Host game servers on the hardware you already own.
One small agent turns the machine you already own into a managed game-hosting platform — Minecraft, Rust, Palworld, Valheim, ARK and more. No port forwarding, no cloud bills.
# Run in PowerShell — installs & pairs the agent
irm https://install.nodemesh.app/install.ps1 | iex
✓ Agent installed & connected
# Run in your terminal — installs & pairs the agent
curl -sSL https://install.nodemesh.app | sudo sh
✓ Agent installed & connected
🔒 No shell runs on your Linux host. Downloads are checksum-verified. → How we keep your hardware safe
// Features
Your hardware does the work. NodeMesh handles the hard parts.
Install the agent on any machine — gaming PC, spare laptop, home server. Your hardware runs the games; we run the control plane.
No port forwarding, no exposed IP. Player traffic routes through our edge to your machine, so your home network stays private and your real address never leaves the panel.
Minecraft, Valheim, Hytale, Rust, Palworld, Satisfactory, Project Zomboid, ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended — runtimes auto-installed, server downloaded, configured for you. See the full game list.
Each game gets depth where it counts — ARK: Survival Ascended ships with built-in breeding, taming & stat calculators covering every creature in the ASA roster, all reading your server's live settings. Its config editor even explains itself: change a multiplier and see the consequence in plain language as you type ("Rex pairs re-mate every ~1h 48m") — no guesswork, no wiki tab.

Servers restart automatically on crash and the agent reconnects after network drops — so your world stays up while you're away.
One-click updates keep your servers on the latest build — graceful stop, update, and restart, with config preserved.
Your players connect to a memorable name like yourworld.mc.nodemesh.app — no IP, no port to remember. Minecraft connects with no port at all; your machine's real IP stays hidden.
Live console streaming, an in-browser file manager, mods, and a visual config editor. Manage everything without ever touching SSH.
Mods on Valheim, too — one click installs BepInEx, the standard mod-loader, then browse Thunderstore and install plugins with their dependencies right from the Mods tab (beta). Rust gets the same one-click treatment with Oxide/uMod, re-applied automatically after every server update — then browse and install umod.org plugins from the Plugins tab, SHA-1 verified (beta).
// Setup
Three steps. No networking knowledge required.
Paste one line from your dashboard. It downloads, installs as a service, and pairs automatically.
Pick a game and player count. NodeMesh installs the runtime and the server for you — watch it live in the console.
Your connection address appears in the panel. Send it to friends — no IP, no port forwarding to explain.
// Supported games
New games ship as templates — they appear here automatically when they land.
