ggscale

ggscale is an open-source backend for multiplayer games. It runs as one Go binary against one Postgres database, and you host it yourself. That gives a game player accounts, saves, leaderboards, social features, matchmaking, and a game-server fleet without stitching several services together.

Your data stays in your own database. A deployment fits on a single VPS and scales out when a game needs more. You do not run a message broker or a separate cache tier next to it, and there is no sidecar.

Where to go next

• Integrate your game. Start with the Quickstart, then read Core Concepts and the Feature Guides.
• Self-host the server. See Run in Production for Compose and bare-binary setups.
• Contribute. Read the Architecture page and the Contributing guide.
