About this Mod

1 Heart!!
Think Minecraft Hardcore is too easy? Try doing it with a permanent glass jaw.

1 Heart!! strips away your standard safety net and locks your base maximum health to exactly one heart (2 HP). Whether you are playing in Survival, Adventure, or Hardcore mode, you are permanently one mistake away from the spectator screen.

🌟 The One Exception: Golden Lifelines
While your natural red hearts are locked at one, Enchanted Golden Apples are your ultimate saving grace. Consuming a God Apple will still grant you temporary Absorption hearts.

This turns the entire gameplay loop into a tense, high-stakes resource hunt: do you hoard your precious golden apples for the Ender Dragon fight, or do you pop one now because that dark cave looks a little too dangerous?

⚡ Features
Fragile Base: Your permanent maximum health is strictly locked at 1 red heart. No passive healing, leveling, or standard potions can increase this cap.

Strategic Absorption: Enchanted Golden Apples (and regular Golden Apples) still grant their temporary absorption hearts, giving you a brief, tactical buffer against instant death.

Universal Danger: Works seamlessly across Survival, Adventure, and Hardcore modes.

Modpack Ready: Lightweight, performance-friendly, and perfectly suited for custom hardcore challenge packs.

🛠 How to Play
Simply install the mod and jump into a world. Your health bar will instantly drop to a single, fragile heart.

Warning: 1 Heart!! is not for the faint of heart. One wrong step, one mistimed jump, or one sneaky creeper will end your run instantly—unless you've got some gold to back you up. Good luck, you're going to need it!
