Craft or die
Craft or Die is a food and survival mod in which players craft weapons, fight new enemies and make pies in a post-apocalyptic setting.
What it does
The mod takes its premise from the Roblox game Bake Die and adds a crafting survival experience with new enemies, weapons and pies. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, with builds for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and the NeoForge line is the one the author plans to continue. Both sides need it, as servers and players alike run it. It is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Pie recipes
Apple, meat, carrot, blueberry, buttered and doomberry pies can be made, each as a food item.
Weapons and tools
Rolling pins, frying pans, a wu staff, a katana, a butcher knife and a chef cleaver serve as weapons.
New enemies
Tank zombies, apple zombies, blueberry zombies and zombie chefs appear as hostile mobs to fight.
