_Minecraft’s simple animations, effects, and mechanics are iconic, but this pack is for people who want those things to feel updated. Novella focuses on overhauling exploration, world gen, textures, audio, and animations to make them feel more like a game that came out in the 2020s. Novella is about exploring a bright, lively world and discovering all new structures, mechanics, and dimensions in a way that is accessible to everyone and not overly technical._<\/p>\n
