The Angry Ghast
by bo_bo
With The Angry Ghast installed, players can fight three new Ghast-themed bosses, each placed in a different dimension of the game.
What it does
The mod adds three bosses themed on the Ghast, one in each dimension: the Overworld, the Nether and the End. A boss is reached by a set of steps: the first step is finding the Burnt Ghast cave, and players then craft a summoning item in a sequence the author recommends following in order, though the notes describe it as recommended rather than required. Healing a surrounding area with a Snow Crafting Table is part of the path to a summon, and a Healed Ghast is placed on the ground in the matching dimension, where the boss appears after a few seconds.
The mod is published for Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. The code is not open source and is released under All rights reserved, and the author has an issue tracker for reports.
