About this Mod

Usual Allies logo

About banner

Usual Allies is a mod that will add characters from different types of media in Minecraft, for you to befriend!

The main concept will be to be able to befriend the new faces you'll meet in your journey. Each mob will become your ally by doing something unique about them, even if they're hostile at first.

Prepare to encounter characters you may already know!

Important banner

As you may already thought, this mod looks less than what you expected, and this is why i'm looking for help. Starting this mod is a dream come true, but at the same time the work is alot and I don't want to overcharge myself. If you're someone with intermediate skills in:

  • Texturing and modeling (you can make your own characters to put in the mod!)
  • Coding (no mcreator pls)
  • Animating in Blockbench
  • Sound providing

then feel free to join up to make this together. (I'd also like being picked up by an established mod team)

This is mainly my call to people who believe in creating something great. For now the content is bare bone, but after I won't be the only person working on this, expect new characters and a whole lot more.
