About this project
What does Assorted 8-Bit Mobs add?
Assorted 8-Bit Mobs
Adds parabuzzies and Bob-ombs, two creatures from the old 8-bit games. A tamed parabuzzy rides on your head and slows your fall, and a Bob-omb follows you around and blows up anything that attacks you.

Parabuzzy
- A winged shell that hovers more than it falls and hunts monsters. They spawn all over the Overworld.
- They come in blue and red, and in spiked versions of each.
- A fish tames one and food heals a tame one.
- Right click a tamed parabuzzy and it climbs onto your head. There it slowly heals, and you drift down as gently as it does with no fall damage.
- Sneak on the ground to put it down.
Bob-omb
- A Bob-omb is built from a parabuzzy's shell.
- Put one down and it follows you. When a monster hurts you, it walks up to it and lights its fuse.
- Careful when hitting one yourself, since any hit lights its fuse.
- A Bob-omb rides on your head too. Sneak and use one with an empty hand to pick it back up.
