That said, downloads should be at the user's risk, and I take no accountability if the launchers affect your PC or Minecraft Account in an adverse way.*

## <mark style="color:yellow;">Getting Started</mark>

Origination can be installed using several launchers. In this guide, you will be provided with instructions to install the latest version of Origination on Windows through CurseForge, MultiMC, Prism Launcher, and ATLauncher.
