Skillheim!
by asa0x
Skillheim! is a Fabric progression mod in which sprinting, jumping, swimming, crouching and punching raise their own skill levels the more they are used.
What it does
Each skill grows through use rather than through a separate menu. Sprinting gradually increases base movement speed, leaping raises jump height, time spent in water increases swim speed, and crouching improves stealth. Punching mobs raises unarmed damage, and the mod starts that gain at a 10x XP multiplier so early progress comes quickly. Spear combat is also part of the system, so players who keep stabbing deal more damage over time.
The design follows a simple philosophy inspired by Valheim: players run faster, jump higher and hit harder by doing those actions. Progress is not a separate task, which fits the mod into vanilla survival, where time spent surviving, fighting and exploring is what builds the character. Skillheim! requires Fabric API and runs on Fabric 1.20.1 only. It is published with the environment set to client and server, so the server and every player need it. The license is All rights reserved and the code is not open source.
Key features
Sprint-based speed
Sprinting builds base movement speed gradually, so regular running changes how quickly the character covers ground.
Leap-based jump height
Leaping raises jump height as the skill improves, letting players reach higher ledges with use.
Swim speed from water time
Time spent in water increases swim speed, so long stretches in rivers and oceans leave a visible result.
Spear damage progression
Spear attacks raise damage over time, rewarding players who fight with the weapon regularly.
Unarmed damage from punching
Punching mobs increases unarmed damage, and early gains come quickly because the mod scales them up at first.
