Survival SimpleSMP Content Update #6 - Halloween Event/Competition, New Mobs, New...
SimpleSMP's Sixth (and most spooky) content update: New Mobs, Spooky Bosses, New Shop Items, & More!
It's officialy October! Obviously this means we have to get into the Halloween spirit on SimpleSMP, and I fully intend to deliver that! A new custom world, spooky mobs, bosses, brand new daily shop items, and general stability fixes are coming with this update.
Release Date: Saturday, October 10th, @ 2PM UTC.
New Custom World
Players have unearthed a new mysterious world that unleashed a ton of new mobs and powerful bosses across the overworld. This dangerous world is full of dungeons and loot that will give you a great advantage over others, but it doesn't come with some ease. The mobs hit harder, there are lakes of lava, PvP is constantly enabled, and many other challenges are presented to you in this new world. Will you take the chance and uncover what this new area has to offer...

New Dedicated Server
I am happy to announce that we have moved to a much faster and more modernized setup to host our servers! If you have played on any of our servers before, you know sometimes - especially when SMP's dropped, the server could kinda struggle with itself. We wanted a solution for this, and instead of gimping our servers we decided to try and find somewhere else to host our servers, and luckily ayan4m1 came around with a solution that helped us all! You will notice that things are running much smoother now, and it will continue to be that way now.
We haven't finished moving all the servers over yet, but do not worry - I intend to bring every server back. I also want to give a huge shoutout to @ayan4m1for not only hooking us up with a new dedicated server host, but also helping us do a vast majority of the moving and configuring of the new server. He was a...
Survival SimpleSMP Content Update #5 - 1.16.2, Bugfixes, & Stability!
SimpleSMP's Fifth content update: 1.16.2, Bugfixing, & Stability!
Welcome to SimpleSMP's fifth update! This update mainly focuses on getting us super stable, on top of fixing a TON of bugs that have popped up since the start of the server. We will also be releasing 1.16.2, so expect whatever new features come with that! We are also updating a slew of our plugins, so there will be features to look forward to from them also.
Release Date: Friday, Sept 11th, @ 2PM UTC.
General Stability
When we first launched, I didn't expect the server not to be completely up to the task of hosting SMP. I did a handful of stress tests, so it was fairly odd - though my updates also changed things around too. Luckily, in the past month we've had the amazing opportunity to move to a much better dedicated server. We have officially done the move for SMP, so it should run much smoother now. We are also...
Survival SimpleSMP Content Update #4 - Outposts, Dungeon, Skills & More!
SimpleSMP's Fourth & Largest Content Update - Outposts, Dungeons, Skills & More!
Welcome to SimpleSMP's fourth and largest update! After reading over the survey that was posted, I think I have a better understanding of what direction you all want to see the server go into. This update will expand into those areas, and hopefully will give you guys more things to enjoy!
If you haven't already, please take the time to take this survey about our SMP server. :)
Release Date: 8th of August, 2020 3PM UTC
Elite Mobs Dungeon
We are releasing our first public dungeon! Welcome to the sewers, a sprawling maze full of twists and turns, dangerous elite mob bosses, and custom loot. As you venture further and further down, things will get riskier - but the rewards are way better. Enjoy new bosses, challenges, mobs, rewards, and more - but keep your eye...

Metropolis
Metropolis
Welcome to our new city-building world on Blocktopia! We’ve had some notable events unfold in the recent weeks, but they are in no means setbacks. With the existing SimCity crowded and cluttered, the community has been working hard to bring you a new world which is distinct from any we’ve had before. This is a clean slate for Blocktopia, with a bright future ahead!
We’re going to be doing things a bit differently here. Instead of individual regions, people will build as part of several pre-organised, themed areas. This way, people are working together to make bigger and better creations, and we have less chance of suffering from mission creep. When we set out to create SimCity, we intended for it to be a collaborative world, and yet we strayed from that considerably. Today...
Survival SimpleSMP Content Update #3 - The End, Exploration, EliteMobs, & More!
SimpleSMP's Third Content Update - Exploration & PvP!
Welcome to SimpleSMP's third content update! This update comes with a big announcement - the end is officially open! Players will now be able to access the end, and all the features that come with it! On top of this, were bringing in a couple new features - and a handful of more balancing and bug fixes.
Release Date: Monday, July 27th, @ 5PM GMT
The End
Welcome to the end! It is finally open for everyone to enjoy, and that means all portals will soon be active and working. Along with this, there will be coordinates announced on our discord for the public portal on the update release, so make sure you join it!
The End on our server isn't exactly your typical end, and you will find some things that are quite different. First of all, everyone will find themselves facing off a dragon...
Survival SimpleSMP Content Update #2 - Shops, Fishing, Sorting, & More!
SimpleSMP's Second Content Update!
Hello again! There is another update coming to SimpleSMP, and I'm excited to tell you all about it! With this new update comes some more things to spend your money on, new player shops areas, some more balancing and bug fixes, and more! Please note that some of these changes were already implemented, but most of the core ones will be on the release date.
Release Date: July 17th, 2PM EST
New Player Shops
I quite honestly didn't expect player shops to be so popular. The spawn shops are already essentially filled up, and it seems a lot of players want more shop areas. The new shop are will be accessible on release day via /warp PlayerShops, and the /warps GUI. The bottom floor features two sized shops, small and medium - and the top floor is reserved for large shops. You can easily get between the two via the elevators every few shops. You will also notice that these shops...
Survival SimpleSMP Content Update #1
SimpleSMP's first Content Update!
Hello everyone! I hope you are all enjoying the new server as much as I'm enjoying playing on it / watching you all play. I feel like the launch was a fairly smooth experience, and I'm super happy with the way things turned out in the past few days since release. I do know there were some things players noticed, like small bugs, and on top of that - some players suggested a few things be added. I hear everyone loud and clear, and I want to try my best at working with players to build up the true experience they want overtime. Please keep in mind that with any update that changes a handful of things majorly, new bugs may appear, or old bugs that were fixed before might pop up again. If that is the case, please make sure you go to https://bugs.escaperestart.com and report them there so I can fix them!

Survival Simple SMP Teaser / Info Thread
After working through a pandemic and going through some weird patches of times, we are finally excited to announce the release of Simple SMP.
Simple SMP is not your average vanilla Minecraft server, but it strives to keep the core values of it in mind - so that players do get refreshing, new experiences, but also get to play the Minecraft they all know and love. We didn't want to set out and make a store, or a huge lorebook, and throw players in expecting them to read everything and understand every bit of the world - this time we set out to create a space where players can build up, work together, and create their own stories and lore of the world.
Here are some features you can look forward to on release. Keep in mind that some more topics may be explained better / more in-depth in their respective threads on the SimpleSMP Forum which will be releasing shortly also...
Other Welcome to EscapeRestarts' new MC spawn, & Bedrock Integration
Welcome to EscapeRestart's New Lobby!
I have been silently working on something behind the scenes for quite some time and I'm finally ready to release it! New secrets, features, challenges, ways to pass time, & more are coming in this update. There are also of course - a ton of bug fixes! Here are some highlights of the new lobby. We have been using our current lobby for a long time now, and I figured it'd be a nice breath of fresh air to release something new to join to.
Bedrock Integration
We are testing a new proxy that allows users who are on bedrock editions (Windows 10, Switch, Mobile, Xbox, & PS4) to join our servers. Please keep in mind this is experimental, and anyone who joins with their bedrock clients may experience some glitches.
What this means is that bedrock users can fully enjoy our servers, and it can also open up our servers to a lot more people.
If you are curious about trying this out, all you...

Minecraft One Block Skyblock
Welcome to a new and exciting take on Skyblock!
People were asking around in the discord for an event, so I decided to quickly start up a server so people have something to play while I'm still working on SimpleSMP.
If you don't know what One Block Skyblock is, go ahead and check out the video linked below for some more details on it.
Now, all that I ask is for everyone to follow our community rules, including not being a dick. If you break any of these rules, you will be banned just like any server.
Also, keep in mind this will be shutdown once SimpleSMP is released.
There is only one island, and this doesn't work on spigot servers so that isn't possible to setup - you all have to work together
The server is on 1.15.2, you can join by entering lobby.escaperestart.com:25593 in your servers :)

Let's jump right into whats new in this new update for Blocktopia ?

Ditching FAWE
FAWE was buggy. We had constant problems with it, there was always a new glitch waiting around the corner that would somehow limit a user in some way. I've finally decided to do away with FAWE and replace with with Async World-Edit. It...
Survival Coming Soon: Simple SMP - A New Simplistic Take (+ More Surprises!)
Welcome to Simple SMP
I'm proud to finally announce the next iteration of EscapeRestart's SMP Server, one that doesn't follow any of our past servers, keeps it simple, but unique & fun.
The goal of this server is simple (heh), I saw how much the users of EscapeRestart enjoyed the Temp SMP I ran a while back. People regularly played it despite it being fairly barebones, and in my eyes, it was a pretty good server and held up well for only being temporary. I saw a lot of players talking about how much they enjoyed the server, so I decided to take a stab at something a little more feature-filled, but still stuck to the point of Minecraft. I also have some exciting news to announce on top of this...
Collaboration with r/LilPeep Discord
Admittedly, EscapeRestarts player base isn't as big as it used to be. I have been aware of this for quite a while, but luckily we still have dedicated players (especially on our...
