Hi everyone!
I want to start creating my own games, but I had in mind doing very basic online board games (Monopoly, Risk, etc). Is it very dificult to do online games? even if they are very basic? Do I need to have my own servers and all that jazz?
I've read good things about GameMaker and Unity, can you do online stuff with them? What tools would be the best for a basic 2D online game?
