The only rule

If you die,
you're banned.

Forever. That's it. Everything else on Degree SMP is up to you.

Why it's different

Survival that actually means something

x1

One life

Hardcore for real. When you die, you're banned on every account. No respawn, no alts.

0

No mobs

Nothing spawns. No zombies, no cows, no villagers. Food and gear are things you earn, trade or fight for.

1%

Rare ore

Only about 1 in 100 ore veins survive. Diamonds are rarer still. A stack of iron makes you rich.

12M

The world breaks

Go far enough and the world stops making sense. Some people go looking for what's out there.

Now playing · Arc II
The Kingdom Arc

Arc I was about surviving. Arc II is about ruling. Found a kingdom, bring your friends, and get funded by the Keeper with loot and Crowns.

The first 10 kingdoms get funded

  3. Found itStand where your capital will be and type /kingdom create <name>
  4. Bring your people/kingdom invite <player>, and they type /kingdom join <name>
  5. Set your treasury chestPlace a chest, look at it, type /kingdom setchest. Funding gets delivered there.
  6. Ask the KeeperMessage TheSoapMaster in game or on Discord with your kingdom name and what you need.

What the Keeper can send you

Funding comes from the Keeper's Vault: real loot, delivered to your chest, plus Crowns, the kingdom currency. Spend Crowns at the Keeper's Market with /kingdom shop, or send them to other kingdoms with /kingdom pay.

Iron64 iron, 32 coal
Gold32 gold ingots
Diamond16 diamonds
Netherite2 netherite ingots

Still hardcore

Kingdoms don't protect land and don't stop PvP. You can break and build anything, so guard what's yours. If your ruler dies, an officer takes the crown. If everyone dies, your kingdom falls and its Crowns go back to the Keeper.

THE EDGE
OF THE WORLD

Minecraft says the world ends at thirty million blocks. On Degree SMP it doesn't. Nobody who went all the way has explained what they saw.

12,000,000

The ground stops agreeing with itself. Blocks that aren't there. Players that aren't players.

30,000,000

Past the border there's somewhere else. People call it the Beyond.

???

And at the very end, Paradise. Can you make it that far?

Questions

FAQ

Is it free?

Yes. Just join.

Java or Bedrock?

Both. Java uses Degree.exaroton.me:24415. Bedrock uses Degree.exaroton.me with port 24415 in the port box.

Can I get unbanned after I die?

No. The only way back is if another player brings you back with a Revive Totem, and those are very rare.

Why are there no mobs?

It's part of the challenge. No farms, no easy food, no mob drops. Everything you have, you worked or traded for.

How do I get funded for my kingdom?

Found a kingdom with /kingdom create, set a treasury chest with /kingdom setchest, then message TheSoapMaster in game or on Discord. The first 10 kingdoms get funded.

Are there land claims?

No. It's vanilla where it counts: PvP is on and anyone can break or build anything. Protect your stuff the old-fashioned way.

Who runs the server?

TheSoapMaster, also known as the Keeper. Questions, reports or anything else: ask on the Discord.
