Recently, my friends and I recreated our old LAN parties. Went up to a cabin in the woods, brought some cheap network switches, and had everyone install OpenRA (https://www.openra.net/, open red alert), and had a blast, even with everyone on laptops (mac/win). You can still do this in 2024 and it's worth it!
To highlight this shift, we are introducing a new website which is now fully automated with Github. The paint is still fresh, but we hope to expand it with more information about the MonoGame Foundation, like how it operates, and how to join it or contribute.

Project mention: Unity Software plans to reduce its workforce by 25%, eliminating ~1,800 jobs | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-10In general it took me less time to rewrite the code-base then implementing some of the workarounds for missing features in Unity (e.g. HTTP2) in the first place.

Project mention: Unhandled SEHException when running OpenTK project - What am I doing wrong? | /r/opengl | 2023-06-25Open a new issue on Github. Include all of this, and provide info on your OS and GPU.
Project mention: Return to Grove Street. Checking the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas engine in Unity | dev.to | 2023-11-23Fans have written the code in C# and still support the project. The project is available on the GitHub repository.
Since you're already working in C#, there's a library called SadConsole that does this. It relies on either MonoGame or SFML to actually render to the screen, though. If you're not using either of those, the source may give you some ideas on how to implement such a grid of tiles yourself. There are of course other libraries that do this, but SadConsole is the first that I could remember in C#.
NOTE:
The open source projects on this list are ordered by number of github stars.
