Brixel is a Minecraft resource pack that turns the game’s world, blocks, mobs, sounds, and interface into a miniature brick-built setting. It uses 3D textures with physical studs and adds custom models for blocks, mobs, and tools, along with a stylized interface and brick-like sound effects. The maker lists compatibility with Java Edition and Bedrock Edition, Vibrant Visuals, RTX, and shaders. Resolution choices range from x64 to x512, with access depending on patron tier; all listed tiers include both Java and Bedrock editions. Plans are 1.00 USD, 4.00 USD, 8.00 USD, and 12.00 USD per month, plus VAT. Bedrock works on PC, consoles, and mobile devices. The maker describes the Bedrock RTX version as suited to PCs supporting Minecraft RTX or BetterRTX, and to the latest Minecraft Preview with experimental Renderdragon shader features. For Brixel 3.3, the maker recommends Minecraft 1.21.4 with OptiFine; newer versions using Iris may omit some custom models. Patrons receive frequent updates and can vote on blocks or features.
