Wither's penguin mod
Wither's penguin mod adds penguins as a mob that spawns in icy biomes, along with a food item that uses ice cocoa beans and milk.
What it does
Penguins appear as a mob in icy biomes, so players can find them while exploring cold terrain. A food item is crafted from ice cocoa beans and milk, and its recipe calls for a Pinder Kingui ingredient as well. Two new achievements are added for these features.
The mod is light in scope and described by its author as a simple addition that adds only a few things. It runs on the client and the server, so both need it installed. Files are published for Forge only, across six game versions 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, under the MIT License, and the source code is open source with a public issue tracker.
