hardcorify
adds an additional heart that changes depending on how many hours you have lived. the heart itself has no effect on gameplay and does not give any…

You want to feel hardcore sensations, but do not want to lose your world? Than this mod is for you!
what does hardcorify do?
it adds an overlay near the hotbar that visually displays the number of days you have lived without dying.
basic glassed heart
every time you pass a certain amount of time, your heart changes color slightly.
40 hours heart
BUT IF YOU DIE, the heart will change back to the default color. This modification does not affect gameplay, so you can safely try to play with it on some servers idk.
At the moment the mod provides 22 textures of hearts for 50 hours of “hardcore” without deaths.
Also built into the mod is a glass heart mode, the shell of which disappears every time the player takes damage. (good luck getting to 50 hours of gameplay without taking damage lol)
on the "j" button you can see the exact number of seconds your character lives. I think that's it, I'm a total zero in programming but I managed to make something cool ig. enjoy the game!
