About this Mod
In reality, water evaporating in the Nether would mean the temperature of this infernal dimension would be high enough to burn anything inside, so with that small idea I decided to add that into the game, alongside a few other small features.
This was mostly made as a fun experiment and for a video to run on my YouTube channel, so I hope you get at least a little fun out of it as well!
The whole aim of this mod is to add a whole slew of new challenges to Minecraft's Nether and it's progression, whilst adding a few new smaller extensions to said progression.
TRAILER
SHOWCASE
A list of a few features:
Nether's Flames: Players actually need to prepare before venturing into the Nether, lest they be charred by the Nether's Flames, find Fireshrooms near bedrock level to make Fireshroom stew for restistance against this .
New Mob: The "Servant" is a semi-uncommonly spawning mob in the Nether Wastes, which can deal immense damage and knockback, meaning the player can't just run into the Nether without the proper gear.
Trap plants: Plants such as Mycorrhiza roots and sprouts hide amongst crimson and warped nylium, spiking up and shredding any unknowing players, alongside the Poison Glass Fungus which poisons whoever breaks it, which would be easily avoidable if they didn't shatter on touch.
And more to come later!**
This mod requires "Geckolib" and "Kotlin for Forge" to work!
