I am not the author of this plugin, but I do believe that if you were to open the proxy and have it forward between two player's addresses that could work for a P2P game. Though, you start to see the problem when you realize that most player's aren't willing to port forward a port in their router. So, while proxy servers make sense for something more on the lines of a user connecting to a game server via your proxy, it is not practical to use a proxy for P2P communication. I suggest using TCP/UDP hole punching https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UDP_hole_punching
