Hedgehog Companion

by AnooshMods

Hedgehog Companion adds small tameable hedgehogs that spawn in plains biomes and follow the player once tamed.

ForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.20.1

What it does

Hedgehogs appear in the plains, which are one of few biomes where they wander the grass. A player tames one by feeding it an apple, after which the animal follows its owner anywhere and stays close by. Tamed hedgehogs are described as never taking damage, so they remain at the player's side during travel.

Each hedgehog carries a small inventory, which suits light hauling on trips or expeditions. The mod includes cute animations and is intended as a companion for exploration. Geckolib has to be present for the mod to function as intended on 1.20.1, and this Forge build exists only for that one game version. The environment is client and server, so both the server and every player need it, and the code is licensed under All rights reserved, meaning it is not open source.
