Could you build this?
Partial A real-time multiplayer dogfight action game requires complex low-latency networking, client-side prediction, and authoritative physics simulations that are difficult to vibe-code without strong game-dev systems engineering.
What it would actually take: The game uses WebGL/Pixi.js for rendering and an authoritative Node.js/Rust game server communicating via WebSockets or WebTransport. The hardest challenges are writing tick-based determinism, dead reckoning, lag compensation, spatial partitioning for collision detection at scale, and server orchestration across regions. This demands specialized game networking engineering expertise.
