Open Game Backend

Open-source modular backend for all games and tools.

• Modular: Mix, match, & modify modules as needed to fit your game's unique requirements.
• Script like a game engine: Easily extend & adapt on top of the OpenGB Engine using TypeScript. Designed to be scripted by game developers.
• Batteries included: Provides thoroughly reviewed, tested, and documented modules to get you started quickly & allow you to customize to fit your needs.
• Secure, load-tested, & resilient: Built to withstand the chaos that games need to grow & stay online. Load testing, rate limits, captchas, strict schemas, and more are all enforced by default.
• Open-source & permissively licensed: Apache 2.0 license allows you to adapt, modify, & redistribute freely. Trust no one, own your backend.
