Cheapapple the Rock!
by Cheapapple
Cheapapple the Rock! puts a rock-shaped block into the game and lets Note Blocks play a guitar sound when they sit on it, as a Fabric mod for 1.21.5 and 1.21.11.
What it does
The Bocchi Rock block is added to the game and can be crafted with stonecutting. A player who places it underneath a Note Block gets a new guitar sound from that Note Block. Plains meadows can also generate with the rock scattered across them, so the block is found in the world as well as in the crafting menu.
Picks crafted from the rock change the sound of a Note Block when they are used on it, and an Amp block changes the sound in the same way. Several skeleton-themed meme blocks and instruments can also be placed under a Note Block to give it another sound. Each addition only changes what a Note Block plays and adds nothing to the world beyond the blocks named here.
Cheapapple the Rock! is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and its source code and issue tracker are public. It is published for Fabric alone, with builds for 1.21.5 and 1.21.11, and Fabric API is required. Installation covers the server and each player's game.
