The Future of Gaming is P2P
summary
Shaga is a peer-to-peer game streaming system that keeps game computation on a single PC node while decentralizing the networking. Demos show a phone and controller connecting to a host PC, a GCP node running SuperTuxKart, and two clients on one node with a shared screen. Measured latencies are as low as 20–23 ms locally and about 45–50 ms between San Francisco and Phoenix. Early issues include mobile output glitches and port forwarding UX, and selective per-player screen shipping is in development.
