Soul Harvest: The Undead Challenge

A High-Stakes Survival Mini-Game for the Hytale "New Worlds" Contest.

🗡️ The Experience

In Soul Harvest, the world has been cursed. The only way to survive and claim victory is to harvest the essence of the restless dead. This mod transforms the standard survival loop into a targeted hunt, challenging players to collect 50 Ghostly Soul Essences to break the curse.

⚙️ Key Features

Soul Collection Mechanic: Zombies now have a custom loot table, dropping rare "Soul Essences" upon defeat.

Custom Game Rules: Tailored starting health and restricted building rules to keep the focus on combat and movement.

Win Condition: A hard-coded victory state that triggers once the harvest is complete.

Data-Driven Design: Built entirely using Hytale’s JSON component system for maximum stability and performance.

📱 Technical Milestone: 100% Mobile Developed

This project was created as a testament to the accessibility of Hytale’s modding tools.

Coding: Written in QuickEdit (Mobile Text Editor).
