SWITCH WORLDS, NOT SETTINGS.
Keep a Fabric survival run next to a Forge modpack without mixing their files. Each instance has its own version, mods and settings, with support for Vanilla, Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt.
BROWSE BEYOND ONE STORE.
Explore Modrinth, CurseForge, Feed the Beast and Technic from the launcher. Find your next pack or add a new mod to the setup you're already playing.
BRING A PACK YOU ALREADY LOVE.
Have a .mrpack file saved? Import it as its own instance. No need to track down every mod again.

What does Pumpkin do?
Pumpkin is an independent launcher for Minecraft: Java Edition. Use it to keep separate game setups, browse mods and modpacks, and launch the one you want to play.
Is it ready to use?
The beta is available now. Get the Windows, Linux (AppImage or .deb) or macOS (.dmg) installer from the download section. Builds are hosted on GitHub and aren't code-signed yet, so Windows and macOS may warn you on first launch. Windows is the primary test platform; Linux and macOS builds haven't yet been tested on real devices. The source is on GitHub too.
Can I play with my usual mods?
Pumpkin installs Vanilla, Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. Browse mods and modpacks from Modrinth, CurseForge, FTB and Technic, or import a .mrpack file. Choose the Minecraft version and loader your mods need.
How do I sign in?
Use your Microsoft account in your browser. Mojang has approved Pumpkin for sign-in.
Do I still need to own Minecraft?
Yes. You'll need Minecraft: Java Edition to play. Pumpkin is an independent launcher, not a copy of the game or an official Mojang or Microsoft product.
