About this Mod

DISCLAIMER: 1.19 and ahead only supported, requires Terrablender! 

The mod changes Minecraft to be more like Don't Starve such as making darkness hazardous, majorly changing gathering mechanics with future plans for increasing difficulty and putting a greater emphasis on hunger maintenance

Features:

  • New biomes, such as barren rockylands, autumnal deciduous forests, graveyards, creepy conifer forests and slimy marshes
  • A limited crafting system that functions like Don't Starve's prototyping system
  • Gather materials to craft and survive Don't Starve style: twigs, cut grass, flint, gold nuggets, rocks, logs, etc
  • Gone are your tools made from stone, iron or diamond and instead tools made from flint or gold
  • New structures/blocks that replace vanilla essentials such as basic farms and science machines
  • Charlie now attack in full darkness so make sure to find some light before dusk...you can make a torch from two cut grass and two twigs, it can't be placed but emits light when held
  • Stationary light sources are also available in the form of campfires and firepits, these can be used to cook food too
  • 12 mobs: Butterflies, Fireflies, Mandrakes, Catcoons, Batilisks, Tentacles, Ghosts, Mr. Skitts, Night Hands, Shadow Watchers, Crawling Horrors and Terrorbeaks
  • Sanity meter/stat
  • Caves dimension
  • Drying Racks and Crock Pots
  • Idle Hunger Drain (1 Hunger every 2400 ticks/2 Minutes, hunger-tick rate adjustable in config)
  • Bug Nets, Backpacks, Straw Rolls, Miner Hats, Lanterns, Garlands, Anti Venom and Pumpkin Lanterns
  • Darts (including Fire and Electric variants)
