After being developed for over a year (Since March 11th 2021), multiple updates after betas and version 1.0, bug testing, balance changes, plus more. I present to you the latest version of my modpack.

DucK's Spiced Survival is a system-friendly new take on survival minecraft. This modpack is 'relatively' lightweight and features dozens of new monuments to explore, improved biomes, dimensions, exploration, & so much more.

Spiced Survival started off as being a small project of mine to have on a private server with me and my friends who were growing tired of Vanilla Survival Minecraft. We wanted something with new challenges, opportunities, and above all the ability to become a world dominating god if a person put enough time into improving their character and their arsenal. This modpack was created to give Vanilla Minecraft a spicier take, a more "difficult" early game, with many possibilities coming mid-late game. This pack isn't too hardcore however can be more difficult at first than vanilla.

I recommend using between 4-6gb of dedicated ram while running this modpack. It is very lightweight and should not need more than somewhere within those boundaries.

I would also recommend using that one popular optimization mod, from that one website. But you need to go get that yourself.
