GoWorld is a scalable distributed game server engine written in Go, featuring spaces and entities with AOI support, hot-swappable game logic, and TCP/KCP/WebSocket communication. It scales capacity across multiple machines via a dispatcher/gate architecture.

Use cases

  • build a scalable multiplayer game server in Go
  • hot-swap game logic without downtime
  • implement AOI and entity synchronization for MMOs
  • create a distributed chat server
  • connect a Unity client to a Go backend

When to choose

  • you need a distributed, horizontally scalable game server in Go
  • you want hot-swapping of game logic
  • you need built-in entity/space management with AOI

When to avoid

  • you need a general-purpose web framework
  • your game is single-process and simple
  • you prefer engines in other languages like C++ or Java
