HarderCore

Vanilla Hardcore is a joke. HarderCore fixes that.

HarderCore is a vanilla plus mod that changes Hardcore completely. Available for both NeoForge and Fabric.

All features are strictly active only when playing in Hardcore mode.

🟪 Custom UI

• Purple Hearts: Replaces the default Hardcore hearts with custom purple hearts.

🩸 Healing & Health Mechanics

• Disabled Totems: Totems of Undying are completely disabled.
• No Natural Regen: Natural health regeneration is turned off entirely.
• Gapple Cooldown: Eating a Golden Apple or Enchanted Golden Apple triggers a 10-second cooldown on both items.

☠️ Environmental & Movement Hazards

• Midnight Spawn: Hardcore worlds spawn you directly at 14,000 ticks (midnight).
• Pitch Black Blindness: Standing in light levels of 3 or lower inflicts instant Blindness.
• Crippling Fall Damage: Taking any fall damage immediately applies Slowness II.
• Heavy Armor Weight: Armor weighs you down heavily:
• 12+ Armor Points: Applies Slowness I
• 18+ Armor Points: Applies Slowness II

⚠️ Debuffs

• Total Insomnia (No Sleeping): Sleeping is completely disabled. You cannot skip the night.
• Low Health Death Spiral: Dropping to 6 HP or lower (3 hearts or less) inflicts Mining Fatigue II and Weakness I.
