Sweet Not Savoury
by xstarlotte
Sweet Not Savoury is a NeoForge mod by xstarlotte that adds sweet-themed creatures, paintings and plushies to snowy biomes, and it is a work in progress.
What it does
The mod expands on sweet-themed creatures. Its mobs spawn only in snowy biomes, and the author describes it as a hobby project worked on since 2016. Earlier versions reached over 300 entities, and the current release concentrates on a smaller set of creatures with many other features still planned.
Tameable mobs are slightly stronger on average than a wolf. Cats can be bred or tempted with Candy Cane Sugar, and a tame is made by crafting a Candy Cane from that sugar. The sugar comes from harvesting Candy Cane sugar cane, which villagers and wandering traders also sell. Ambient mobs drop food items the way chickens drop chicken, while hostile mobs move faster and drop only experience. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files exist for NeoForge across 1.21.1 – 1.21.4.
