Texture Pack Summary
The Dark Mode resource pack by MelonBP is an artistic and unique addition to the Minecraft Marketplace that aims to give your game a sleek, night-time look. At a very budget friendly price of 310 Minecoins, this pack is primarily marketed as a UI resource pack, but it actually offers much more than just menu changes. I was really intrigued to review this on Minecraft Bedrock because it promises to transform the entire atmosphere of the game by taking most of the colour out and focusing on a proof of concept style.
When you load into the world, you will see that the primary function of changing the UI works perfectly, with all menus turning a dark colour that is ideal for late night gaming sessions. However, the pack also changes the world itself, turning it into a dark and moody environment where the use of limited colour is very effective. One of my favourite parts was seeing how the mobs have been redesigned; the Enderman looks particularly cool with its dark features, and the pack even includes 10 custom skins. It really feels like an artistic vision where the developer wanted to see how Minecraft would look with a completely different lighting and colour balance.
While the pack is very creative, there are a few areas where it feels like a bit of an oversight occurred. For example, some mobs like the piglins and zombies could have used a few more custom details to truly make them stand out in this new style. I also noticed that the armour did not always match the rest of the dark aesthetic, which can be a bit distracting when you are trying to stay immersed in the world. Despite these small issues, it is a fantastic value for money and a very polished artistic project. I am giving this a solid 8 out of 10 for its creativity and the friendly developer support behind it.
Pros
- Perfect for night gaming: The dark UI menus are much easier on the eyes and provide a very comfortable experience for playing in the dark.
- Excellent value for money: At only 310 Minecoins on the Minecraft Marketplace, you get a full UI overhaul plus world textures and 10 skins.
- Unique artistic vision: The way the pack removes most of the colour to create a "dark mode" world is very creative and feels like a cool proof of concept.
- Great mob redesigns: Mobs like the Enderman look fantastic in this style and fit the mysterious atmosphere of the pack perfectly.
- Friendly developer support: Melon BP is known for being very positive and open to feedback from the community, which is always a huge plus.
Cons
- Inconsistent armour sets: The armour does not always match the dark theme of the rest of the pack, which feels like a bit of a missed opportunity.
- Simple mob details: Some creatures like the zombies and piglins could have used more unique features to make them feel truly original.
- Specific visual niche: Because it is such an artistic and dark pack, it might not be the best choice for players who prefer a bright and sunny survival world.
- Limited block variety: While the dark look is cool, some areas of the world can start to feel a bit repetitive because of the restricted colour palette.
- Identity confusion: Since it is sold as a UI pack but changes the whole world, some players might be surprised by how much it actually alters their game.
