Diabolical Delights
by AzureDoom
Diabolical Delights adds Jack O'Bomb, a craftable throwing item that releases a random effect when it lands rather than exploding like TNT.
What it does
Jack O'Bomb is made at a crafting table from Jack o'Lantern, redstone dust and gunpowder. Thrown, it does not blow up like a TNT block. Instead it triggers a random cascade of effects on landing, ranging from comical to harmful, so each throw gives a different result.
The random effects include speed changes, a mining fatigue effect, changes to melee damage, instant health and instant damage, jump boost, distorted vision, gradual healing, reduced incoming damage, fire resistance and water breathing. The mod runs on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and it needs AzureLib and Fabric API. Jack o'Cache is optional. Both sides need the mod, so the server and every player install it. Builds cover 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
