📋 About This Mod
### Participant MCreator x CurseForge ModJam 2024 !(https://i.ibb.co/ySkZmwR/logologo.png) ### Villagers, Illagers, and now introducing: ¡Burrowers! !(https://i.ibb.co/XW0TkN8/imagen.png) _A hidden society of **distant relatives of the villager** has adapted to the lack of light **underground** by turning into molemen, hoarding any resources they find while tunneling and building their homes. They seem friendly enough, but... **What could they be hiding?**_ ### Blocks & Items <details> <summary>Spoiler</summary> !(https://i.ibb.co/tHXz2HH/tough-root.png) **Tough Roots & Rootwood** The underground's main source of food. Break the roots that hang from the village ceiling to get a handful of them. While not having much nutritional value, you can find them really useful to build all the blocks and items you would expect from a new wood type, the rootwood !(https://i.ibb.co/68PktcJ/cave-fern.png) **Cave Fern** A new vegetation block that can be potted and serves as decoration. !(https://i.ibb.co/8sdPtXH/lichen-lantern.png) **Lichen Lantern** Burrowers don't really care for lights as glowing lichen grow rampant in their homes. But when they feel fancy, they hang a **lichen lantern**, made from **glass**, **iron**, and said **lichen**. These emit a dimmer light than the regular lanterns, but the glass exterior looks really good! !(https://i.ibb.co/bPmqyW2/cave-stew.png) **Cave Stew** A nutritious meal made with a tough root, silver dweller meat, and any mushroom. !(https://i.ibb.co/BZ0F9BQ/haste-potion.png) **Haste Potion** Haste potions can now be crafted by using either a **dweller dung** or its **meat** in an awkward potion over the brewing stand. There are also **splash**, **lingering**, and **arrow** variants. !(https://i.ibb.co/2sCRs3M/pots.gif) **Pottery Patterns** Try to find new **Wail** and **Memory** pottery sherds! They seem designed by the burrowers, so what could these patterns mean for them? It also introduces a **blank** pottery sherd, which you can get by using the stonecutter with any other sherd. !(https://i.ibb.co/5j1fvBS/music-disc-placebo.png) **Music Disc** A new track called "**Placebo**", by my friend (https://open.spotify.com/intl-es/artist/1UvQwGhNMpOK3fqW1kBW8s) </details> ### Entities <details> <summary>Spoiler</summary> The mod includes three different entities, all featuring **custom sounds** and **animations**! A lot of care went into these to make them feel as alive as possible given the limited time frame and my coding knowledge. The new creatures are the following: **Silver Dwellers** !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/1a81fa3b8d2951ecd22f4557ab00299e136227f0.gif) A **bigger** and **domesticated silverfish**. They are bred to help the burrowers build their villages and serve as a **food source**. They feed on different types of stone, and if they notice a stone block on the ground, **they'll rush to eat it and will spit it out turned into its smooth variant**. While doing this, they have a chance to drop a **dung item**. These creatures are **neutral** but will attack back any attacker, alerting other dwellers. They can be **bred** with **live silverfish**. !(https://i.ibb.co/HN8SRqy/raw-silver-dweller.png) **Silver Dweller Meat** Dropped by silver dwellers. A viable **food source**. !(https://i.ibb.co/W6Ttc9b/dweller-dung.png) **Dweller Dung** Functions like **bone meal** but for **ore veins**. Use it on an ore block to generate another one beside it. It generates **murky ore blocks**, which cannot be duplicated. It also has a chance to convert the original block into a murky one, but this won't affect its drop rates. !(https://i.ibb.co/ck7Fx0j/murky-ores.gif) **Murky Ore Variants** They have the same functionality as **regular** ores and **deepslate** ores. They only generate when you use the dweller dung. **Burrowers** !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/dfb90ace0426c34f9d71135582a0e823e34c2280.gif) The protagonists of this mod, featuring **seven different variants**! These creatures lurk underground in their own cities, mainly around their giant root trees. They may flee from you at first, but will stop running if you bring any **fruit** item in your hand. If you drop them any kind of fruit, they'll stop to inspect it and **barter** with you, playing a cute custom animation. The barter loot table is the following, ordered by rarity: - Memory Pottery Sherd, Dweller Dung, Invisibility Potion, Invisibility Splash Potion, Emeralds, Shears, Murky Deepslate Redstone Ores, Silver Dweller Mea
