  • Supports streaming via Moonlight client and running games through Steam, Pegasus, or Lutris.
  • Deployable on AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, Scaleway, or Paperspace.
  • No need for a screen or virtual screen—Cloudy Pad handles everything.
  • Offers 30 hours/month for ~$15 or pay-as-you-go hourly pricing.
  • Choice of streaming servers: Sunshine or Wolf.
  • Features cost reduction tools like automated alerts, spot instances (up to 90% cheaper), and auto-shutdown of inactive instances.
  • Currently experimental—feedback, bug reports, and contributions are welcome.
