TurnKit
Secure turn-based backend for Unity. Stop building servers.
What it does
Turn-based devs are usually stuck: build a complex authoritative server for months, or use a simple relay with zero cheat protection. TurnKit is the middle ground. We provide a secure backend that stays out of your way. Our Client Consensus voting, State Masking (hiding hands/cards) and Turn enforcment give you professional security without the simulation overhead. Native Unity SDK, but works with any engine. Comes with Leaderboards too. Free up to 20 CCU. Simple CCU only pricing after.

I know plenty of people have been burnt by Oracle in the past, but I have had servers running on the free tier for 5 years now without so much as a hiccup. Regardless, the concepts will be the same using any cloud based server. This is the first time I've written up an end-to-end…

I’m tired of getting screwed by game backends like Microsoft PlayFab and Unity Gaming Services. To get a simple cross-platform friends system, we’ve bent over backward fighting against their limited APIs to jerry-rig the behavior we need. These backends “solved” their platform’s rigidity by tacking on a clunky scripting layer [1] [3] with a proprietary KV database [2] [4] (look ma, no transactions!). They proceed to claim you can build a LiveOps game on this rubbish without testing, database migrations, monitoring, BI tooling, etc. We got fed up and built an open-source backend engine as an…

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
