Three new online 'battle royale' multiplayer games utilizing low-latency WebRTC! One kinda like 2D Fallguys, and the other is kinda like a real-time Worms.

OK, we finally managed to get WebRTC multiplayer working on our browser games and launched!   Both Goober Dash and Rocket Bot Royale integrate unreliable and reliable data channels for communication with our game servers.  This is a huge win, especially for low-latency real-time gaming on the web.  Both these games are relatively fast twitch, and we've noticed a huge improvement utilizing the unreliable WebRTC data channel over of our previous websocket implementation.

Both games are free to play, and should work right in the browser on itch.io:

And actually we have another game jam game using the same tech stack here as well:

Comments and criticisms welcome.  We're pretty happy with this stack right now, so going to try something next with 100's to 1000's of players in a single match.
  

These games are awesome, such a huge fan! I highly reccomend them.

I love Goober Dash and spent more than 1000 hours on the game and it is fun every day. At the moment there are approx. 300 different levels and its very entertaining to race them and compete with 100's of real people from all over the world to collect as many wins as possible. Everyone who likes 2D-Platformers should try this game out!

Amazing game, it's so good and you can enjoy so much with this game that's literally for free!

I played Rocket Bot Royale for over 3 years, it is still fun to grind somehow so shout out for doing something right!

ThatGuy: I've been playing Rocket Bot Royale for over 2 years and it has never failed to provide a fun time and I don't see myself stopping anytime soon.

I’ve been playing Rocket Bot Royale for almost two years now, and I’m still totally loving the experience. I’ve easily put in over 500 hours, and I’m not planning to stop anytime soon. The game’s just so good that you can never really master it, which keeps it exciting.  What I love most is that none of Winterpixel’s games are pay-to-win. It’s all about skill. If you missed out on some cool skins, you can still purchase them through the Daily Deal. New players even get a Starter Deal to help them get started. At the end of the day, Rocket Bot Royale isn’t just a game, it’s an action-packed experience that keeps pulling me back in.
