Ribbits
by Joo5h
Swamp villages populated by small frog villagers called ribbits, which gather in groups to play music that players can join.
What it does
Ribbits generates swamp villages in which the villagers are ribbits, a frog-style villager type. Some groups sit down to play music, and a player can join in. Merchant and fisherman ribbits trade a set of items, including the plant blocks and maracas the mod adds.
Sorcerer ribbits cast spells that give the player temporary buffs at irregular times. Gardener ribbits water crops nearby. The mod requires Cloth Config API, Fabric API, Geckolib and YUNG's API, and Mod Menu is optional. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across three game versions, with 4.1.6 for 1.21.1 as the latest Fabric and NeoForge build. Both the server and every player need the mod. The code is under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only and is open source.
