Introduction

This mod aims to add several different insects into Minecraft! This is the official remake of an older mod simply called ''Insects'', but that mod was so bad and needed so much to get done, that we decided to do a full on remake and start the mod from the ground up again!

The insects this mod adds are generally just for ambience, but some of them have special features, just to make things a bit more interesting.

 

This mod is for Forge and there will never be a Fabric port.
