Nathan Adams

Nathan 'Dinnerbone' Adams is a game developer at Mojang AB who worked on Minecraft and its launcher. A member of the Bukkit team, Adams was hired by Mojang on 28 February 2012 to develop the mod API. His first day at the Mojang office was 27 March 2012, shortly before the first development snapshots for version 1.3.1.

A common trope attributed to Dinnerbone is that he is commonly displayed as being upside-down. His Twitter avatar is flipped and his user model, as well as any mob named "Dinnerbone", will be rendered upside-down.

In October 2015 he announced that he would be "taking a break from Minecraft PC development for a few months." Later, in February 2016, he further elaborated that though he would continue on other projects at Mojang, he had left the Minecraft team.

Biography

After finishing secondary school, Dinnerbone was rejected from college, so he found a job with a tiny web development company but was made redundant after a few years. Shortly after starting Bukkit, Dinnerbone was hired by Curse where he worked until joining Mojang.
