Under the hood

Server
Fabric server managed through Pelican Panel. A Velocity proxy connects the main and Nuzlocke servers.
Custom mods
A Java mod for the weekly adventure world and the Nuzlocke seasons, plus small fixes for mods that didn’t get along.
Modpack
One download for Prism Launcher. Updates run through packwiz and install automatically on the next launch, from my own download mirror.
Website
A Python generator rebuilds stats, Pokédex, guilds, leaderboards and player profiles from the game files every two minutes. Plus a 3D map of the world made with BlueMap.
Community
Custom Discord bot for whitelist requests, tickets, /stats and the changelog, plus a stream overlay and Twitch drops.
Operations
Caddy as the reverse proxy with CrowdSec in front, and Uptime Kuma pushes outage alerts to my phone.

393 Commits in the first six weeks. Free to play, with a whitelist.
