Server for a multiplayer game

Hey!

I'm creating a little videogame with multiplayer and I'd like to learn how to make a "public" server to play with anybody.

I was thinking about Ubuntu hosting, but I'm not really sure. Maybe a raspberry pi with Ubuntu is another good option.

Thanks a lot!

Is this about the technical aspect of what the server software will be running on, or about how to make said server software? Given the mention of a Raspberry Pi, I'd imagine this is about the former.

If so, the Ubuntu export supports the ARMv7 architecture, which should run on a Raspberry Pi (e.g. running Raspbian). Depending on the performance requirements of your game's server, this may be a viable option.
