LittleStar
by TCD1234
LittleStar fills the empty space around the player with floating particles, as a client-side cosmetic mod for Fabric, Forge and Quilt.
What it does
Particles drift around the player, and the player picks the shape and kind: starlets, hearts, money or snow, drawn as wireframe 3D cubes. Speed, size, amount and lifetime can each be adjusted, and a texture swap lets hearts and dollar signs replace the default sprite. An RGB picker offers Gold and Cosmic presets as well as an animated Rainbow option, and the controls open with the F7 key.
Only the client needs LittleStar, so a player can run it in single-player or on a multiplayer server without the server installing anything. Each setting can also be changed in the config file. Cloth Config API is required on every loader, and Mod Menu is optional for opening the settings from a menu. Builds are published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt across seven release versions, 1.20.1 – 1.21, under the MIT License, and the project is not open source.
Key features
Cube particle shapes
Particles appear as small symbols such as hearts, dollar signs or snowflakes, shown as wireframe 3D cubes.
Particle tuning
Speed, size, amount and lifetime of the floating particles can each be set to taste.
Texture swap
A texture swap option replaces the particle sprite with another symbol, without changing the rest of the effect.
Color presets
An RGB picker, Gold and Cosmic presets and an animated Rainbow setting control the particle color.

Use cases
Screenshots and recording
Players who record or photograph their worlds can add a decorative particle field around the character.
Personal look in multiplayer
Because nothing is needed on the server, each player can choose a particle style on a server that does not run the mod.
Who it’s for: Players who want a decorative particle effect around their character, on any server, and who would rather tune its look in a config file or the F7 controls than edit the game.
