Bafmaster's "Literally Just a Katana" Mod
A simple, but fun mod for Minecraft that adds one thing, and one thing only: a katana. It slices, it dices, and that's about it. Awaken your inner archeologist and you might just find the katana in a desert well, or failing that, it can be crafted with some iron, gold, and a few red carpets.
I'm sold, but what are the specs?
- 6 Attack damage, with a 2.5 attack speed.
- The same durability as an iron sword, hopefully.
- 16x16 Texture resolution.
- Optional, but cool 3D katana model, increasing the fear of your enemies by 69%
Requires
- Minecraft 1.20.1
- Fabric for 1.20.1
- The Fabric Kotlin Extension
- Fabric API (I think, most mods do?)
Also of interest...
What perhaps makes this mod somewhat special is that it was written nearly entirely by ChatGPT, which I as someone with no knowledge of Java or Kotlin, was able to make function. If you take the time out of your day to try it out, I hope it brings you some joy. Also, the 2D katana texture was made mostly by Stable Diffusion 2.1 using this lora. Check it out, it's quite fancy!
