MATTICUS NETWORK — a haunted carnival that never closes.
We've been building this for months, and it's finally ready for people.
THE HAUNTED CARNIVAL
The heart of the server, and it's enormous. Rides, a full food court, midway games, quests, crypts, a pumpkin patch, a graveyard, and a haunted forest that will genuinely get you lost.
Two things we're especially proud of:
- Chicken jockey battles: back a fighter, they go at it, you collect
- The Joust: zombies on zombie horses, full tilt, exactly as stupid and great as it sounds
Every game pays out in Matticus Coins. Every prize is a custom head you keep forever.
PROTECT MATT
A custom minigame that exists nowhere else. You and your team defend one very unlucky guy from waves of things trying to kill him. Multiple arenas — pirate ship, gold mine, gladiator pit — with leaderboards across all of them. We wrote every line of it.
SURVIVAL GAMES
Battle royale on a map of a replica of midtown Manhattan.
SURVIVAL WORLDS
- Vanilla SMP with land claims
- Hardcore, resets monthly — Season One went live September 1st. Jump in now and you're at the actual start, not joining someone else's month.
CREATIVE
Claim a plot instantly. Somewhere to build, and somewhere to display every prize you've won in the carnival.
HOTEL & CASINO
Working slot machines, blackjack, video poker, and HiLo, all coded by us.
To be extremely clear: you play with coins you earn in-game. There is no way to buy them with real money, ever. Nothing in our store affects gameplay in any way - cosmetics only, and it exists to help cover hosting.
WHAT KIND OF SERVER THIS IS
Family-friendly and actually moderated. Chat is kept clean and it stays that way. If you're looking for somewhere you can play with your kid, or just somewhere that isn't exhausting, that's deliberate here.
Proximity voice chat network-wide via Simple Voice Chat. Optional, but the carnival is a lot funnier with it on.
We own the hardware. Self-hosted on dedicated equipment, running 24/7, with backups. This server doesn't depend on a host we might stop paying for.
THE HONEST PITCH
This is a new server. Right now it is quiet. That's the offer, not a disclaimer.
Everything here was designed and coded by us, and it's going to keep growing for years. Getting in now means your name is on the earliest leaderboards. You get a plot wherever you want it. You're in Hardcore Season One instead of Season Fourteen. And when you tell us something's broken or missing, we'll actually read it and work on it, usually that week.
