Ala Lab studio
We build add-ons for Minecraft Bedrock Edition, the version of the game for phones, consoles and Windows. New items, blocks, mobs and mechanics with behavior and resource packs and the Script API. For your own world, Realms or a server. Price and deadline are agreed before work starts.
What we build
From a set of items to a mini-game with rules and a score. If your idea isn’t on the list, let’s talk.
New things the regular game doesn’t have.
Example order: a set of magic weapons with their own effects and recipes.
The ones players will meet in the world.
Example order: a boss with several phases and its own arena.
Your own game rules in JavaScript.
Example order: a mini-game for Realms with a timer, points and rewards.
The add-on goes where your players play.
Example order: build the same quest system for Bedrock that your Java server has.
Java and Bedrock
Bedrock is a separate version of Minecraft with its own engine. Java mods don’t run on it, so everything is built from scratch as an add-on. An add-on is made of parts, and each one has its own job.
Items, blocks, mobs, recipes, loot and mob spawning, all described in the game’s files.
Models, textures, animations, sounds and texts in every language of the game.
Logic: events, menus, custom rules and saving player data.
Some Script API features in Bedrock are still experimental and have to be turned on in the world settings. We’ll tell you what can be done without experiments before work starts.
Comparison
If you’re not sure which one you need, look at where your players play. A short comparison of the two versions of the game.

How we work
At every step you know what is done and what comes next.
Path of an add-on
Describe the idea and where people will play: phone, console, Realms or a server. We reply within 8 hours.
We check what of it is possible in Bedrock and fix the scope, price and deadline before starting.
We send you the pack as work progresses and test it in game on the devices that matter.
The finished .mcaddon, an install guide and the support terms.
Price
Tick what your add-on needs and watch the amount of work grow. We quote a price once the task is clear and fix it before work starts.
Approximate scope
A few items or blocks.
A mob with its own model, or a scripted mechanic.
A set of mechanics, mobs and items around one idea.
This is a guide, not a price. We name the exact cost and deadline once the task is clear.
Discuss an add-onQuestions
A mod runs on Java Edition, an add-on on Bedrock. They are different versions of the game, so a Java mod can’t be moved to Bedrock as is: everything is built from scratch.
Everywhere Bedrock Edition runs: phones, tablets, consoles and Windows. We test on the devices people will actually play on.
Yes. The add-on is attached to a world, and the world can be uploaded to Realms or run on Bedrock Dedicated Server. We’ll discuss the limits of experimental features before we start.
It depends on the number of items, mobs, models and mechanics. We quote a price once the task is clear and fix it, together with the deadline, before work starts.
Only official Mojang partners can sell on the Minecraft Marketplace. We can make an add-on for your own world, Realms or server.
A .mcaddon or .mcpack file to install, a guide and, if needed, a world with the packs attached. Rights and support are agreed before we start.
