What makes Vintage Story different?
- Tactile Crafting: No menus. You physically knap stones and hammer metal voxels into shape.
- Deep Simulation: Crops need specific nutrients; food rots based on temperature; soil has gravity.
- Temporal Rifts: Reality itself is unstable. Manage your stability or face creatures from the Rust World.
Note: Vintage Story is under constant development. Always check the official DevLog for changes to world generation and game physics before starting a new server world.
Built for stability, tested for Seraphs. Deploy your Vintage Story server with Supercraft and enjoy 100% stable UPS even during massive mining excursions.
