What is Cretania?

A Minecraft server with its own engine. Cretania runs on Minecraft 26.3 and comes with Create, flying airships, hunting, living villages, seasons and dungeons built in. It’s not a modpack — there are no mods to install.

Build machines and airships, trade at the shops, join a clan and explore a brand-new world that opened on October 5. Play from PC, Android or iPhone, all on the same server.

There’s a new version almost every day, and the game updates itself when you hit Play.

What’s new — Version 0.1.78

More stable, and the horizon is back

  • Brass controls screen: your keys by category, with animations, conflict warnings and profiles (on mobile, you place your buttons). It shows once when you join, then from Controls, pause or the tablet.
  • Tutorial book, starting with «Your first Create machine», step by step.
  • The server no longer slows down when one player hits an error: only that player is handled apart for a moment, never everyone.
  • Furnaces, hoppers and spawners work again next to very busy areas, and crops grow at their normal pace.
  • Long view distance is back: the horizon arrives even when the server is busy.
  • Graves: lost ones return their items to their owner as soon as there is room, and no more are lost.

What’s in today

  • Create, rewritten — Create, Aeronautics, Connected and their addons (Propulsion, Power Grid, nuclear, Steam ’n’ Rails…) running on the engine, with their own logic and numbers.
  • Airships 1:1 with Aeronautics — Custom physics, levitite like in Aeronautics, and you can walk and parkour across the deck. Create-style combat blocks, turrets, lances, a cockpit HUD and an arcane portal.
  • Hunting and breeding — Almost 60 wild animals by biome, in herds, with quality meat and hides to tan. Breeding, herding, a shepherd’s crook, cowbells and feeders; horses with foals, coats and markings.
  • Living villages — Villagers who cook and work the tavern, sawmill, mill and bakery with Create, with resident cards, family trees and trading. They buy your game by quality.
  • Seasons, cold and heat — One season per real week. Bundle up in winter, watch out for metal in the desert; campfires and braziers keep you warm. Sleeping doesn’t skip the night, but it doesn’t use up food.
  • World dungeons — Six themes spread across the map, with Create puzzles, custom mobs, a mini-boss and chests that spin like a slot machine. No block breaking inside.
  • The Spider King and his Nest — A countdown event: the Nest bursts out in a neighborhood, the entrance is in a basement, and the King scales to how many players take him on. His loot includes the Nest armor.
  • Staff shops — A counter with a display case and a shopkeeper; buy and sell from one window, with a self-balancing economy. They sell what you can no longer get from the Nether.
  • Hard recipes — Anything beyond base Create costs more (“Chinese torture”): arc furnace, electrolysis, steel, refining, plastics… Machines are animated in the recipe viewer.
  • Automatable resources — Copper, zinc, tin, platinum, thorium and uranium from stone and ore veins with long machine chains. Doable, but it’s a grind.
  • Combat and PvP — Per-weapon attacks; greatsword, halberd, axe, mace and flail are slower and fairer against players. A four-tier jetpack and grappling maneuver gear.
  • Voice chat and translation — Our own encrypted voice chat, nothing to install (Caps Lock to talk, V for settings). Text chat arrives translated into your language.
  • Custom menus and in-world UI — A tablet with ranks, permissions, land and airship claims — all without commands. Optional: screens floating in front of you (Spatial GUI). Mouse Tweaks-style controls and graves when you die.
  • Recipes (EMI), tooltips (Jade) and Ponder — Recipe search, an info card for whatever you’re looking at, and animated tutorials (hold W over a block).
  • Portals and dimensions — Seamless portals you can see through. At launch, the Nether and the End start closed.
  • Replays, skins and map — Flashback to record your sessions, custom skins and a map that draws airships too.
  • Mobile — Android app with touch controls drawn by the game. iPhone in beta via SideStore.

FAQ

Is it a modpack? Do I need Forge, NeoForge or Fabric?
No. Cretania is its own engine on top of Minecraft 26.3: there are no loose mods or loaders to install. The installer puts everything in your launcher.
What’s the server address?
mc.cretania.net, no port. If you had another one saved (with :25566 or from the old 1.21.1 network), switch to this one.
Is it free? Which version of Minecraft do I need?
Joining is free. It runs on Java Edition 26.3, and the installer sets up the right version for you. On Android and iPhone the app takes care of it.
Why does it tell me to update?
Everyone plays on the same version as the server. When a new one is out, the game updates and restarts by itself when you hit Play.
Why is there no Nether or End?
The new world started with both closed. What used to come only from the Nether is sold at the staff shops.
Do I need to speak Spanish?
No. Most of the community speaks Spanish, but text chat arrives translated into your language, so you can play in English.
