Network & performance

Kickdom is designed to deliver fast, responsive, and reliable matches across the globe. Our infrastructure ensures that competitive play remains fair, even in real-time arcade matches.

Global Servers

• Matches are hosted on regional servers to minimize latency.

• Players are connected automatically to the closest server available.

• Additional regions will be added as the player base grows.

Real-Time Performance

• Kickdom uses a client-server architecture to ensure fair play.

• The server is the source of truth for match outcomes, reducing the risk of cheating.

• Matches run at a consistent tick rate for smooth and responsive gameplay.

Latency Management

• The system includes lag compensation techniques to keep gameplay fair even with varying connection quality.

• Matchmaking prioritizes players with similar latency to avoid unfair advantages.

• If latency spikes, the game will attempt to stabilize the experience without interrupting the match.

Stability & Anti-Cheat

• All critical game actions are validated server-side.

• Suspicious behaviors (packet injection, desyncs, disconnect abuse) are automatically flagged.

• Players who repeatedly exploit network issues may face penalties.

Continuous Improvement

• Performance is monitored in real time across all regions.

• Data from matches helps us optimize servers and improve future updates.

• Our goal: consistent gameplay quality for every player, everywhere.

Kickdom combines global infrastructure and advanced netcode to ensure that every match feels smooth, fair, and competitive — no matter where you play.
