Black And Dark
by QuasoDev
Black And Dark adds a dark side to the Overworld, with a Darkside dimension, a new mob called Walker, two ores and two potion effects for players who go looking.
What it does
Something dark sits deep within the Overworld, and players can find it by exploring the dark side of the world. Two ores called Tentinar and Detentinar are added, and Detentinar is used for equipment such as a shield. New flower blocks and a Darkside dimension with its own mob, the Walker, extend the exploration.
Two potion effects come with the mod. Shield light protects the player from darkness, while Dark poison deals damage over time. A new item, a Book of light, can be crafted into a Light apple. Black And Dark is for Forge on Minecraft 1.20.1 only, and it needs to be installed on both the client and the server. The author notes that some bugs remain, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
