TreadMarks
Tread Marks is a computer program that allows multiple players to compete in real-time multiplayer games by creating a virtual network over the internet. It uses a technique called "client-side prediction" to ensure smooth gameplay, reducing lag and delays. Essentially, it helps players see their actions instantly while synchronizing game states across all participants. Originally developed for real-time strategy games, Tread Marks provides a framework for developers to build multiplayer experiences without relying on centralized servers, giving players a more responsive and reliable online gaming experience.
