How it works
From design to the PLAY button,
in three steps.
1
Design
Design your launcher
Start from a template, then change the background, the logo and the PLAY button color. The same design styles both the launcher and the installer.
2
Publishing
Publish your game or modpack
Drop in your modpack folder. Lanceur uploads only the files that changed, then builds the Windows, macOS and Linux versions.
3
Sharing
Share your download page
One link, lanceur.app/d/valcrete, and your players install your launcher in one click, on Windows, macOS or Linux.
Then
Updates arrive on their own.
Publish the next version: your players get it the next time they launch, with nothing to reinstall.
- Published to the stable channel
- Gradual rollout, from 10% to 100% of players
- Rolls back to the previous version if crashes increase
Features
Everything around
the PLAY button.
The basics are free, forever. A subscription adds power as your server grows. No ads, ever, in your launcher.
Freefor everyoneAdvancedwith a subscription
Free
Launcher, installer and page
Your project.lanceur.app page offers the right installer: Windows, macOS or Linux.
Free
Minecraft, ready to play
Forge, NeoForge, Fabric or Quilt. The right Java installs itself, and your modpack imports from a single file.
Advanced
Stats and crashes
Installs, players online, crashes grouped by cause: see what’s happening, hour by hour.
Advanced
Controlled updates
Channels, gradual rollouts, A/B tests. If crashes climb, Lanceur rolls back to the previous version on its own.
Advanced
Full global CDN
Every player downloads from the nearest location. Only changed files are re-sent.
Advanced
Player sign-in
Microsoft and Minecraft, Discord or email. You know who’s playing.
Advanced
Binary signing
Installers signed in your name: fewer warnings, more installs.
Advanced
Custom domain
Your download page on your own address, HTTPS certificate included.
Advanced
Team and roles
Devs, designers, moderators: everyone gets a role, every action is logged.
Advanced
API, SDK and CLI
Publish from your pipeline, read your stats through the API, automate the rest.
Free
Hosting included
A small quota on our CDN serves your first players. The full global CDN takes over as you grow.
Why Lanceur
Tinker, outsource,
or launch.
Today you either fork an open-source project you have to maintain, or pay a freelancer once. Neither option keeps up with your server over time.

FAQ
Common
questions.
Another question? Just reply to the confirmation email.
Is it really free?
Building a basic launcher and installer is free, with a small quota on our CDN. Advanced features (stats, full CDN, gradual rollouts, player sign-in, signing, custom domain, team) require a subscription. Pricing will be set after the beta.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. Everything happens in the visual editor and the dashboard. If you do code, the API, SDK and CLI are there to automate your releases.
Which games does it support?
Modded Minecraft servers first: Forge, NeoForge, Fabric, Quilt and modpacks, with Java managed automatically. Indie games and software are supported too, and more games are coming soon.
When does the beta launch?
No date yet. People on the waitlist are invited first, in waves, by email. You only get announcements that matter.
What do you do with my email?
We keep your email and your project’s type and size, only to let you know about the beta. Unsubscribe any time. Details in the privacy policy.
