Feincraft
by JamieVegan
Feincraft is a Fabric game mechanics mod that adds an oxygen mechanic, changes shields, fishing, tridents and recipes, and disables the End for players who want slower progression.
What it does
Players who run out of breath must manage a 300-second oxygen supply. Oxygen is lost over time and regained near smelting furnace blocks, a 3x3 area that has to be cleared before building there. An oxygen item can be crafted from 8 copper ingots, so the mechanic has a crafting path rather than only a timer.
Other changes alter combat, travel and crafting. Shields passively block one hit and are disabled for 10 seconds after a hit lands, with a 30-second cooldown. Fishing always returns an enchanted book carrying a single level 1 enchantment, riptide tridents are buffed, and drowned tridents drop nautilus shells. The End is disabled, ender eyes teleport the player when used in the Nether, a spyglass calls an airstrike where it is used, and many recipes were added or changed, including iron ingots in place of iron blocks.
The mod is published for Fabric only, with a single version: 1.21.10. Installation covers the server and each player's game. The author describes it as unbalanced and probably unstable, and the code is All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
