Description

Welcome to the Hollow Knight Universe in Hytale!

This mod plans to add everything from both Hollow Knight games.

You can play this mod in Exploration Mode, being able to craft the three new Workbenches, that will let you craft Hornet's Mask, Needle, and Cloak!

There are some more extra items in Creative Mode, but most of these are unfinished and have no use!

For a better Exploration Mode experience, download the latest Beta version. If you like to play on creative, you can download the latest Alpha version for all the newer Creative-Only items.

Soul Fluid heals players in it, sometimes gives them mana, and alters their vision when submerged. It also  glows a lot.

Both fluids have particle effects.


More Info

The ideas for this mod come from the games Hollow Knight and Hollow Knight: Silksong developed by Team Cherry!

Some assets, like textures, are used from the game and edited to fit into Hytale.

Crafting recipes will likely change in the future when more materials are added.

I try to keep everything lore accurate to Hollow Knight.
