What I mean is the only way to play the game is though a streaming service. This way the game code is never public. This probably is already a thing but I haven’t heard anything about it.

    I guess so. I recently setup moonlight + sunshine + tailscale and have been self hosting game streaming. I really do see the appeal of it for some games. It’s nice not have to sit at desk or have to holding giant hand held.

      It works when it’s local, because the ping can stay low. Try it over a shitty US internet service provider from a town that’s a few hundred miles from the nearest data center and it’ll be a different story.

        Yeah, Steam in-home-streaming is great and is something I have used on many an occasion.

        Game streaming over the internet is simply miserable.
