Better Cave Dweller Delight
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.20. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
I didn't feel that The Cave Dweller added enough and most Dweller mods felt incomplete. So I decided to add some loot drops. There was another version but…
I don't know my version or loader
Cave Dweller Delight
Ever found that most cave dweller mods don't feel finished or polished? That most of the time you can kill one and it doesn't feel rewarding because usually there are no drops, essentially making it useless? Well I thought that too so I looked at Farmer's Delight and thought.. What if you eat one?
Cave Dweller Head design is not by me. You can find the original model Here. Everything else is designed, coded and modelled by me. Cave Dweller is a Mob made by Gargin.
Features
Unique Cave Dweller Drops
Killing the Cave Dweller now drops a Cave Dweller leg which you can cook into a large array of food from Pastys in the Crafting Table or a Pie in the Cooking Pot. Or place the Cave Dweller Leg on a cutting board to make a new weapon!
Survival-Friendly Progression
The idea of this mod was to make this feel rewarding upon killing a cave dweller! And such there's new advancements and reasons to try to farm these monsters.
Modpack Friendly
Built for Minecraft Forge 1.20.1, it works with any of the more popular Cave Dweller 1.20.1 mods, essentially working on most mod reskins, as there are plenty. It has virtually no hard dependencies, not even to Farmer's Delight even though that removes recipes. So go wild!
