We're gamers building for gamers.

Glitch started the way most good ideas do — with frustration. We wanted to play the games we grew up with on the devices we actually use today. Our phones, our tablets, the TV in the living room. But every solution felt wrong: sketchy ROM sites, emulators that crashed, cloud services that could disappear overnight. We kept asking the same question: why can't we just stream our own games like we stream our own movies?

So we built one. What began as a weekend hack — a Raspberry Pi, a handful of ROMs, and a WebRTC prototype — turned into something real. We figured out how to stream retro games at 60fps with sub-50ms latency over a local network, and then over the internet. We added support for more platforms: NES, SNES, N64, PlayStation, Game Boy, Genesis, and beyond. We built native clients for every screen we could get our hands on.

Today, Glitch supports 14+ retro platforms and works with games you already own. It runs on your own hardware — a NAS, an old PC, a cloud VM — and streams to any device with a browser. There's no DRM, no vendor lock-in, and no one can take your library away. We're still a small, indie team, and we plan to keep it that way. Every feature we ship is something we'd want to use ourselves.
