Creeperlings
by Keeganator
Creeperlings replaces the block damage of creepers with smaller creeperlings that spawn where the explosion would have been.
What it does
Instead of breaking blocks, a creeper that goes off spawns creeperlings in its place. The creeperlings are smaller than creepers, deal less damage and have less health, and they run faster. Creepers also apply a spored effect to nearby entities, and when creeperlings explode they can spawn more creeperlings, with a chance that rises when they take damage. The mod runs on Fabric and is needed on client and server, so the server and every player must install it. Its files target 1.21.11 – 26.3, with 1.2.0-26.3 for 26.3 as the latest, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, not open source.

How it compares
Creeper Launcher is server-side only and open source under the MIT License, for 1.21.11 – 26.3 on Fabric. NoCreeperDamage is also server-side only and open source, under the ISC License, for 1.21.5 – 26.1.2 on Fabric. Creeperlings needs both sides, so it differs from these two in environment.
