Ore Silverfish Mod

Each ore type has an infested variant that releases silverfish when mined. The mod covers iron, gold, copper, coal, emerald, lapis, redstone and diamond, and each silverfish type behaves differently, from iron silverfish that guard a stash to diamond silverfish that stand over the gems. The mining sections turn into a short fight, so the work of collecting ore becomes riskier than in vanilla.

The final challenge is Mother Ore Silverfish, a large boss that defends its own infested ores and attacks with strong blows. Players reach it through an Altar Room, where the boss is awakened by placing specific items on the pedestals around a BossAltarBlock. The summoning ritual consumes valuable materials, so the fight starts only after the player has committed resources.
