BUGS BUGS BUGS! But the good kind.
Alrighty, let’s go through all the mobs and their features! Left to right, top to bottom, image one through image two. Since this’ll take FOREVER, use the read more! Look forward to a part two focusing on even more bugs!
SNAIL
Snails spawn in forests and swamps. Snails leave a harvestable trail of slime that can be affected by their food- make it bouncy (by feeding them blueberries), fast (raspberries) or honeyed (honey bottle). Snails come in various shades of browns, grays, greens and ruddy berry colors.
GIANT WATER BUG
Spawning in the beaches (any body of water, really), water bugs are defensive and will attack if you get close. When tamed by obtaining their eggs, water bugs make for good guard dogs- they can be commanded to stay, follow, wander, and by shift-clicking- set to neutral, passive or aggressive. GWBs come in shades of browns and blacks.
SLUG
Slugs spawn in jungles, and leave behind trails that can be used to make redstone components with upgraded signal strength. They come in shades influenced by real-life slugs- pictured is the rare banana slug.
MEALYBUG
Ah, mealybugs, the bane of any farmer. Spawning on crops, mealies eat and suck at crops until they’re sated. However, if you’ve befriended any ants, these bugs become a source of hearty honeydew, which when bottled makes for an incredible food source. Mealybugs only have one color- a dusty, pale white.
FLY
Flies spawn around carrion blocks, buzzing around and being general nuisances. Flies can be tamed by feeding them rotten flesh, and can swarm around attackers on command, descending down from the heavens to make enemies’ lives living hell. Keep an eye out for the rare tsetse and horse flies, larger and more dangerous breeds. Flies have two variants- brown and dark grey.
LIGHTNING BUG / FIREFLY
During the nighttime, look out for fireflies in the distance (since they only spawn during the night). Fireflies can be bottled and tamed with fruits, and can be placed down for a light show. Non-entity fireflies spawn around Naturality’s frog species and certain grasses, if you want the two-pixel variation. Fireflies can be dyed both as entities and as bottles, and dyeing them colors their lights. Fireflies come in a few different variants, all based on real-life species.
COCKROACH
Cockroaches spawn in Naturality’s new caves (the limestone cave and the sunken jungle) as well as in the new beach grottos. Cockroaches can be used as clean-up-crews, consuming detritus and fertilizing farms as they make their way around. Smaller cockroaches have a tendency to swarm players just like flies, and all cockroaches can be tamed. Cockroaches come in a horde of variants based on real roaches, like B. giganteus (giant cave), B. dubia, M. longipennis and B. germanica (German).
MAGGOT
Maggots are the larvae of flies, found in carcasses. They can be itemized and used to tame other creatures, if you’re a monster.
DRAGONFLY
Dragonflies spawn around bodies of water, attacking other insects to eat their fill. They can be tamed and their wings used to upgrade elytras. Dragonflies also can be used as the poor man’s elytra- allowing you to hover and slow-fall. Dragonflies come in some green and blue colors, and one iridescent one.
APHID
Another crop-destroyer, make a farm and the aphids will come. Unlike mealies, they can’t be harvested, only itemized or used in fiber and wood farms after being tamed with offerings of plants. Aphids have one variant- green.
ISOPOD
Isopods spawn in forests, and are used to culture molds and other fungi. They’re basically crustacean puppies. Also see my prior isopost for more colors. Pictured is the rubber duckie variant- the true amount of isos is a secret :)
BUTTERFLY
Butterflies spawn nearly everywhere during the day, and during the night are replaced with moths. Butterflies are basically bees, only instead of honey, they’re used to obtain nectar, which functions as natural potions that give different effects depending on what flowers they come from. Moths, on the other hand, work as glares- they dislike darkness and will point it out if given some nectar as a treat. Butterflies come in a horde of variants.
LADYBEETLE / LADYBUG
Ladybugs and other beetles of their ilk spawn in the plains, and are useful for their shells- which can be made into tough armors. Ladybugs suck at crops, and if tamed will trawl through your fields, picking only the good bits out.
GIANT ISOPOD
Giant isos spawn in the deep seas, and make a living cultivating mosses in the depths. Perhaps you could gain their trust and use them for your own good? The ways of these depth-dwellers are a mystery. They come in three variants- light, dark and pink.
Congrats! You made it down here. Have a cookie 🍪

hello little guys in my phone it’s me prox of @proxmojis on my main
my good friend slash mutual @dunktape has made a server.. its full of emotes go my proxels go
GO GO GO
something MASSIVE this way comes .....
guess who !
they’re unrelated! there’s a surprisingly small amount of variations minecraft rats can have lol
Remember when I said I'd do that rat showcase tomorrow?? Well, here's the showcase.. because I got sick!
These aren't all the rats, because there's about 13 of them. Wow.
Heheeee... rats.
RAT Redo!
The previous rat model and feature-set wasn’t up to par with what I want Naturality to be, so here’s the NEW reference sheet / feature list. Rats are found in abandoned structures around the Overworld, and also spawn in forests.
The model for these guys will be done next week. For a variety of rat color variants and some more info on rats and mice, check below the cut!
COOOLORS rahhhhh
There’s more than these, I swear! Anyhoo, rats are tameable by feeding them seeds and crops, and can perform a lot of menial tasks for you, from farming to hunting. While one rat is relatively weak, a swarm of them can overpower nearly any foe.
Mice spawn naturally in nearly every biome, and will return to their nest blocks at night. These blocks can be silk-touched, and work as a storage block for mice and rats alike. Mice can detect infested blocks.
While itemized rats are really only useful for storage (rat depository when?) and warning of danger when in your hand, itemized mice can be used as bait for larger creatures, weather forecasters and some other secrets. Rats and mice both dance to jukeboxes.
You can also find the rat divider I made for this over on proxmojis in a bit.
