Bits and Balance is a mod focused on new features, game-balance, and smoother gameplay. Some features include: Enemies scaling in difficulty as you delve deeper into the world, allowing players to change stances such as sitting, crawling, and stance toggling. New blocks such as Steps and Vertical Slabs with mixing capability for tons of new building possibilities! Combat is lightly refined with anti one-shot protection and snowballs freezing enemies. Numerous quality-of-life features such as double door opening, speedy ladders, and instant shield blocking. The mod also adds new potions and several client-side improvements. Too many things to mention.

This mod will be expanding over time - adding new features within the world, more potions, recipes, and compatibility between other mods.
