Summary
🤩
RockstarGlenn Fiedler is a founder and game networking specialist with over a decade of hands-on experience building multiplayer systems and companies from New York. He leads Network Next, Más Bandwidth, and Space Game LLC, focusing on network acceleration, secure UDP-based netcode, and massive 1000-player space battles. Glenn combines deep technical skills in secure client/server protocols (IETF ChaCha20-Poly1305, libsodium) with product-level thinking to deliver low-latency multiplayer experiences. His open-source work on secure UDP netcode underscores a pragmatic approach to cryptography and cross-platform support, including Windows builds. Equally comfortable steering startups and shipping core backend systems, he brings an uncommon blend of engineering rigor and multiplayer game design intuition.
