Cherish
by 0xKY
Cherish adds a Cherry Grove biome with new cherry trees, cherries, golden cherries and paper lanterns for Fabric on Minecraft 1.20.
What it does
The mod places a new Cherry Grove biome in the world, with cherry trees whose branches reach three directions and whose leaves can hang with fruit. Bamboo generates on podzol in that biome, and rocks appear in cherry groves. Bamboo Jungles remain common, while the bamboo elsewhere is spread out more sparsely.
Cherries can be harvested from the leaves, collected with shears as a decoration, or brewed into love potions. Eating cherries breeds animals twice in quick succession for a short time. Cherry pits can be thrown as projectiles: a player who is given two of them gets an inventory-full spill, and a hit with a pit deals four times normal damage to a hostile mob. Weakness potions brewed from cherries weaken mobs more effectively. Golden cherries are crafted from gold ingots and cherries, and paper lanterns are crafted from one regular lantern surrounded by eight paper, adding a new light source.
Cherish runs on Fabric and needs Fabric API. The code is released under the MIT License. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files are published for 1.20 only, with 1.2.0 for 1.20 as the latest, and snapshot builds are also published.
