Support PGCE

Keep the servers running.

PGCE is community-built and community-funded. Donations go directly toward VPS and infrastructure costs, tooling licenses, and the occasional energy drink for the people shipping builds at 2 AM.

PGCE sniper concept
Transparent. Optional. Appreciated. No pay-to-win. No kickstarter. Just players keeping the project alive because they believe in it.

Infrastructure costs

VPS hosting, MySQL, Redis, Traefik, Docker — the backend stack that keeps the API, website and future game servers online costs real money every month.

Tooling & services

Domain renewals, Steam app fee, optional tool subscriptions (e.g. Resend for transactional email, CDN if needed) and UE5 marketplace assets.

No strings attached

Donors get exactly nothing gameplay-wise. No badges, no priority, no exclusive skins. This project stays free and fair. Donate because you want it to exist.

Alternative ways to help

  • Contribute code, maps, or art to the repository
  • Spread the word in AAPG and tactical FPS communities
  • Run a dedicated server once the build is ready
  • Report bugs and give honest feedback during testing

Where the money goes

A public log of donations and expenditures will be maintained once the project has consistent income. Full transparency — no funny business.

Currently: no donations received. Every euro counts once they start coming in.
