Finally got around to listening to the first episode of “The Pear Report” even though I’ve been using Keet for a while and am a big fan of holesail.

One funny thing that I heard from the first episode was using the Pear stack to play older games that are either LAN only or have had their game servers long shuttered.

Back in 2006 I wrote game match making software to allow users to interact and play older games (that used directplay) like the original GTA and Age of Empires. The last piece I was looking to solve was firewall punching before other obligations forced me to stop the project.

I say all this because Pear and Nostr provide a great opportunity to recreate this project without the server piece.

I may have found my next hobby project (trying to maintain my “top 3”)
