Project ZSTD is a Minecraft mod that introduces two new ores: Citrofite Ore and Netherite Ore, along with powerful new tools and armor.
Features:
Scythes: A new weapon type designed to strike multiple enemies at once, dealing damage in a wide area.
Citrofite Ore: A new ore that generates underground. It can be smelted into Pure Citrofite, which is used to craft Citrofite Ingots. These ingots are used to create tools and armor that are stronger than Netherite.

Netherite Ore: A new ore that generates in the Overworld. When mined, it drops Netherite Nuggets, which can be crafted into Netherite Scrap.

Citrofite Tools and Armor: A new tier of tools and armor made from Citrofite Ingots, offering superior durability and efficiency compared to Netherite.

Project ZSTD adds new resources and equipment to enhance your Minecraft experience, providing a stronger alternative to Netherite.
