I was joining in identifying that there is a rush towards games being acceptable, yet at the [...] Tweet I have been diving into Unity3d multiplayer again. Whilst previous attempts I was using a socket server I had ignored the simplicity of the Peer to Peer networking that Unity can do to make life much easier to prototype things.
