Brad's Mobs
Meet a few new faces out in the world! Fight mothmen, hideous Meatballs and imps - And enjoy the presence of butterflies, dragonflies and the chirping of crickets when you're done with the fight.
THIS ADD-ON REQUIRES ALL THE EXPERIMENTAL FEATURES TO BE TURNED ON TO WORK RIGHT!! SORRY FOR YELLING.

This add-on is for the current version of Bedrock and adds the following:
- The Meatball. This tremendous, drippy floating blob will fire off a volley of multiple exploding plasma mortars. It has five times the health, and five times the experience reward, of a normal mob. Meatball currently drops leather, bones, and rotten flesh, and spawns infrequently anywhere in the overworld.
- The Bug Eyed Monster. This little jerk will bum rush you with a flying melee attack, and inflict you with a few seconds of weakness. The B.E.M. will be knocked out of the air briefly when struck with a melee attack or projectile, so if you're getting swarmed try to keep them grounded by batting them around senseless. They drop feathers currently but will get more interesting drops in a future update.
- The Imp. A reskin of the Bug Eyed Monster that patrols the nether infrequently. Instead of causing weakness, this guy just hits harder than his cousin. No drops yet. Same logic as the B.E.M insofar that repeatedly smacking them will keep them from chasing you down.
- The Lobster. This little guy spawns on the ocean floor and drops a piece of lobster meat. Given that this meat, when cooked, is even more nourishing and satiating than cooked beef, it might be worth dusting off your trident and going for a lobster hunt.
- The Dragonfly and the Butterfly. Cute little bugs that spawn throughout the overworld with some frequency. Entirely decorative, but nice to look at! Dragonflies and butterflies have variants depending on the biome in which they spawn - little common white butterflies, striking Morpho butterflies, green and blue Darner dragonflies, and more.
- The Eyebat. This little guy... Oh man. My attempt at ousting the strider as the cutest nether mob succeeded with flying colors. 5 flying colors, actually! This flying cyclopean furball spawns in one of five different colors depending on what nether biome it generates in. You can slay it for some feathers and eyebat meat but why would you do that man. All they do is fly around and make silly noises. What did they ever do to you.
- The Cricket and the Grasshopper. These little bugs sure love making noise. The crickets despawn during the day to hand things over to the grasshoppers, and vice versa. At night you'll hear the crickets, during the day you'll hear the stridulation of the grasshopper.
- The birds! Enjoy the company of three different birds. Robins arguably have the best singing voice, the sparrow in a close second, and the bluejay in a horrid, screechy third. Birds will bob around on the ground and peck the dirt and they'll occasionally take to the air. They will disperse when you get too close to them... perhaps this is a spyglass moment?
- The scorpion. This cantankerous creature minds its own business in the deserts, savannahs and jungles of the world. It makes a threatening pose when you get too close... punching it will earn you a nasty, poisonous sting. Desert scorpions take on the beige appearance of a bark scorpion and jungle scorpions are black, like the emperor scorpion. And hey... Bane of Arthropods has another use case!

WHAT'S NEXT?
I kind of just add things as I see fit, but here's vaguely what you should expect from future updates.
- A new desert exclusive enemy.
- A new beach exclusive enemy.
- A few new varieties of songbird.
- Iterating the behavior of butterflies to allow gardeners to keep them around.
- A bug pin and a specimen board block for slain bugs.
As always, please enjoy my work thus far.
- Added three varieties of songbirds - the robin, the sparrow and the bluejay. Songbirds will sing, bob around on the ground and peck, and intermittently fly. Songbirds spawn in the forest biomes.
- Added scorpions with two skins - a bark scorpion and an emperor scorpion. Scorpions spawn in the jungle, the savannah, the desert and the mesa. Scorpions will stop and prostrate when you get too close, but will only sting you when you attack them.
- Added an alternate skin for Bug Eyed Monster for when they spawn in snowy biomes. Might not work consistently!
- Fixed mob egg colors for the imp.
- Grasshoppers are now the same size as crickets.
