Snake Hunters

Snake Hunters adds a first King Cobra hunting and capture adventure. Start in a new Survival world, meet Villager Number Forty-Two at a small desert hub, and track a specific Cobra to its encounter area.

What you can do

• Fight a King Cobra that warns, poisons after repeated front attacks, and tries to flee when badly hurt.
• Build a bar cage around a Cobra, close its latch to capture it, then carry the occupied cage back to the villager.
• Take a capture job for a specific Cobra or defeat one to earn a weapon ticket. Redeem a ticket for a sword, bow, or random choice.
• Use the hub bed, east gate, and free replacement cage kits from the villager when you have no empty kit.

Getting started

Install this mod alongside Fabric API in a Minecraft Java Edition 26.3 Fabric profile (Fabric Loader 0.19.5 or newer; Java 25 or newer). Create a new Survival world on Easy with commands enabled. Press T, run /snakehunters start, and follow the on-screen directions. This command searches for a suitable desert before building a hub; installing the mod alone does not alter an existing world. Right-click Villager Number Forty-Two for a job. Hold a Snake Cage and press B while aiming at clear ground or a Cobra to build; sneak and press B for a larger cage. Click the copper latch to close the cage and again to pick it up. In chat, press T and click a ticket reward choice.

This is an early play-test with King Cobras only. The full capture handoff, Windows installation, and multiplayer play have not yet been verified by the family. Use a new test world and keep backups of worlds you care about. The illustrated logo is AI generated; gameplay screenshots show the actual Mac development build. This is an original project, not a fork.
