Death Enhancement — Vanilla Minecraft Datapack

This datapack adds strategic depth and fun to Minecraft survival by reworking how death events impact the player. Instead of simply respawning, each death has consequences — and potential benefits — that influence your journey.

Core Mechanics

First Death Bonus When a player dies from a new type of death (e.g., fall, fire, lava, mobs, etc.) for the first time, a positive buff is granted.
This reward gives players an edge, encouraging them to take risks and learn from their experiences.

Repeated Death Penalty If the player dies again from the same death type, the previously earned buff will be removed and may be replaced with a debuff.
This discourages repetitive mistakes and adds layers of strategic caution to survival gameplay.

Golden Apple Unlocks

When a player obtains a golden apple, it unlocks Item Crafting Recipe, including:

Protective Shield – Grants temporary extra protection
Debuff Removal – Removes one active negative effect

This mechanic turns golden apples into valuable strategic resources, not just food.
