A mod originally created to test the abilities of blocks and entity movement that has so much potential!
About this Mod
BounceCraft3
BounceCraft adds pads and grates that move entities and the player around, potentially very quickly. All of this is
based around a new resource, called Bouncium, that generates in lakes around the world.

History
Back in Minecraft 1.2.5, I was learning how to make mods (and learning Java at the same time), and I created a mod that
added a single block. This block, when stepped-on, would fling whatever stepped on it into the air. This was the first
version of BounceCraft.
Later, in 1.5.2, I decided to completely re-design the mod, adding bounce pads, speed pads, grates, bouncium blocks, and
connected-texture glass (yes, using the 47 texture method). This was the first version that resembled what we have
today.
Then, in 1.7.10, I decided to add multipart functionality, allowing pads and grates to be placed in the same block. This
version was called BounceCraft2, because it involved a whole re-write.
Now, in Minecraft 1.20, I am working to port each of the features from the 1.5.2 and 1.7.10 versions of the mod, with
some modifications for balance and style.
