Wilder World
by 0xKY
Wilder World changes the natural world generation of Minecraft with a set of Fabric-only additions, including glowbrush plants, ebony bushes and a snowy biome update.
What it does
Glowbrush plants spawn golden particles, and when a player interacts with their brushes, the seeds disperse and new glowbrush plants take root nearby. A butterfly wing membrane and a decorative storage block for butterfly wings are included, along with an extinct plant that survives only as frozen packed ice. Ebony bushes yield ebony branches when harvested, and among the plants in the cold, only the barren shrubs can endure it.
The mod adds two ice cream foods: mint ice cream upgrades the player's effects by one level, and sweetberry ice cream heals. Items that have been fed to certain blocks can craft other items. A work-in-progress entity and a planned Snowy Plains biome update are noted by the author as near future work. Wilder World needs Creo API and Fabric API, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.20 and 1.20.1, and the latest build is 2.4.1 for 1.20.1. The code is open source under the MIT License.
