Your own game server - friends join with one code

Maria and Sara run a game server at home. Friends join with a Beam-in code instead of an open port on the router.

Maria and Sara about Awacino

What I like
Our friends are in with one code, and we can switch it off any time.
Use case
We use Awacino to let our friends play on the game server in our flat.
What works better than with alternative solutions
No port forwarding on the router and no public server address for strangers to find.

The story

Hosting a game server usually means opening a port on the router for everyone on the internet. With Awacino, only the friends who have a Beam-in code reach the server - direct and encrypted.

We are filming this tutorial right now. Until it is here, the parts of Awacino it uses are linked below - and you can try the same with two free slots.

What the tutorial will show

  1. Awacino on the game server at home
  2. Create a Beam-in code for a friend
  3. The friend joins from their home
  4. Switch the code off after the evening
