BetterThanMite
A hardcore Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.16.5 that makes the game truly punishing. If vanilla Minecraft feels too easy, this mod will change your mind.
Features
❤️ Health & Hunger
- 3 hearts base health — you start with only 6 HP instead of 20
- +1 heart every 5 XP levels — grind experience or stay fragile
- Hunger is tied to health — max hunger always equals max health. Gain a heart, gain hunger capacity. Lose hearts, and your hunger cap shrinks too
- Passive regen only when well-fed — you only regenerate health when hunger is at or near max, and it costs saturation/food to do so
🧟 Hostile Mobs
- 1.2× more hostile mob spawns at night — extra zombies, skeletons, creepers, spiders, endermen, witches, and slimes spawn near players in darkness
- Difficulty forced to Hard — always. No switching to Peaceful or Easy
- /difficulty command is blocked — you cannot change it
🐄 Passive Mobs
- 1.3× fewer passive mob spawns — animals are scarce, making food and resources harder to obtain
⛏️ Mining & Movement
- 1.5× slower mining — breaking blocks takes significantly longer
- 1.2× slower movement — you can't outrun danger as easily
💀 Damage & Drops
- 1.5× less damage dealt by the player — fights are harder and longer
- 1.5× fewer block drops — every resource matters, waste nothing
🦘 Jump Hunger
- Every jump costs 1 food point — spamming jump will starve you
- Jump hunger drain stops at 2 food points — you won't die from jumping alone, but you'll be too weak to sprint or regen
