Join our Community!
No matter what you do, it matters that you do it.
We believe you don't need to be an artist to be artistic, and you don't need to be an expert to belong here - you just need a willingness to try!
Co-Forge is built on the idea that good communities thrive when people bring different skills, perspectives, and levels of expertise. Story-tellers, coders, builders, planners, testers, critics, and observers all play a valued role. We love to teach and learn, and to uncover skills you may not know you had. With Hytale especially, we are excited to give players every tool we can to tell their stories, experiment, and collaborate in ways that are finally meaningful instead of restrictive. We'd love to build alongside you!
Our approach is shaped by nearly a decade of running player-driven servers, focused on creativity, accessibility, and respect for our players' time. Our Minecraft server features many quality-of-life enhancements to eliminate tedium and empower players to unleash their creativity.
While players benefitted from these upgrades, as event runners, we still felt shackled. We've hosted large-scale events and puzzle games to collaborative or competitive builds, always pushing the limits of the game. Hytale is exciting because it not just meets our ambitions, but has handed us revolutionary tools to accomplish it.
We can't wait to show you what we're capable of! Nothing is more fun than watching others having fun. Visit our Projects page for our current and future plans!
Outside of the game itself, we also maintain an active Discord server with its own events!
We like to run Steam days, where you find a low- or no-hour game to stream, or simply watch along. It's a great way to dust off a large library or find something new.
We also share pet pictures, food pics and recipes, music, crafts, and other hobbies. We've offered everything from pixel art classes in the past (and probably many more in the future after launch) to terraforming and basic building tutorials. With Hytale's in-game cinema, we may have movie or tv show events either in-game or on Discord.
Community doesn't have to stop just because you log out of the game!
We have never been pay-to-win and don't intend to start with Hytale. Anything offered through our shop can be earned in-game, without jumping through 20 hoops (unless that's the event!) and grinding for 100 hours. Playing the server should not be a full-time job, and we support those with full-time jobs, children, school obligations, and real-world responsibilities.
Balance has always been a priority and is always community-tested and adjusted through open discussion. We don't just listen to feedback, we actively ask for it.
Whether it's progrssion, rewards, events, or even shop pricing, the goal is to build something with the community, not just for it!
Every player matters here.
That means YOU!
