Magefall (Minecraft Marketplace add-on)
Commercial add-on · PIXELAR
Gameplay systems, custom entities, and shop UI for a commercial Bedrock add-on, built with the PIXELAR team. Under contract, so little else is public.
The long way here.
01Command blocks to pluginsSixth grade, Minecraft, and two frameworks that broke under me.
It started in sixth grade. I loved playing with computers, discovered Minecraft, and moved from command blocks to plugins: JavaScript on bdsx for Bedrock dedicated servers. Minecraft kept updating, bdsx could not keep up, and it was discontinued.
So I jumped into Discord.js 12. A major release changed nearly everything around Discord's new bot rules, I had to relearn almost every part of it, and I quit.
I lost every one of those projects when my laptop broke down. No backups, nothing recovered.
02Learning from mistakesStuck at home, I finally learned Git properly.
During COVID I was stuck at home and got bored, so I started using GitHub properly and picked up CoffeeScript, Python, and C. School taught C, so that one was not optional, unfortunately.
03Building ChasingClubA Hypixel-inspired server, built by students with no spare time.
A friend and I built our own Minecraft server, inspired by our favorite server, Hypixel. We picked game modes we loved, Bed Wars, Blitz Duels, and The Bridge, reworked to bring 1.8.9-style PvP to Minecraft 1.13 and later.
We worked hard, but we were students with limited time. The group disbanded, and we went our separate ways.
What I learned: The Java OOP I learned there gave me a foundation that helped me pick up TypeScript at PIXELAR.
04Giving back to the communityAdmin of a Thai Minecraft dev group, about 6,000 members at its peak.
I was selected as an admin of Minecraft Plugin Development Thailand. I moderated discussions, gave technical support, and encouraged new developers and server owners.
I also helped non-technical server owners with hosting choices, performance, and plugin issues. Sometimes I reverse-engineered discontinued plugins and built my own versions for newer Minecraft releases; sometimes I wrote custom plugins on request.
What I learned: Advice was free. Some owners also paid me for monitoring servers and custom plugins.
05PIXELARFirst real team: a commercial Minecraft Marketplace add-on.
Mar 2025 - Apr 2026 · game developer intern, remote
I joined about two months before university and worked alongside my studies on an add-on for Marketplace creator Magefall. Until then it was solo projects and teams with no formal process, so a professional team was new to me.
I learned TypeScript from zero, and the Bedrock scripting API mostly from official docs, because AI tools of the time lacked current API knowledge. I worked with the art team, the owner, my manager, senior developers, and other interns, and walked the intern who joined after me through the codebase.
Balancing work and study got hard, so I stepped away to focus on university.
What I learned: Explaining a codebase to someone with a different background taught me to adapt how I communicate.
06Teaching and sharingTeaching assistant at CAMT, Chiang Mai University.
I assist professors on programs including Young DEV CAMT 2026, a digital skills workshop for Yupparaj Wittayalai School, CAMT Summer Courses 2026: SMART HOME, and DII Workshop Gen#8.
Mostly hands-on ESP32, Smart Farm, and IoT work: helping students write code, wire circuits, debug, and prepare for final presentations. I also help prepare and assess quizzes.
What I learned: What is simple to me can be completely unfamiliar to them. Breaking concepts down until they land is part of the skill, and so is patience.
07Smart farms and CAMT deSCIInstalling real IoT gear, then explaining decentralized networks to visitors from three continents.
I helped install IoT equipment for a smart farming project. Hardware in a real field is different from a classroom.
For CAMT deSCI at CAMT FEST 2025, I programmed ESP32 microcontrollers to talk over ESP-NOW with no internet. At the booth I explained it to visitors from China, Korea, and Europe, and found myself learning as much as presenting. A European blockchain developer asked questions I could not fully answer, and my professor stepped in.
What I learned: Knowing where my knowledge ends, and saying so, is part of the job.
08Kanazawa, JapanI froze during Q&A at the 3rd ICT Startup Competition 2026.
I joined the DII-ShowPro team late, as an outsider, and helped shape the story of the pitch. During Q&A I translated between the judges' English and my teammates' Thai. Then I froze. I understood what the judges were asking and knew what I wanted to say, but could not find the English fast enough. We answered two questions before time ran out.
The panel was clear about what matters: explain the idea briefly, show a real problem, answer with evidence. Investors look for traction, so validate an idea before pitching it.
What I learned: Everyday English and English under pressure are different skills. Next time I plan to practice with a timer and answer unexpected questions out loud, and I do not want to forget how it felt.
09Moving forwardStill unfolding.
I stepped away from PIXELAR to focus on university and explore beyond Minecraft add-ons and plugins.
