Terasology Launcher is the official launcher for the open source game Terasology.
The Terasology Launcher provides easy access to the different game versions and build types.
Terasology and related projects are developed by a group of software enthusiast volunteers under the organization name MovingBlocks.
Terasology Launcher requires Java 8 and JavaFX. If you are using OpenJDK make sure you have
the JavaFX runtime libraries installed, e.g., through an extra package often named openjfx (Ubuntu) or java-openjfx (ArchLinux).
