Kaleidoscope Contraption
A compatibility addon that brings Kaleidoscope Cookery blocks to Create contraptions, allowing you to build fully functional mobile kitchens!
📖 Overview
Kaleidoscope Contraption bridges the gap between Kaleidoscope Cookery's immersive cooking experience and Create's powerful mechanical contraptions. Ever wanted a food truck in Minecraft? Now you can build one!
