Check out Romm. Not every romm can be streamed but think it meets your needs.
I haven't set either up yet, but my leaning is more towards gaseous-project due to not having to sign up for an IGDB account.
Using the igdb integration with romm is optional and doesn’t overtly degrade the ux
Glad to see this has been addressed! It was early last year when I was looking into this, and they only had IGDB support at the time. Thanks for the update!
Yeah the romm project maintainers are awesome; they’re very responsive to feedback/bugs and they’re constantly adding new features/publishing releases
I can second romm. it has EmulatorJS built in which will run most games in the web interface. there's also an android app (maybe iOS too can't remember) and they have apps for a few different handheld emulators. I have their app installed on MuOS on my RG35XXH and I can view my "cloud based" ROM library and download them straight to the anbernic's local library.
Good point, Romm can integrate well with MuOS, Playnite and other client side software you and others can install onto their actual devices. I've used Playnite on my devices to manage the emulator side and download the ROMs from the ROMs server.
In theory, you could also try a sunshine server and moonshine client to steam the games from you're server but guessing it would only work well over a local network, not over the internet to friends
This looks cool. So they never get a local copy of the game file, it always stays on my server side I think? It also seems to say that the system saves are not available yet but coming soon, which means if they were to play one day and pick it up a week later their progress would be reset; is that correct?
Looks much better than my response lol. Thanks
It's great to have options! Never heard of this one so will check it out too. That's part of the fun isn't it haha
