; so much so that I’ve ended up building a Gamestream server from scratch!
The basic underlying idea is to allow the followings:
- Share a single server (possibly headless but doesn’t have to be) with multiple users
- by creating virtual HW accelerated desktops
- whilst keeping remote mouse, keyboard and controllers completely separated
- with low latency
It’s still rough around the edges, and it needs more testing from the community; if you want to check it out, here you can read the docs and here’s the Github repo.
That’s exactly our goal as well, there are still things that needs to be fixed and improved but the underlying idea is implemented and it works!
I’ll definitely set up an instance when I get some spare time.
Once you have it mature, you should reach out to Craft Computing on YouTube. He did a ~16 video series on different ways to build a private game streaming server and I believe what you have here would be much more achievable for a normal person.
