In their own words
Brixel
Brixel is a Minecraft resource pack that redesigns the game’s world, blocks, mobs, sounds, and interface as a miniature brick-built universe. 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 Minecraft Java Edition and Bedrock Edition, Vibrant Visuals, RTX, and shaders. Resolution options range from x64 to x512, with access varying by patron tier; all listed tiers include Java and Bedrock editions. Plans cost 1.00 USD, 4.00 USD, 8.00 USD, or $12 a month, plus VAT. The Bedrock RTX version is described for PCs supporting Minecraft RTX or BetterRTX, and the latest Minecraft Preview with experimental Renderdragon shader features. Its Bedrock launch was described as Early Access, with some assets still needing polishing and additions. For Brixel 3.3, the maker recommends Minecraft 1.21.4 with OptiFine; newer versions through Iris may omit some custom models. Patrons receive frequent updates and can vote on development choices.
