A mod about gum-themed consumables, with unique buffs to go with them.
It is highly recommended that you use JEI in conjunction with this mod.
Adds two items, Gumobtainium and Gumbium. The former can be used to give yourself "gum hearts" that absorb any amount of damage, and regenerate after a few seconds, and the latter locks your hunger to be at least half full. They're made with weird methods specific to the mod.
It also adds Gelatin, which is primarily a crafting ingredient, but also a good food on its own. Gelatin Nuggets can be eaten quickly and mainly give saturation.
Gumobtainium is no longer incompatible with Mantle as of version v1.26! (and probably Scaling Health too? requires testing)
If you're gung-ho about using a version of Gumobtainium earlier than v1.26, this fork of Mantle will probably work, but do not expect support from me or the developers of Mantle.
I think this mod deserves way more downloads, it just feels necessary to have a way to get more life in Minecraft. The way Terraria adds them is unbalanced, but I don't think it shouldn't exist at all like in Minecraft. This mod adds it, but more balanced than Terraria. This feels like something I can never NOT have after downloading it.

I'm so glad you like it.
The point isn't really to be "balanced," that's why you can change most of the values in the config.
I didn't design it with the intent to be overpowered, though. We don't need more mods doing that.

Hey, it's me on a different account. Can you please update this mod to modern versions like 1.16.5 and 1.18.1? I'd really like to be able to have these powerups in a balanced way, but there is no mod for 1.16.5 or 1.18.1 that does it. I understand if you can't, but it would be beneficial to me and others who enjoyed this mod. Thank you - Gid.
In reply to TheGidiot492:
I'd like to bring this to modern versions someday. Probably in a different form, though.

I find the abilities to be overpowered for what they can do, which could be useful in the right modpacks. Will say that the little touches and details of the items jumping out the character's hand with the little noise and the text that comes up when trying to eat both gums again, very nice and appreciated. Little details go along way. Also discovered that the character bounces when falling from a large height; again, nice detail.
Thank you guys for creating this mod.
In reply to DWX12:
If you find the current limits overpowered, keep in mind you can modify the gum heart cap in the configs. I can try my best to implement more configs if you have any other suggestions.
Thank you for the kind words. <3

Thank you for replying and if I come up with any ideas I will share them with you. I can see this mod working well in a dungeon or combat heavy modpack.
I hope that you will continue with the level of detail you guys put into this mod in your future projects and that you will consider porting it to newer versions of Minecraft so it will be available for others to enjoy.
In reply to DWX12:
I'd love to update it! You can see a couple of ideas slated out on our issue tracker.
I'm not really a programmer, though.. so progress is slow. I'd love to get it to new versions, but I'd want it to be feature complete on 1.12 first.
can we get more pics?
In reply to saphyjay:
there's not much more to show than what's there. what'd you have in mind? i can try to add some real quick.
In reply to saphyjay:
gumobtainium is not a mod that adds (nor will ever add) ores. i find them unnecessary for a mod of this scope.
i've added some screenshots of the items you can currently find in the mod however, as well as gentle demonstration of the core crafting mechanic.
