LoveIsland
LoveIsland lets players light a Crying Obsidian portal with flint and steel to reach a new grasslands dimension, where guests waiting for them drop mixed loot.
What it does
Once a Crying Obsidian frame is built, the portal is lit with flint and steel and leads into a separate grasslands dimension. Guests are waiting there, and the mod's Minecraft-style mobs drop a mix of loot when they are defeated, so each visit can differ from the last.
The mod is built for Fabric and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.21.11, under the MIT License, and the source code is public. The project was first published and last updated on 2026-03-07.
Key features
Crying Obsidian portal
A portal frame built from Crying Obsidian opens the way to the island dimension once it is ignited.
Flint and steel ignition
The portal is lit with flint and steel, the same tool used for ordinary Nether portals.
Grasslands dimension
The portal sends the player to a new grasslands dimension that is separate from the overworld and the Nether.
Mixed loot from guests
Guests waiting in the new dimension drop a mix of loot, giving players a reason to keep returning.
Greeting on join
Players are greeted by name on entering the game, so the welcome message is part of the experience.
