Minecraft server hosting without the tech headache. Sign in, name your world, share the address with friends — that's the whole setup.
Below are the actual screens, at the size you'll see them. No diagrams of the diagram — these are the buttons.
One tap. Same Google account your friends already use — no new password to remember.
That's the only decision. Region, size, and version come pre-picked — tweak if you want.
Friends paste this into regular Minecraft → Add Server. No installs, no port forwarding, no IP wrangling.
Pick a flavor — Paper, Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, or Quilt. Search for any mod by name. Your friend on Switch joins the same address.
Any mod from Modrinth, in one click.
Java and Bedrock crossplay, built in. Your friends don’t need a computer — we connect their console, phone, or tablet for you, so everyone joins with one address.
I built this because spinning up a server for three friends shouldn't feel like a job interview.
Last winter I tried to host a Minecraft world for my niece and three of her friends. By Sunday night I had a Discord call open, six browser tabs about port forwarding, and a kid in tears because the world didn't save. The thing I wanted didn't exist — so I made it.
Pixly is that thing. Sign in, name a world, share the address. No DNS, no Docker, no eight-page tutorial. It sleeps when nobody's around, so you only pay for the hours you and your people are actually playing — because that's the part I'd want to pay for, and nothing else.
If you try it and anything annoys you, tell me. I read every message. There's no support team — it's just me, the sprite, and a small server room of lanterns.
Top up once, then play. The clock starts the moment a friend joins and stops the second the last one leaves — sleeping hours are on us.
An empty world dozes off after 5 minutes. The meter stops the same second.
Friend hits join, world wakes up. Same address, same save, no toggle.
Charged by the minute, totted up by the hour. No surprise math, no sneaky add-ons.
If it isn't here, email us — we actually reply.
Spin up your private Minecraft server, send your friends the address, and go mine something. We'll keep the lights on.
