Could you build this?

Partial The game was demonstrated to be rapidly prototyped with AI assistants, but real-time multiplayer networking with physics and low-latency vehicle reconciliation still requires custom server authoritative game logic.

What it would actually take: The front-end renders in Three.js or Babylon.js, but stable multiplayer requires a dedicated authoritative Node.js/Go backend using WebSockets or WebRTC (e.g., Colyseus, Geckos.io) handling spatial partitioning, client prediction, server reconciliation, and lag compensation for vehicular collision physics.
