What is Huckleberry?

Huckleberry is a custom-blend Minecraft client developed by Runsafe to offer a new game-play experience inside Minecraft focused on adventure and RPG aspects. Our aim is to bring more items to find, more exciting places to explore and a wide range of different things to create a more immersion-driven adventure for you. Huckleberry is fully online with a dedicated server maintained by Runsafe alongside our other online services.

Can I play Huckleberry?

At the moment, Huckleberry is operating on an invite-only base while it's in development however this may change in the future. If you're active in the Runsafe community you can ask an admin for access and if you've not got a bad track-record, you will more than likely get in!

Rules

Huckleberry runs on a single server with everyone sharing the same world therefore unlike our main server, there are some strict rules enforced. Breaking the rules to any extent will get your account removed from the access list.

• No Griefing: The idea behind the game is to adventure with your friends and co-exist even with those who are not your friends. Because of this, we've outlawed griefing! That means no trashing peoples bases in the name of "lulz", no pinching everyone's items for your own loot-lair and no annoying other people. If you cause problems you will be removed.

• Respect and Maturity: Huckleberry is aimed at a small community of people, we expect anyone joining the game to treat everyone else with the same respect and maturity levels they would expect in return. Anyone acting out of line will simply be removed rather than confronted.

• Hacking/Exploiting: While gaining an advantage of items over another player is not the aim of Huckleberry, using any kind of hack or exploit will result in a permanent ban from the game which will extend to our main Runsafe server.

Installing Huckleberry (Windows)

Getting Huckleberry on Windows is simple, navigate to the releases page (https://github.com/Runsafe/huckleberry-launcher/releases) and select the latest Windows build. Download the executable somewhere on your computer and run it. Every time you want to play Huckleberry, simply run the launcher again! The launcher will handle everything for you, from authentication to keeping your game client up-to-date each time you launch it.

Installing Huckleberry (Mac/Linux)

If you're running on Mac OSX or Linux, navigate to the releases page (https://github.com/Runsafe/huckleberry-launcher/releases) and select the latest build for your operating system. This will give you a shell script (.sh for linux, .command for Mac). Place the script somewhere (the Huckleberry client files will be stored at the scripts location) and run it.

You can run the script by double-clicking on it. If that fails you will need to give the script executable permissions by issuing the following command from your terminal:

Mac OSX:

chmod +x unix_launch.command

Linux:

chmod +x unix_launch.sh
