Proper emoji support for Minecraft

Pixelmoji adds colourful, pixel-art emoji to Minecraft using a custom font and the Glomphosche library.

Features

• Colourful pixel-art emoji
• Small, crisp textures designed for Minecraft's font renderer
• Support for emoji sequences and composed characters
• Lightweight and client-side

Limitations

• Emojis may count as multiple characters toward Minecraft's character limits.
• Emojis cannot be coloured. Do not apply colour formatting to emojis, as they may render incorrectly or look unusual.

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.21.10
• Fabric Loader
• Fabric API
• Java 21
• Glomphosche 0.2.1

Installation

1. Install Fabric for Minecraft 1.21.10.
2. Install Fabric API.
3. Install Glomphosche.
4. Place the Pixelmoji .jar in your mods folder.
5. Launch Minecraft.

Note

Pixelmoji is Client-side
This means that Pixelmoji does not need to exist on the server to run, and you can join any server with the mod enabled. (Assuming that the server allows the mod)

Development

Pixelmoji is built using Fabric Loom and Gradle.

Getting started

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/ceebug/pixelmoji.git pixelmoji

Happy coding!
