Six scenes from one fixed-seed world (seed 8675309): a plains village among savanna hills, sunset over it and the river, moonrise over its lit square, a crimson forest with a zombified piglin, tropical fish over a warm-ocean coral reef, and survival at dusk with a zombie and the full HUD. Plus Horizon's own title, Singleplayer, Video options and pause screens. Captured with horizon-ctl screenshot from the offscreen client (fullscreen 2560x1286 on the Mac mini, default graphics settings, GUI scale Auto), scenes cropped to 16:9 and menus to 16:10 (left-aligned) and scaled to the old sizes (1600x900, 1280x800). The scene sources are JPEGs in docs/media again, the names scripts/assets.mjs already reads; the README's WebP copies are the rebuilt website media. Alt texts and LEGAL.md follow the new pictures. The launcher screenshots are unchanged: the Mac mini's session is locked, so no window capture works. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The website's assets and their licences
Every file the site serves, where it comes from and the terms it is used under. The build
copies this file to /LEGAL.md on the site.
Horizon is not an official Minecraft product. It is not approved by or associated with Mojang or Microsoft. Minecraft is a trademark of Mojang Synergies AB.
Code
| File | Source | Licence |
|---|---|---|
src/*.html, src/*.css, src/*.js, build.mjs, serve.mjs, scripts/*, Caddyfile, Dockerfile |
Written for this site | MIT, as the rest of Horizon (LICENSE) |
The site loads no third-party code at runtime: no frameworks, CDNs, analytics, trackers or
cookies. The only requests to other hosts are the browser's calls to api.github.com
(releases and patch notes) and raw.githubusercontent.com (launcher/links.json), both on Horizon's own repository.
Fonts
| File | Source | Licence |
|---|---|---|
public/fonts/Geist-Regular.woff2, Geist-Medium.woff2, Geist-SemiBold.woff2, GeistMono-Regular.woff2 |
Geist and Geist Mono, from crates/horizon-theme/fonts (converted from TTF to WOFF2) |
SIL Open Font License 1.1, shipped as public/fonts/OFL-Geist.txt |
The fonts are self-hosted; nothing is fetched from a font service.
Icons and the social preview
| File | Source | Licence |
|---|---|---|
public/favicon.svg, public/favicon-32.png, public/apple-touch-icon.png |
Horizon's mark, docs/media/brand/icon.svg (an original drawing: an H whose crossbar is the horizon), rendered by cargo run -p xtask -- icons |
MIT, Horizon's original work |
public/og.png |
Rendered by scripts/shots.mjs from public/og.html: the mark, a headline and the faint wordmark, in Geist |
MIT for the layout; the fonts as listed here |
No Minecraft logo or wordmark appears anywhere on the site, in images or as text styling. GitHub and Discord appear only as plain text links, without their logos.
No hero image
The page opens on type, not a photograph. The launcher's old background
(launcher/assets/background.jpg, from backgrounds.supply, licence never confirmed) is gone from
the repository, so the launcher's screenshots no longer show it.
Screenshots
All captured in Horizon's Rust client, with vanilla resources prepared from the maintainer's
own copy of Minecraft: Java Edition 26.3, at the default graphics settings and with no mods or shaders
(the game and menus last captured on 2026-10-17). Converted to WebP at 1600 and 800 pixels wide
by scripts/assets.mjs.

Horizon's interface in these images is Horizon's original work (MIT). The block, mob and item textures and the HUD sprites drawn in them belong to Mojang and Microsoft; they are shown as screenshots of the game, as the Minecraft Usage Guidelines allow for fan websites about the game, with the disclaimer they require. The site offers no game files: players need their own legally obtained copy of Minecraft: Java Edition.
