About this Mod

This mod adds colored blocks that emmit a ligth with a level of 14.

There also is a creative tab integraded and the blocks have crafting recipes.

I initially created this mod in the beginning of 2024 and it is the first mod I ever created.
I intend to extend this mod in the future.

Planned features:

Light Slabs
Light stairs
maybe more…

Also I'm working on creating new textures for the Blocks and adjusting the properties like lightlevel etc.
