What is AlphacraftLauncher?

AlphacraftLauncher is a repurpose of the original Minecraft Launcher released on 29 June 2010.

It enables you to play versions from infdev (20100629) all the way to Beta 1.2_02 as they were the start and end of the original launcher.

By default, AlphacraftLauncher will download Beta 1.1_02 as it was the last version of Minecraft to be released in 2010, and is what powers 'AlphaPlace', the popular legacy Minecraft server.

You need a minimum of Java 8 or greater to run this application.
