best to the luck

Players begin on a bedrock plane in a superflat world, with a bonus chest structure to find. From a sharp stick and bedrock, the early steps are pebbles, gravel and flint, which combine into a knife and an unlit campfire. Lighting that campfire can take several tries, and the mod leaves that difficulty in place.

Food comes from hostile mobs and the land itself. Skeletons, stone robots and zombies drop bones, rotten flesh and leather, and cooking happens over the campfire. Leaves gathered in quantity form leaf blocks that combine with branches, and four saplings planted together grow into a tree whose planks can be turned into a crafting table. Eating strange meat is another early food source described in the mod, and crude iron later adds further crafting.

The mod is published for NeoForge on 1.21.8 and 26.1.2, with the 26.1.2 file as the latest release. The server and every player need the mod installed. The author notes the mod is built around a slow, progressive start, and it is released under All rights reserved, so the license is not an open one.
