Too many players for one instance
MineRival needed to hold more players than a single Minecraft instance can. The answer was a multi-instance core: one server, spread across several instances, that plays like one.
We built the core parts of it.
Moving on
Before the core was finished, Zyro wanted us on other projects, for YouTubers he knew, so we switched to those.
What the core became
The core we built eventually handled thousands of players.
