Description

Rise and Survive is a progression-based apocalypse addon where zombies grow stronger every day.

 

Evolving Zombies & Growing Difficulty

  • A dynamic difficulty bar increases every day, boosting zombie spawn rates.
  • Every 8 days, zombies move faster, grow stronger, and may unlock new abilities.
  • Higher difficulty = higher chance of zombies spawning with armor and weapons.

Unique Zombie Classes - Each zombie type brings new threats, new behaviors, and new strategies:

  • Miner Zombies – break blocks to reach you (faster on higher difficulty).
  • Block Placer Zombies – tower up, bridge, and chase you no matter how high you build.
  • Witch Zombies – throw and drink potions.
  • Bomber Zombies – throw TNT (damage-only).
  • Ender Zombies – teleport using ender pearls.
  • Jumpers – leap at you and onto blocks.
  • Crawlers – crawl through small spaces.
  • Revealers – scream to expose your location, then flee.
  • Spitter - shoots spit from a distance.

Horde Leaders

  • Giant – jumps and summons fangs.
  • Tank – incredibly tough.
  • Necromancer – summons more zombies.
  • Zombies can also spawn with various potion effects like Speed or Fire Resistance.
  • All vanilla hostile mobs are disabled, but their loot is obtainable by killing zombies.

Horde & Blood Moon System

  • Bloodmoon occurs every 8 days
  • Hordes spawn randomly 15 blocks away, always aware of your location.
  • Horde size scales with difficulty (customizable in settings).

Blood Moon:

  • Sleep disabled
  • 100% chance of 1–2 horde events
  • Zombies always know where you are

World Interaction

  • Using horns or bells attracts zombies instantly.
  • Taking damage releases blood scent (detectable up to 10 blocks).
  • Faster Java-style regeneration included.
  • Craft-able gunpowder (coal + iron nugget).
  • High quality structures with loot.

Infection System

  • Zombies can infect players on hit.
  • Infection chance customizable (0–100%).
  • Infected players will collapse after the timer.
  • Golden Apple = the only cure.

Visual Enhancements

  • Blood screen effects (with compatible visual packs).
  • New zombie skins & animations (Fresh Animations inspired).
  • Realistic block-breaking particles.
  • Glowing eye effects when using Vibrant Visuals.

New Blocks & Defenses

  • Wired Fence
  • Cheval Fence
  • Wired Wall
  • Chain fence (they can't break it until difficulty: 75.0)
  • Spiked Plate
  • Spiked Fence (zombies can’t break the reinforced one)

  • These blocks damage zombies and help control hordes.

New Weapons

  • Bolo – chops wood
  • Katana – fast slashes
  • Dagger – rapid attacks
  • Saber – huge sweeping damage
  • Longsword – wide sweep radius
  • Hammer – powerful crit hits

Rotten flesh becomes useful:

  • Raw Flesh → Cooked Flesh → Leather

If you want a hardcore, cinematic, mechanically deep zombie apocalypse, this is the add-on you’ve been searching for. Everything evolves. Everything hunts you. Every day is harder than the last.
