What comes set up on a Teeworlds server

Five game types

Deathmatch, team deathmatch, capture the flag, last man standing and last team standing are all built in.

Custom maps

Build maps in the bundled editor, upload them to the maps folder and players download them when they join.

Config in plain text

Game type, score limit, time limit, rotation and passwords all live in autoexec.cfg, editable in the file manager.

Tiny footprint

A full 16 player server uses a few dozen megabytes of memory, so the smallest plan is plenty.

How to join your Teeworlds server

  1. 1

    Download Teeworlds 0.7 from teeworlds.com or install it from Steam.

  2. 2

    Start the game and press F1 to open the console.

  3. 3

    Type connect 203.0.113.24 and press Enter.

  4. 4

    If the server has a password, type password yourpassword in the console first.

Common problems

Players need the 0.7 client from teeworlds.com. Old 0.6 clients and DDraceNetwork servers are a different version.

Want the server off the public list? Set sv_register 0 in autoexec.cfg. Friends can still connect by address.

Admin from in game: set sv_rcon_password in autoexec.cfg, then press F2 in game and log in with it.

Server not responding

Make sure the server is online. Servers sleep after 4 days with nobody playing, and anyone with access can start them again from the dashboard in one click.

Use the server address

Do not use localhost, 127.0.0.1 or your own IP from a home hosting guide. Copy the exact address of the server.

No port forwarding or firewall changes

Opening ports on your router is only for hosting a server at home, so there is nothing to change to join this one. If Windows asks whether to let the game through the firewall, choose Allow.

Teeworlds server hosting, explained

Teeworlds is a free, open source 2D shooter with round little characters, grappling hooks and very short rounds. Up to 16 players swing around maps firing grenades, shotguns and the laser, and the hook makes movement the real skill. The game has a small but loyal community and a high skill ceiling, which is why people still run servers years after the last big release.

Most servers today belong to clans, friend groups and people who want a CTF or instagib style arena with their own rules. Your own server gives you a fixed address, your own rotation of stock and custom maps, and a password if you want it private. Version 0.7 added last man standing and last team standing to the classic modes, which suit small groups well.

The panel covers the server name and message of the day. Everything else lives in autoexec.cfg, which you edit in the file manager: sv_gametype, sv_maprotation, score and time limits, team balance, password and the remote console password. Custom maps made in the editor go into the maps folder, and players download them automatically when they connect. The live console shows chat, kills and joins as they happen.

Teeworlds barely uses any memory. A full 16 player server fits in 1 GB with lots of room left. 2 GB only makes sense if you keep a large custom map pool, and there is no realistic Teeworlds setup that needs 4 GB. If you want two modes at once, run two small servers instead of one big one. Sleep when empty can stop it on quiet days and wake it with one click.

Common questions

How many players can join a Teeworlds server?

Up to 16 players. Smaller maps play better with fewer, so set sv_max_clients to suit your rotation.

Is Teeworlds free?

Yes. It is free and open source on Windows, Mac and Linux, and it is also free on Steam.

Which version does the server run?

Teeworlds 0.7, the current official release. Players need a 0.7 client, which is what teeworlds.com and Steam give you.

Can I join with the DDNet client?

DDraceNetwork is a separate fork built around race maps and its own servers. For this server, use the official Teeworlds 0.7 client.

How do I change the game mode?

Set sv_gametype in autoexec.cfg to dm, tdm, ctf, lms or lts and restart the server.

Can I run custom maps?

Yes. Upload the .map files to the maps folder, add them to sv_maprotation, and players download them on join.

How do I keep the server private?

Set a password in autoexec.cfg and turn off sv_register so it stays off the public list.

How much RAM does Teeworlds need?

Almost none. 1 GB runs a full 16 player server with plenty to spare.

Is GamezServers affiliated with Teeworlds?

No. You rent and control your own dedicated Teeworlds server. GamezServers is not affiliated with the game's developer or publisher.

Can my friends and I split the cost?

Yes. At checkout choose "Me and my friends" and up to 10 people each pay their own share with their own card, on any plan length, from 3 days to a year. It is not a payment plan: nobody pays in parts over time, each friend simply pays their own share. You pay yours, send each friend their link, and the server starts straight away. Each share includes a $1 payment fee.

Can I build a custom plan?

Yes. Every game has a Build your own page: pick any amount of RAM up to 32 GB, any length from 3 days to 1 year, prepaid or a subscription, plus your server type and settings. A custom size costs 15% more per GB than the standard plans next to it.

Can I pay once instead of a subscription?

Yes. Pick Prepaid and pay once for 3 days, 30 days, 6 months or a year. Nothing renews: when the time is up the server pauses and keeps its world for 14 days. Add time or switch to a subscription from your panel any time. Short rentals cost more per day, since every server is set up from scratch.

How fast is setup, really?

Your server starts building the moment Stripe confirms payment. Most are online in under a minute, and the address and login appear on your dashboard automatically.
