In 2007-2012 my friend and I created a Habbo Retro using an emulator that I had found and then custom built on. The hardest part with what I did was my emulator was so glitchy at first that the server would never stay up longer than about 35 minutes before I would discover issues with memory leaks or the emulator would shed connections randomly. We had a Windows Server 2008 with like 2GB of Ram if I remember correctly. I got really solid with maintenance hours and learning C# and C so I could privately test emulator builds then migrate live version over to the new revision. I think at the end of it's days before the company that held the copyrights started shutting all of us down, I would have about 500 users online at one time then would be down for 5 hours Sunday to run updates and maintain the VPS we had.
