About this Mod

Lush Caves have always been a beautiful sight during underground exploration. However, their lack of practical features beyond Glow Berries and Big Dripleaf often leaves much to be desired.
Lushier reimagines and expands the Lush Caves with brand new natural features, archaeological structures, and a mid-game material, making this wonderful biome more rewarding to explore.





Ancient Corallite is a special gem that can be obtained when mining Emerald Ore or looting structures in the Lush Caves. It can be smelted into an Emerald, or crafted together with Copper Ingots and Lapis Lazuli to create Veronze, a unique alloy comparable in concept to Netherite, but designed exclusively for upgrading wooden tools and shears.
Veronze tools feature high attack speed and mining speed and are naturally imbued with a unique enchantment called Germination, which allows them to slowly repair themselves when exposed to sufficient light.

Glow Berries can now be smelted into Glowdew, an interesting lighting and detection tool. When used, it briefly creates a temporary light source at the user location, while nearby living entities are highlighted with the Glowing effect for a short duration. Combined with a Slimeball, it can be crafted into Flareballs, a throwable variant for long-range scouting.



- Added the music disc Butterfly by Kate Kody, licensed under CC BY 4.0. It can be obtained by brushing Suspicious Gravel in lush ruins.
