What Suroi actually does
Suroi is an open-source 2D battle royale game modelled on surviv.io. Players drop onto a map, scavenge for equipment, and fight to be the last survivor from a top-down perspective.
Best fit: Hosting a private multiplayer gaming instance for friends or running a community server based on open-source battle royale mechanics.
Worth knowing: The codebase is a community-driven project with moderate activity, meaning you may encounter balancing issues, bugs, or limited documentation during setup.
Deployment notes
As a Node.js application, it typically requires a reverse proxy such as Nginx or Caddy to handle TLS termination and process management tools like PM2 to keep the server running.
