Server-Authoritative Multiplayer Browser Game

Approx. component budget: Rs. 0 - 2,000

Objective

Make a fair multiplayer game that feels smooth even with delay and cheating attempts.

What you will build

A real-time 2D multiplayer game (such as a small arena or racing game) where the server decides what happens and clients only send inputs.

Results you can expect

• Latency and update rate with 20 players
• Smoothness under 150 ms artificial delay with prediction
• Blocked tampered inputs
• And server CPU use

What you will learn

Game loops, client prediction, interpolation, server authority, and basic anti-cheat.

Tools and notes

JavaScript, Node.js with WebSockets, HTML5 Canvas or Phaser, network throttling tools in browser developer tools.

Resume points from this project

• Built and tested Server-Authoritative Multiplayer Browser Game; objective: make a fair multiplayer game that feels smooth even with delay and cheating attempts.
• Measured and analysed latency and update rate with 20 players and smoothness under 150 ms artificial delay with prediction; wrote the report and presented the results in a viva. Add your own numbers: [x].

Replace [x] with your own measured results. Write only what you really did.
