Everything you need to run
game servers at scale

Built for server owners who want power without complexity. No PHP, no bloat — just a clean modern stack.

Real-Time Console

WebSocket-powered server console with live output streaming. Send commands, monitor logs, and track events — all in real time.

[12:04:31][Server/INFO] Done (2.8s)! For help, type "help"
[12:04:45][Server/INFO] Player_1 joined the game
say Welcome to the server!
[12:04:46][Server/INFO] [Server] Welcome!

Resource Monitoring

Live CPU, RAM, and disk graphs updated in real time. Know exactly what your servers are doing at all times.

Multi-Node Support

Connect unlimited Wings daemon nodes. Spread servers across multiple machines from one central panel.

Auto Backups

Schedule automatic server backups and restore them with a single click. Never lose your world data again.

Secure by Default

JWT authentication, 2FA support, role-based access control, and auto-SSL via Let's Encrypt.

Team Management

Invite teammates with granular permission levels. Give admins, mods, and players exactly the access they need.

Docker Isolation

Each server runs in its own Docker container. Full process isolation — no server can affect another.

File Manager

Browse, edit, upload, and delete server files directly from the browser. Full SFTP access also available.

Up and running
in under 5 minutes

One command sets up Nginx, PostgreSQL, SSL certificates, and the panel. Another command on each game server installs the Wings daemon.

01

Get a server

Any Ubuntu 20.04/22.04/24.04 or Debian 11/12 VPS with root access. Minimum 1 GB RAM.

02

Run the installer

One command installs everything — Node.js, Nginx, PostgreSQL, SSL, and the panel itself.

03

Install Wings on nodes

On each game server, run the Wings installer. Connect it to your panel via the admin UI.

04

Create servers

Pick a game, allocate resources, and deploy. Your server starts in seconds.

A modern alternative

Pterodactyl is battle-tested and widely used — we respect that. Kretase takes a different approach for those who want a modern stack they can hack on.
