Golems Galore
by frqnny
Golems Galore is a Fabric mod that adds several new kinds of golems, each with its own health, attack damage and special abilities.
What it does
Golems in the mod are acquired by collecting a Golem Soul: a player right-clicks an Iron Golem found in a village using three glass bottles, and each bottle takes one third of the golem's health. The golem must not be killed during the process, and once a soul is collected the mod spawns a modded golem with a single right-click.
New golems were added across releases, with version 0.2.0 adding six of them. Among them are a tiny, inexpensive Mini Golem, a flying Spooky Golem that shoots pumpkins, and a Christmas Golem that fires a new Christmas projectile. The golems are described as additions to vanilla golems that existed long before the Nether update.
Golems Galore is published for Fabric only, across eight release versions 1.16.2 – 1.18.2, with 1.2.0+1.18.2 as the latest file for 1.18.2. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The mod is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only.

Modified golem attributes
Each golem has its own health and attack damage values, and the golems also carry special abilities.
Configurable defaults
A config file changes the default attributes of the golems, which suits servers that need to adjust balance.
