Heartseeker

by antymology

Heartseeker starts each player with three hearts and spreads extra health across crystals hidden in the world, so exploration is needed to grow the health pool.

What it does

Players begin weaker than usual and must locate Life Crystals in remote places to raise their maximum health. The idea follows Terraria's Life Crystals, with the crystals placed in harder-to-reach spots, which makes the early game more dangerous and the later rewards more meaningful. Starting health and how quickly crystals are consumed can be set in the configuration, and the Mod Menu screen gives access to the other options. Heartseeker is open source under the MIT License and runs on Fabric for 1.20.2, with client and server both needing it.

Key features

  1. Starting health

    Each player begins with three hearts, a lower baseline than vanilla, so health must be earned through play.

  2. Hidden crystals

    Life Crystals are placed in rare locations across the world and must be tracked down to raise the maximum health pool.

  3. Configurable rules

    Starting health and crystal consumption rates can be adjusted, and Mod Menu exposes the settings for each player or server.
