Basically a re-invention of the early 2000's Hamachi app? I think I might have used Hamachi once or twice to play a network version of Age of Empires over_the_internet long before this was a standard function in games :)

I just Ducked for Hamachi VPN and it still exists, see https://vpn.net

I believe Hamachi was mainly a level 2 VPN, perfect for transporting IPX, which was really mainstream for LAN games of the 90s.

This seems to handle layer 2/3 since they mention support for TUN/Tap interfaces, but I guess 99% of people will just create IP tunnels, layer 2 is not the hot thing anymore.

Also, Hamachi was not decentralized from what I remember.

What is presented here reminds me a lot of n2n.

Some other apps in this category can also do layer 2, like tinc. It does layer 3 by default but you can switch it.

What would you use for layer 2 transport today(in spefific for playing ild games)?

Is that a bad thing?

Yeah; they slowly de-feature and increase the price of everything they acquire.
