Make a harder Minecraft experience

About this Mod
Description
This Mod aims to make vanilla Minecraft harder without changing much of the vanilla mechanics. This Mod adds various challanges to make vanilla harder. Examples are: No Damage allowed or no jumping. All of these are able to be turned on and off in the config file. This Mod is under heavy development.
These Challanges can all (most) be activated at the same time, but expect an unbeatable Minecraft... (if you beat it, congratulations)
