SteamDeckMC Server Hosting

SteamDeckMC is a Modrinth modpack tuned for playing Minecraft Java on the Steam Deck and other handheld PCs. It includes performance optimizations for smooth frame rates and better battery life, along with controller-friendly features and interface tweaks that make the game comfortable to play without a mouse and keyboard. Gameplay stays vanilla, so handheld players can join friends on any vanilla-style world.

Run a matching server on ScalaCube and play with friends from your couch, your bed or on the go. Hosting it on a dedicated server keeps the world available around the clock for your whole group.
