Up We Go!
Up We Go! lets fireworks lift mobs and players into the air, with firework charges that change how the launch behaves.
What it does
Fireworks in this mod carry an upward force that moves entities, so a mob struck by a launched firework rises and keeps climbing while the rockets burn. The effect is built around entities rather than blocks, and the mod adds a small set of utility options to the fireworks themselves, which lets a player control how high and how long an entity travels. Firework charges alter the result, so a launch can be tuned without changing the rocket.
Entities that are lifted in mid-air can also take damage from the impact, which makes the mod useful for setting up traps or drops. The mod is a small addition to the Fabric ecosystem, aimed at adding a playful way to move mobs and players around a world. It is open source under the MIT License and can be run without any other mod. Files are published for 1.18 – 1.18.2 on Fabric only.
Key features
Entity launching
Fireworks lift mobs into the sky, and the upward movement continues while the firework keeps burning.
Player lifting
Players can be carried upward by fireworks, not only mobs, which gives a direct way to reach high points.
Firework charges
Firework charges added to a rocket change the launch, letting a player choose the shape of the lift.
Damage in mid-air
Entities lifted this way take damage when they are thrown or land, adding a hazard to the launch.
Compatibility

Use cases
Mob traps on a server
A server can use launched mobs to drop them onto spikes or into a pit, since the mod gives control over where entities go.
Reaching high points
A player can lift themselves onto a tall build or a cliff ledge without climbing, using a rocket with the right charges.
Who it’s for: Server owners who want playful mob movement, and players who like experimenting with firework launches. The mod is installed on the server alone, so players join without installing anything.
