What does GlyphVM add?

🔮 GlyphVM – Visual Magic Programming for Minecraft

✅ NOW ON MODRINTH – beta 0.4.0 available for download


Draw spells with pixels. No code. Just glyphs and arrows.
GlyphVM turns Minecraft into a visual programming environment. You draw pixel glyphs on a grid, connect them with arrows, and the resulting graph runs on a built‑in virtual machine.


✨ Key Features

  • 70+ glyphs – arithmetic, logic, stack ops, vectors, lists, matrices, world interaction (break/place blocks, explosions, lightning, gravity, push, teleport, dash), raycasts, entity search, file I/O, mutation control, and more.
  • Visual programming – connect cells with arrows; conditional glyphs have two branches.
  • Built‑in VM – stack-based, with delay support, loops, jumps, and recursion.
  • Debug mode – step through spells, inspect stack, see current cell.
  • Mana system – personal mana + craftable batteries (executor holds up to 16 batteries).
  • Executor block – redstone‑triggered, uses spell paper and batteries.
  • Items – Spell Paper (multiple sizes), Memory Crystal (persistent lists), Staff (cast spells on right‑click).
  • Import/Export – clipboard and file‑based (large files supported via chunks).
  • Guidebook – full documentation (Patchouli, EN/RU).

  • MobHaus – random mutations on mobs (18+ mutations, tiers 1–4, up to 5 per mob). Includes crazy combos (explosive, replicating, splitting, giantism, reflective, tameable, etc.). Commands to toggle, spawn, and manage mutations.
  • Entity search glyphs – find living, items, hostile, friendly, players.
