Minecraft

From plugins, Maps, Custom Servers and 3D models and pixel-art. My minecraft expertise has gone beyond boundaries in the creations I partake in and projects I create, to breathe more life into the existing game or writing code in Java to break boundaries in content.

Light the Night is a plugin I created for New years of 2026, allowing servers to get a drag and drop super customisable experience, for firework displays that dont require large intervention to get working from the server configurators. Drag and drop packs with pre-made shows can be purchased and dropped into server files, up and ready in minutes.

Light The Night allowed blockbench keyframes and bones to be used to track, trigger and view a firework display in a 3d environment to better visualise the trigger points, seamlessly from blockbench to Minecraft.

All of my projects are programmed in IntelliJ IDEA IDE. I find it an intuitive application to program spigot and paper plugins with maven and gradle. easily understand the project layout and still have great screen space for the code.

Testimonials

JoshS (MCModels Owner)

"Novua came on as an MCModels vendor challenged to find a hole in the market for unique and creative products, and he hit it out of the park gaining MCModels partner along the way. Novua's collection of unique development plugins includes top selling options in the community such as AnimationsCore for animating player events, BlockBench scripted firework events, and world transition animations. They are great at working with customers and understanding needs from design and functional requests."

Bimic (MCModels vendor and Minecraft marketplace seller)

"Tbh, I'm really surprised how Novua's skills improved in less than 2 year, I'm actually a content maker who worked on some products dedicated on add content to both plugins (Mainly AnimationsCore) and I had really good experience with it. Novua is always patient and active to help buyer's issues / questions, and tbh he's a really good mate! 5/5 i'll repeat my purchase with more products!!"

Ondi (Server owner)

"The more I work with Novua the better it gets, I had him make a few animations for my server, he made them quickly, with quality, and I never felt left out of the process, all the animations he made were wonderful! As for AnimationsCore, he is great with support, the plugin is all over well-crafted and makes for an amazing player experience!"
