Majrusz's Progressive Difficulty Port (Unofficial)

An AI-made, unofficial NeoForge 1.21.1 port of Progressive Difficulty by Majrusz17 — a mod that steadily increases Minecraft's difficulty the longer your world survives.

Vanilla Minecraft stops being scary the moment you craft full diamond gear. This mod fixes that: the world grows more dangerous the further you progress, and rewards you with unique mobs, events, gear, and loot along the way.

⚙️ How it works — Game Stages

The world advances through three difficulty stages, and mobs, events, and threats all scale with them:

• Normal Mode — "Everything seems so peaceful." Vanilla-like, with a few new surprises.
• Expert Mode — "The ancient spirits of light and dark have been released." Enemies grow tougher and gain new tricks.
• Master Mode — "Impending doom approaches..." The deadliest tier, with the strongest foes and events.

Progression can be global (shared across the server) or per-player, and almost everything is configurable.

☠️ Features

• New mobs — Cerberus, Tank, Cursed Armor, Creeperling, Illusioner, and the Giant, each with custom models and behavior.
• The Undead Army — a multi-wave siege that marches on you after you disturb the undead. Survive every wave to earn a Treasure Bag; on Expert and Master it is empowered by Nether forces.
• Blood Moon — a periodic blood-red night when the world turns especially hostile.
• Bleeding — a lethal damage-over-time effect inflicted by sharp weapons, zombies, and spiders. Stop it with a Bandage — or a Golden Bandage to heal others. (Undead don't bleed.)
• Treasure Bags — themed reward bags from major encounters: Angler (fishing), Raid, Elder Guardian, Wither, Ender Dragon, Warden, and the Undead Army.
• New gear & items — the Enderium tier (Shard → Ingot → full tools & armor), Soul Jar, Wither Sword, Tattered armor, Recall Potion, Ender Pouch, combat scrolls, and more.
• Advancements for every major milestone, plus a deeply configurable rule set to tune the whole experience.
