Starground Server Hosting, Explained

What is Starground?

New to Starground?

What is Starground?

Starground is a top-down automation and dungeon crawler combo. On your home planet you mine and smelt by hand, then work through a research tree and build a factory that gathers, refines and crafts on its own. When you want a fight, travel across the solar system to dungeons full of enemies, obstacles, bosses and loot, and bring the rewards home. How you split your time is up to you, and either path moves the story along.

Automate Everything.

Unlock machines through the research tree and grow a factory that runs itself.

Crawl Dungeons.

Battle enemies and bosses, and craft modular weapons from the loot you find.

Why rent a server?

What is Starground Server Hosting?

A Starground dedicated server keeps your shared world online around the clock, so nobody has to keep their game open as the host. With Physgun you set the world seed, size, terrain and water level, cheats, explosions and the game branch in the panel, run commands from the console, and get full file access over SFTP and SSH.

Always Online.

Your factory stays up when you log off, so the group can play on their own schedules.

Full Control.

Shape a new world, pick the game branch, and add mods through your server's files.
