We're excited to launch the first
[Annual Agones Survey](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSevqtMpB7BlRfOMT1KUyJLAuE_mTWBunMvg1yb0zbdgHYZduw/viewform?usp=dialog)! 📋

Agones has grown a lot since it started in 2017. It is now used by game studios of all sizes, across many cloud
providers and on-premises environments. As the project keeps evolving, we want to make sure it heads in a direction
that works for the people who use it, contribute to it, and run it in production.

## Why a survey?

Most of what we hear from the community comes through GitHub issues, Slack, and our community meetings. These are
great, but they mostly reach people who are already actively engaged with the project. A survey lets us hear from
everyone, including people who have never filed an issue or joined a meeting, but who rely on Agones every day.

## What's in the survey?

The survey is split into three short sections, and most of the questions are multiple choice:

- **About You**: what kind of organisation you are (studio, publisher, services company, independent developer)
  and how big it is.
- **Usage & Environments**: where your game is in its development, and how you run Agones today. This covers
  which environments, regions, and hosting providers you use, roughly how large your clusters are, what else you
  run alongside your game servers, and how often you upgrade Agones.
- **Feedback**: the open-ended part. Tell us which GitHub feature requests matter most to you, your biggest pain
  points, what gets in the way of contributing, and what we could do better as a project. We also want your big,
  "moonshot" ideas for the Agones ecosystem, so think big!

At the end, you can choose to leave an email address if you'd be open to a private follow-up conversation. This is
entirely optional, and anything shared in that conversation won't be made public.

## What happens with the results?

Once the survey closes, we'll publish the results in aggregate here on the Agones blog, so the whole community can see
what we learned and how it shapes our plans.

## How do I take part?

Fill out the

before it closes on **15 February 2027**.

Whether you are running Agones in production, evaluating it for your next game, or contributing code, we want to hear
from you. Please share the survey with your team, colleagues, and anyone else in your studio who works with Agones!
