in 2020 to Riot Games.
12 years ago, I created Hypixel.
Today, I'm branching out to create a new, entirely self-funded game studio, starting with a $4 million USD budget.
My focus is on producing fun games and putting together a talented, dedicated, lean team. The financial return of our debut game
@tommyinnit
OK Tommy, if you reach 15mil subs you get a unique Hypixel custom rank AND a real life Hypixel Mystery Box AND you get to pick a charity that gets 50,000$
We just hit 18,000,000 unique players on the Hypixel Minecraft server!
That means about 52% of people who bought Minecraft java edition manually typed the address and logged on the server😮
Thank you all for this opportunity, I am still working hard like day 1. Love you all ❤️

This week also marks the 8th anniversary of the server, happy “birthday” everyone!
We made it to 100k peak players before some stuff exploded, gg everyone!
We can hold about 92k stable but couldn't resist the 100k meme and pushed as far as we could with current hardware.
Thanks all! My twitter feed is full of 100k screenshots, hype!
60,453 peak players today, gg
Feeling good, giving away $2500 worth of store credit (5 winners $500 each), just tweet me your username and make sure you follow so I can DM you.

Would you guys be interested in a video explaining how Hypixel started? And how World of Warcraft raiding made it all possible? I think that could be a first fun casual video to produce on my free(limited) time
@Ninja
We made a server that got 16 million unique users and peaked at 76k concurrent users this weekend.
Built a team of over 70+ people across the world and was able to make our own game

It allows creators of all fields to try new things and be supported by the community.

@Technothepig
you can keep the PIG rank on our server as long as you upload at least 1 video a week for the whole summer (doesn't need to be Hypixel related), if you achieve consistency, the rank will become permanent

I’m afraid techno is now the only one in possession of the sacred book... I must confess, I signed it and bundled it with a Pig mask.. it might have created some voodoo magic in the process
*Hypixel Server plans for 2020*
We will be doing massive investments towards anti-cheat, tools and moderation in an effort to combat cheating.
Starting today, we are opening 3 full-time anti-cheat devs positions that will work for years to come. If need be, we will hire more.
Congratulation to my best friend

! I’m sure it has been emotionally overwhelming for you today and I simply want to say I love you man!
Flight attendant: Is there a doctor on this flight?
Dad: *nudging me* that should've been you
Me: Not now Dad
Dad: Not asking for a Hytale blog post, are they?
Me: Dad, there's a medical emergency happening right now
Dad: Go and see if posting blog posts helps
The server is having some major network issues, the team been working on for the past few hours. I just rushed back and will be helping as well, just please be patient.
Dear
@FortniteGame
I love you but...
You're successfully killing your own game and losing players because you're too stubborn to change the Mech's in a way that actually makes them fair.
Listen to the community, please 🙏

I agree with Fortnite Creators: It's a game genre.
We, Hypixel, originally created many new game genres over the years, such as The Pit (2018) and The Walls (2012), in Minecraft.
I enjoy seeing people use these game genres however they see fit. Over the years, the names have
We are currently experiencing heavy load and I just now ordered 100+ dedicated server machines to improve performances and increase playercount.
I wish we could scale on the cloud but unfortunately that’s not how it works on Minecraft!
Thanks all, take care of yourselves.
I’ll be opening a lot of job positions early 2020 for the Hypixel MC server to support more update, anticheat improvements, new features and much more.
I mean, the server went from 25k peak to 90k and we didn’t grow the team, it’s been quite challenging!
Founded Hypixel from a small 1br apartment, had no job and dropped college as soon as I made my first $500 from YouTube ads from redstone map trailers. Then, saved up to pay developers for the server to be built.
Sending out the first Newsletter email for Hytale, it will also confirm your Beta application.
Sorry for the delay in sending out the confirmation emails - unveil day was pretty crazy and we got way more sign-ups than predicted!
