Blonks
by techibuzz
Blonks adds tank-like blocks called Blonks that shoot exploding shells, and the Fabric mod fits both survival play and server builds.
What it does
Blonks are durable, high blast resistance blocks dyed in 16 colors. A player loads them by right-clicking with a shell or by using the GUI, then fires shells that break nearby blocks. A shell that explodes close to a Blonk turns it into a weaker, non-usable variant called a Broken Blonk, while a shell that directly hits one breaks it with a huge explosion.
A Broken Blonk can be repaired by right-clicking it with Scrap, so damaged blocks do not have to be replaced outright. The mod is open source under the MIT License and runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it. It is published for Fabric only, with builds for 1.21.10 and 1.21.11 and 1.1.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest file.
The mod was first published on 2025-11-24 and last updated on 2026-01-02. Blonks belongs to the Cursed and Equipment categories, and Fabric is the only loader it targets.
