What is ModFest?

ModFest is a collaborative Minecraft modding virtual event designed for modders, artists, builders, and players alike!

Teams or individuals create mods matching any of the themes in a limited time.

Then, they're invited to build showcase booths in a world along with all the other participants.

Once the showcase server opens, anyone can join to check out the submissions and vote on their favorites.

No prizes, no pressure; just mods!

Submission Restriction

At this event submission mods are expected to adhere to the ONE TOY theme.

• Mods should contain one cohesive thing (toy) - an item, an entity, a command, a deco set... - as if it comes in one "box" from a shop.
• Mods should be sweet, simple, and fun to play with - and CAN be, but don't NEED to be toy-themed (laser pistols and jetpacks are still toys!)

World Theme

Welcome to the Toybox!

Where do ideas go? Not grand ambitions, but whimsical, sparkly little ideas - daydreams and tall tales, inventions and adventures.

Many are lived, spoken, drawn, sung out as true passions - but the most frivolous and playful of all are left here, in the Toybox.

This is where they interact, clash, harmonize, and some day inspire somebody new in a whole different way - just to start over again.

The Toybox is quiet. A lone, bright wood-block castle sits assembled around an empty dollhouse. You've been inspired - what will you leave behind?
