What it does

The Pink Wither is a separate boss with three heads, like the normal Wither, and a pink boss bar. Its skull projectile is custom, its particles are hearts instead of the usual dark and green, and its special attacks deal normal direct melee damage. During special behavior it interacts with plants in the world. It is summoned by a method based on a summoning concept from an April Fools post for Minecraft 2.0.

The Love Golem is a custom golem that follows the behavior of an Iron Golem, with its own summoning. Iron materials for it are pink: a Pink Iron Ingot is made from an Iron Ingot and pink dye in a shapeless recipe, a Pink Block of Iron from nine ingots or from an Iron Block and dye, and either can be smelted back to normal iron. Pink Iron is used for repairing and building with the Love Golem. The Smiling Creeper is a Creeper variant, the Obsidian Boat is a boat that deliberately behaves differently on water, and a mob effect shares potion effects in the style of Potion Sharing.

The mod targets Minecraft 1.21.1 only, is published for NeoForge with a single file, 1.0 for 1.21.1, and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
