Jank Craft
by njspy123
Jank Craft is a Forge magic and progression mod built around a green resource called Jank, which players dig out of the ground, smelt and craft into gear.
What it does
Players dig up Jank Ore to obtain Raw Jank, smelt the raw material into Jank, and craft tools, weapons, armour and special items from the result. The mod groups these into a progression path that starts at ore and runs through the Jank sword, pickaxe, axe, shovel and hoe, the bow with Jank arrows, and a full Jank armour set with strong durability and combat-focused stats.
The mod also adds a painting system. Right-clicking entities with a Jank Painting captures them, a painting item shows a live counter of captured entities, and sneak right-clicking releases the captured entities nearby. Captured entities can be moved to the Painting Land dimension. Rifts open into unstable areas, and rare ruined structures sit deep underground in snowy taiga biomes, with custom blocks, dangerous Jank Zombies and rare loot.
Jank Craft runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is published for Forge only, for 1.21.11, with the 1.0.5 file the latest version and Java 21 required. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved. Public links exist for the issue tracker.
