So you want to learn how to make a multiplayer game using a Low-Level API in Godot? In this video, I'll take you through how I use the Low-Level API provided by Godot to create a multiplayer game. I'll be teaching you a bunch of stuff like making our own network handler from scratch and encoding and decoding bytes into a network packet.
IN THIS VIDEO, I USE ASSETS FROM THE PREVIOUS VIDEO ON HIGH-LEVEL API! YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO WATCH THAT VIDEO, AS THEY ARE PRETTY EASY TO RECREATE.
