The gamer group I’m part of recently launched a brand new Starbound server that uses a new, custom-curated modpack of 69 different mods that add an astonishing amount of content to the game. This includes Frackin, Arcana, Enhanced Storage, and a number of others that aim to give everyone lots of new story lines, quests, and adventures.

I wanted to post here to Lemmy and see if anyone would like to join us! Details are below.


Our group has been around since 2021. It’s 18+, and it’s run by folks in their 30’s. It’s a mature (I use that word loosely) community that spans many age brackets, but we’re all equally fun-loving, and united by our love for this amazing game, as well as a few others we explore regularly/seasonally.

Our dedicated server is open to anyone who wants to play with us, permitting they join up with our group (free, no donations). I welcome anyone who would like to play with us to pop into our Discord, and/or check out our website. Here is our information:

    Hopefully this doesn’t count as excessive self-promotion. This is actually largely a very single-player oriented game, and as such we don’t need additional players to enjoy it by any means… this said, I thought it would be really neat to connect with other Lemmy folks and bond over Starbound!

    Our group primarily uses Discord to communicate (I know, it’s a terrible platform, but it’s really hard to replace when you’re trying to keep gamers connected to one another). It’s a very active discord - we chat every single day with one another in it. It’s been a hot minute since we’ve advertised a new server, what with the country and the world being so chaotic and negative lately… but I believe distractions like Starbound can be really important!

    I hope a few folks check us out. It’s a great group of people, and we enjoy some really fun games together on a regular basis.

      Got a list of the mods used or does the client automatically download the required mods when connecting? Like others here I dropped it shortly after the 1.0 release and finishing the game rather quickly.
