Welcome to Spawn Island!

Located at spawn in the overworld, this large island is decorated with a wide spectrum of humble builds upon custom terrain.

Spawn Island was built in creative mode prior to the launch of this server with the help of our wonderful community affiliates.

We terraformed the entire island!

Click and drag on the image below! This is an interactive screenshot that provides a glimpse into the past.

Spawn Island encompasses what used to be the spawn chunks prior to their removal from the game, a region of the world centered at the origin (0, 0). These chunks were kept off-limits to keep the server performant. Now, it’s just to encourage players to spread out.

To achieve this, Spawn Island puts you in adventure mode. You can tunnel beneath Spawn Island and mine resources, but you can't break or place blocks within it, except in the few places where we provide starter farms.

Come visit Spawn Island and explore its beauty firsthand! We hope to provide inspiration with our showcase of collaboration.

Technical notes

  • The adventure mode region spans the XZ plane from -192 to 208, starting at Y level 32.

  • Entities arriving from the End are teleported to (216, -216) after arriving at (0, 0) for 1 tick. Velocity is preserved.

  • Mob spawns are limited by the two biomes present: Mushroom Fields (Y level 32 to build limit) and Deep Dark below that.
