Tiny Robot Pets

Best Minecraft Mods of April 2018

Hello, little guys! These fun fellas come courtesy of the scrumptious-sounding SupperGerrie2, and will quickly set about making your life in the world of Minecraft a much less stressful one. They come in one of five different varieties, each with a unique role: retrieving items, fighting enemies, planting and harvesting trees, creating and tending to a farm, firing arrows at mobs or dancing like Peter Garrett. Alright, so that last one isn’t real, but you can’t say you wouldn’t enjoy a Peter Garrett dancing drone.

Once their services are no longer required, a simple shift right click is all it takes to decommission the loveable mechanical buddies for good. It’s a cruel world, and we fear it will soon lead to the robot uprising.

Lantern Corps Universe

What’s your favorite superhero group of all time? If you said the Avengers Lantern Corps, then you’re absolutely right!

Trebuchet

Best Minecraft Mods of April 2018

You may not recognise the name, but you’ll have likely come across this enormous catapult apparatus at some point in your history classes. Launch TNT long distances, or jettison anyone hapless enough to climb into the sling. Fun for the whole family!

It may cost a lot of resources to be able to construct this behemoth, but it’ll make for an excellent talking point with your friends at the next box social. Worst case scenario, you can pretend that you’re about to send the Beer Baron into the stratosphere.

Dye It Yourself

Best Minecraft Mods of April 2018

For the true horticulturalists out there, here’s a mod that allows for sheep to eat flowers. That may not sound too thrilling on its own, but watch on in fascination and/or horror as the sheep’s wool changes before your very eyes to match the flower it had just eaten. What sorcery is this? Has mankind gone too far? Is there no price too steep to pay for fashion??

After this miraculous change, the sheep will drop corresponding dye as a reward for your crimes against nature. Use it however you see fit, you sicko, just don’t be shocked when PETA comes knocking at your door.

Inventory Generators

Best Minecraft Mods of April 2018

This mod does exactly as advertised: it introduces a tool that poops out RF.

Pop your items in there and a healthy amount of redstone flux will be your reward. There is a myriad of generators that will accept different offerings, and each will yield a varying bounty of RF. Recycling was never quite so much fun!

PizzaCraft

Best Minecraft Mods of April 2018

Pizza is one of the best things about life, and now it’s one of the best things about Minecraft, too. The PizzaCraft mod brings ten different types of pizza, allowing you to live out your dormant fantasies of being a chef and sharing your passion with the world.

Unfortunately, most of the folks you’ll encounter roaming the plains of this particular world are more inclined to devour your flesh rather than your delicious pizza, but as long as you’ve got a satisfied customer at the end of the day, you’ll take what you can get.

Camera Obscura

Best Minecraft Mods of April 2018

Every memory is precious, so having a means to capture those critical moments and frame them on your wall forevermore is something worth celebrating. And hey, if you combine this mod with the pizza one, you’ll be able to take food selfies! Totes topical!

The Camera Obscura mod has three different cameras at its disposal, offering alternative filters and storage capacities. Afterwards, you can hang your masterwork on the wall and revel in your own artistic splendor.

Portality

Best Minecraft Mods of April 2018

Though it may sound remarkably like a new way of finishing off an opponent in Mortal Kombat, Portality is in actual fact a mod that teleports you from one area to another in the blink of an eye. It’s incredibly useful if you need to transport items from place to place quickly, or escape from a particularly sticky situation. Even Brundlefly would approve, if only that reference wasn’t far too dated for a Minecraft article.

Globe

Best Minecraft Mods of April 2018

The world can be yours with the use of this dastardly mod, and in the palm of your hand, no less. Chuck a globe down on the floor, watch it spin and rotate maliciously, before suddenly shrinking down its immediate surroundings to minuscule proportions. The end result is a neat little snow globe for your collection. The all-consuming power of the globe doesn’t discriminate, either, as it will gobble up any living being milling about at the time.

Creature Whisperer

Best Minecraft Mods of April 2018

Nature’s beauty knows no bounds, and the final mod on today’s list brings two more wonderful creatures into the world of Minecraft. The stoic ent, virtuous and peaceful, will only attack players if provoked, possessing enough strength to send assailants flying. Meanwhile, the yeti is just a mean old prick who will mess up your day the moment he sees you, not unlike the abominable snowman from SkiFree. He can be tamed, however, which sounds like a really fantastic idea for a pet. You will name him George, and you will hug him and pet him and squeeze him.
