Windrose
Set sail and plunder with a crew on your own Windrose server
Built for the way your community plays.
Chart a course through Windrose's swashbuckling co-op world on a dedicated server built for it. Crew up with friends, hunt for treasure, take on rival ships, and survive the high seas without fighting for slots on a public realm. Windrose is in early access, and our servers are tuned to its specific requirements: modern CPUs that support AVX2, a minimum of four physical cores, and enough memory headroom for ship physics under load. You bring the crew — we handle the hardware, the patching pipeline, and the DDoS protection.
