What is Warp Cool?

Warp is a pay-as-you-play cloud game server hosting platform designed for friend groups, casual players, and gaming communities who only play a few sessions a week and do not want to pay for idle 24/7 monthly subscriptions.

How It Works Traditional game server hosts charge fixed monthly fees regardless of how many hours the server actually runs. Warp uses an on-demand, credit-based billing model:

  1. On-Demand Spin-Up: When players are ready to play, starting a server provisions a high-performance cloud virtual machine in seconds.
  2. Pay Only While Running: Credits are deducted on an hourly basis only while the server is online.
  3. Automatic Cloud World Saves: When the gaming session ends and the server stops, world state, player inventories, mods, and configurations are automatically archived to encrypted cloud object storage.
  4. Persistent Free Subdomains: Every server receives a permanent yourserver.warp.cool address that automatically updates to point to the server whenever it boots up.

Key Features

• Smart Idle Auto-Shutdown: Automatically detects when no players have been online for a configurable threshold (e.g., 20 minutes) and stops the server to prevent wasting credits. • Multi-Game Support: Native support for Minecraft (Paper, Fabric, Forge, Purpur, Vanilla, Spigot) with GeyserMC Bedrock crossplay support, Factorio (Space Age 2.0), with Valheim, Palworld, and Rust in active development. • Web-Based Live Console & RCON: Real-time streaming server logs and interactive terminal command execution directly in the browser. • Integrated File Manager & SFTP: Web file explorer with built-in code editor for modifying server.properties, configs, and plugins, plus full SFTP credentials for bulk uploads. • Automated Cloud Backups & Instant Restore: Scheduled and on-demand snapshot backups with one-click restore and external export options (Google Drive, OneDrive). • Multi-Region Low-Latency Infrastructure: Deploy servers across European and North American cloud datacenters (Germany, Finland, US East, US West). • Fair, Transparent Billing: No hidden setup fees, no recurring commitments, and unspent credits never expire.
