Antics provides a drop-in multiplayer SDK and hosted relay for browser-based games, eliminating the need for custom servers or player accounts. It leverages a host-authoritative model with WebSocket state sync, automatic host migration, and persistent leaderboards, targeting the growing space of AI-generated single-file games. The project is interesting for its focused solution to a common pain point in game prototyping.
