What it does

Each time a player breaks a block, the mod deals damage to them, so mining takes a toll. The setup is meant for players who want the game to feel harder than vanilla. Fabric API must be installed alongside it. Blocks Hurt! is released under the MIT License and is not open source. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, so it works on a client alone, a server alone or both.

Key features

  1. Damage on block break

    Breaking any block removes two hearts from the player who broke it.

  2. Challenge difficulty

    The rule turns mining, a routine action, into a constant risk that changes how players approach resource gathering.

  3. Single-class design

    The whole mod is built as one file with one class, keeping the code small and simple to read for anyone who wants to adapt it.
