Minecraft on Apple Silicon

In this gist, you can find the steps to run Minecraft 1.16.4 natively on Apple Silicon (AS), without needing Rosetta 2 translation of the dependencies (mainly LWJGL and related libraries).

While it's possible to use a launcher like MultiMC to have a prettier way to run the game on AS, it requires installing even more dependencies (like QT) which take time and are difficult to distribute. Therefore, I've put together a command line-based launcher tool using a couple shell & Python scripts.

To get up and running quickly, follow the steps below. Otherwise, for more detail, watch my YouTube video.

LOLCODE

LOLCODE is an esoteric programming language inspired by lolcat memes on the internet. The language was created in 2007 by Adam Lindsay, researcher at Lancaster University's Computing Department.

Here I have explained basics of LOLCODE with complete examples. However, you may have questions even after reading them because I have not included all details. For an exhaustive reference, read the official documentation.
