About this Mod
(Previously known as Unaverage Tweaks)
This mod is a collection of small changes and additions to the game.
These features either make the game more challenging, incentivize the use of pre-existing features, or just changes things to make more sense.
In addition, everything is configurable. If you don't like something, you can easily turn it off. In fact, every feature is disabled by default and must be enabled in the configs.
