The Skycade network was established over 6 years ago with the mindset of an enjoyable community-focused experience with little pay-to-win items.
We support 5+ regularly updated game modes: Factions (KitMap and Cannoning included!), Skyblock, KitPvP, SMP and Creative.

With the help from our volunteer staff team and developers, the network still stands today with regular players enjoying the tight-knit community we try to sustain.

Not sure on how to connect?
We only support the Java Edition of Minecraft (right now), with the versions between 1.8 and 1.16.5.
The IP is: play.skycade.net (copy).

Content creators (video creators, streamers, ...) who want to regularly play on our server can apply to be given the coveted MEDIA rank in-game, and on our 27k+ members Discord.
This rank comes with many special perks to help with content creation here on the network.

The program is handled directly by the management team at Skycade.

These requirements do not define if a creator will be accepted onto or denied from the program.
We may deny an application for any reason.

We accept all major content platforms such as YouTube and Twitch, as well as smaller platforms on a case by case basis.
Group channels are also welcome!

• An active channel with regular uploads/streams.

Following

• 1,000+ subscribers (or equivalent) on Minecraft focused channels.
• 5,000+ subscribers (or equivalent) on other channels.

Viewership

• (For videos) Average 1,000+ views on a piece of content within a week of publishing.
• (For streams) Average 15+ concurrent viewers.

As a content creator on Skycade, you'll receive special permissions on the network to help with content creation.
Below is not a complete list of what the MEDIA rank gives.

• A bright blue chat prefix.
• Chat messages will be in bright blue to stand out.
• Permanent /fly on applicable game modes.
• A hoisted (listed on sidebar) role on our Discord server.
• Discord's highest quality voice channels for group recordings.
• Other permissions can be given on request.

For larger content creators, you'll have a chance to receive monetary return!

• Your own chat suffix package on our store.
• A unique store referral link to refer viewers to.
• Receive a monthly percent of sales from those sources.

Creators in the program should try and keep up their channels to the point where it stays above the requirements they were accepted with. Creators who regularly go below the requirements may or may not be removed from the program. We're not strict about it.

We ask that creators upload/stream at least one piece of content on our network every month.

Creators still must abide by our rules.
There is an exception to this, where creators are allowed to advertise their channel in chat: as long as it is not a bother to other players.

You can apply by emailing [email protected]kycade.net (copy).
Please ensure that you include at least the following:

• The link to the content channel.
• Your in-game username.
• A description of what you'd like to do on our network.

Feel free to send any program related questions to the email address!

We strive to reply with a response within 3 business days. This may vary on holidays.

What can a creator be removed for?
We may remove any creator for any reason, especially if a creator causes harm for the network and the community.
Creators should try and keep their channels to the point where it is above the requirements they were accepted with. We will not be actively removing creators if they go slightly below.

Where can I get some help with the program?
Please email [email protected] with any questions relating to the program.
We will try and reply within 3 business days. This may vary on holidays.

Can I record on Skycade without being in the program?
Yes! It is not required for you to be in the program. The program is here for creators who want help with content creation on the network.
If you still want help, but you do not want to be in the program, please contact [email protected]

Do you do sponsorships for creators?
Yes, we do. Creators do not need to be in the program, either!
If you're a creator and you'd like to try for a sponsorship, please contact [email protected]
Please keep in mind that this won't be available for every creator out there. Acceptance is on a case by case basis.
As a general guide, this is suitable for creators with a large following (30,000+).

I saw a creator break the rules! What do I do?
Please collect sufficient evidence of the offense, and report to [email protected] or our reports system.
We may not share information on the actions we take.

I have a creator I think would be suitable for Skycade. What can I do?
Please contact [email protected] and link any creators (link their content channels) you think would be suitable for Skycade and the community overall.
We'll contact them if we think so, too!

I think something can change here. What can I do?
