Hourly meteredMonthly cappedPaused = $0

Game servers. Billed by the hour.

Bare metal we rack ourselves. The meter ticks while the server runs, stops cold when it's paused, and never climbs past the monthly cap.

The meter

when the server is paused

Paused, crashed, off for the night. The meter stops with the server.

Minecraft is live. Rust and Valheim are in beta.

One title shipped on bare metal we own. New games open in tight Discord cohorts with free credits while we ramp.

Live in productionJava + Bedrock

Minecraft

Both editions, five loaders, one-click modpacks for the ones people actually run. Bring your own JARs for the rest. Running in production on bare metal we own.

Same bare metal as Minecraft. We onboard in batches so the meter and the loaders behave before the catalog opens.

Oxide loader · Wipe scheduler

Rust

Oxide loader, wipe-night scheduler wired to the meter. The beta cohort runs the same bare metal as Minecraft. Free credits while we settle the cycle.

Dedicated server · Valheim+ supported

Valheim

Dedicated server with Valheim+ on tap, world transfers in place. Same bare metal as Minecraft, smaller cohort. Free credits while we tune the loader.

Six checkboxes you shouldn't have to ask about.

Every server gets all six. No tier locks, no support-tier upsells, no asterisks. The things a real game host already owes you.

  • Hardware

    Bare metal we rack ourselves. No VM tax.

    Current-gen Ryzen, NVMe storage, no shared CPU with someone else's modded Skyrim. The boxes are ours, the rack is ours, the BGP is ours.

    Bare metal · NVMe
  • Network

    DDoS scrubbed before it reaches your box.

    Filtering at the network edge in NA and EU. Single-digit ping to most of the continent each region serves. We publish typical numbers on the status page, not marketing numbers.

    <30ms typical
  • Backups

    Hourly snapshots, 30 days of rollback.

    Restore any world to any point in the last month. Manual saves before a risky plugin update take a couple of seconds. Snapshots live in a separate region, so if our primary site disappears, your worlds do not.

    Hourly · 30d
  • Console

    Real console, real SFTP, real files.

    Working file manager, full SFTP, the actual server log. Not a sanitized iframe pretending to be a console. If you can do it on your own box, you can do it here.

    SFTP · Root logs
  • Mods

    One-click modpacks. Drag-and-drop for the rest.

    CurseForge and Modrinth installs ride with the loader. Anything outside the catalog lands in /mods like it should. Plugin policy: bring whatever you want.

  • Resize

    Resize RAM in place. The world stays.

    Bump from 6 GB to 12 GB without a fresh install. The dashboard moves the world and configs to the new tier and restarts. No SFTP juggling, no migration ticket, no fee for the privilege.

    In-place · Live

Every line on this page is on every plan. Bigger RAM tiers buy more memory, not more features.

Meter
$0.01/GB · hr

A penny per gigabyte, every hour the server is on. A 6 GB box is six cents an hour.

Hit pause and the meter stops cold. The world stays put. No card draining in the background.

Cap

The ceiling is the same number a flat monthly plan would charge. Worst case, never default.

Where the boxes live, who runs them, what happens at 3am. Honest answers, mostly. Discord is the fastest path to anything we missed.

Four operator questions. One about a fox.

Still got questions?

Drop them in the Discord. We read everything, and we would rather answer one good question than ship one more FAQ entry.
