Hypothermic Reforged
by PURPL3-CAT
Hypothermic Reforged brings cold-themed mechanics to Minecraft's colder regions, adding a new survival layer to cold biomes.
What it does
In cold biomes, players take damage while swimming in water, which turns the frozen regions into a new survival challenge. A new plant grows in those biomes and is needed for brewing a Freezing Resistance Potion, which temporarily protects the drinker from cold water and freezing effects.
The mod is a remake of lixir's Hypothermic mod, rebuilt for newer versions, and it is meant for players who want harsher environments and new tools for combat in freezing temperatures. Both the server and every player need it, since it is client and server, and files are published for Forge and NeoForge across five game versions, 1.20.1 – 1.21.3. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved.
