Spirit's Hardmode
Spirit's Hardmode turns the world into a harder mode that a player switches on after defeating the Ender Dragon, and it is a Forge mod for 1.19.2.
What it does
Once the hardmode is activated, mobs become harder to kill and new ores generate in the world, so the challenge changes how a player mines and fights. Ancient spirits are released in the same process, and the author describes the mod as a way to make the game more rewarding through difficulty. Mining and combat rewards rise in step with the danger, so the extra challenge pays off in loot.
Players must first defeat the Ender Dragon before the world can be turned into hardmode, a progression similar to the one in Terraria, where the dragon gates the same step. The author plans further new ores, enemies and loot, though the current release only increases mob difficulty. The author notes that the mod can be used in a modpack. Client and server both need Spirit's Hardmode, since the game rules and the mob changes are applied on the server and the client must match them.
The mod is published for Forge, with one file, 0.1.0 for 1.19.2, dated 2023-05-07. It is licensed as All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
Key features

Hardmode can only be enabled after the Ender Dragon has been killed, which sets the point where the harder world begins.
Harder mobs
Once hardmode is active, mobs take more effort to kill, and fights become the main test of the mode.
New ores
Ores that are not in the base game generate after hardmode is activated, giving miners new targets.
Rewards for mining and combat
Successful mining and combat yield larger rewards, offsetting the higher difficulty.
