The motivation behind this project is to create a game server with a small static memory layout that can host authenticated game sessions. It also needs to support browser clients, and thus must use TCP for networking and implement a basic version of the WebSocket protocol.
The current state is a server that can be compiled to serialize and transmit a
compile time decided Message struct to and from clients. Connections can be
authenticated with Ed25519 and encrypted with ChaCha20-Poly130.
The server listens on a single TCP socket and can accept WebSocket connections
or raw TCP connections. The design only requires 8 bytes of additional memory
per connection to support WebSocket connections.
In progress is an account system alongside lobbies and matchmaking.
