Ghastlings Forever

by sardina

Ghastling Forever keeps Ghastlings as babies, so players can feed and interact with them without them growing up.

FabricClient and serverAll rights reserved1.21.10 – 1.21.11

What it does

By default a Ghastling grows into a full Happy Ghast once it has been fed enough. Ghastling Forever changes that: the mod lets Ghastlings stay babies indefinitely, so players can work with them without worrying about growth. Growth can still be allowed, and players keep full control over when their Ghastlings grow.

Snow Block is required to enable growth, and snowballs can be fed freely, with consequences for how the Ghastling develops. The mod runs on Fabric, and the Fabric API is required. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are published for 1.21.10 and 1.21.11, with build 2 for 1.21.11 as the latest, released 2026-01-17 under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Permanent baby Ghastlings

    Ghastlings can remain babies indefinitely instead of growing into full Happy Ghasts.

  2. Player-controlled growth

    Players decide whether and when their Ghastlings grow, so growth is never forced.

  3. Free snowball feeding

    Snowballs can be fed to Ghastlings freely, though feeding carries consequences for their development.

  4. Snow Block enables growth

    Once growth is enabled with a Snow Block, a Ghastling grows into a full Happy Ghast as it normally would.
