A terrible RPG

by aguyintheroad

A Terrible RPG replaces the usual sword and bow fights with launcher weapons that fire explosive projectiles, which is the core of the mod's combat.

What it does

Combat is built around RPG-style launchers instead of melee and bows. Each launcher fires projectiles that cause large explosions, can destroy terrain in a wide area, and can launch mobs through the air. The weapons are meant for ranged attacks against groups of enemies, and their effects are chaotic and hard to predict, since the launchers can fire unusual projectiles that produce random results.

The mod is aimed at players who want faster, more destructive fights than vanilla combat offers, and at multiplayer groups that want shared chaos. It requires Fabric API, so that library has to be installed alongside it. A Terrible RPG runs on client and server, so the server and every player need the mod. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.20.4 and 1.21.1, with 26.5.5 as the latest file for 1.21.1. The code is covered by the MIT License and is not open source.
