Core & World Generation 🌹

Beta‑style terrain: Amplified height variation with zero generated structures (no villages, strongholds, witch huts, jungle temples, nether fortresses, etc.). Monster rooms with spawners and chests will still generate.
Loading indicator: Added a progress bar during world creation.
Hunger mechanic removed: Food restores health directly, true to the classic Beta experience.
No coordinates: You start with a simple compass (which always points North) and an Antique Atlas that dynamically draws a map as you explore the world.
Unrestricted progression: No recipe book and no achievement system.
Beauty in simplicity: No End dimension, Ender Dragon, End Cities, or Elytra.

Backpacks: Your inventory starts with only 9 visible slots; backpacks unlock the other 27 slots.
Paraglider: Glide safely from high altitudes.
Grappling hook: Rapid vertical climbing and traversal.
Vehicle coupling: Link boats and minecarts together using springs.
Immersive horse controls: Riding is significantly more responsive and realistic.
Backported mechanics: Fast swimming mechanics and a reduced sneak hitbox (1.5 blocks).
Portable rest: Sleeping bags and hammocks allow you to sleep through the night without resetting your spawn point.

Throwable TNT: Right-click while holding the flint and steel in the other hand to throw TNT. Both TNT and creepers can now deal underwater explosion damage.
Improved melee: Sword swings can hit entities through tall grass without breaking it.
Realistic explosion physics: Destroyed blocks fly in all directions with realistic physics.
Crossbows (backported): The heir to the classic bow from 1.14.
New arrow types: New explosive arrows and torch arrows.
Unobtrusive shields: Shields are lowered on the screen to improve visibility.
Item drop physics: Dropped items fall with realistic weight and momentum.
Nether changes: Blazes spawn naturally throughout the Nether, allowing you to obtain blaze rods for brewing even without fortresses.
Enhanced fire: Utilizes Better Burning mod mechanics.

Crafting tables: Items remain inside the grid when the UI is closed, and the current recipe is visually displayed on top of the block.
XP Storage: Furnaces accumulate and store XP (backported mechanic).
Carryable storage: Pick up chests, hoppers, dispensers, and droppers (shift + right‑click) without breaking them and dropping their contents.
Compact chests: Chests can be placed directly adjacent to each other without needing a one‑block gap.
Trash slot: Added a dedicated trash slot to the inventory UI.
Mouse Tweaks: Fast and intuitive item management (drag, shift‑click).
Boat storage: Chests can be placed in boats.

Sitting: Right‑click to sit on stairs and slabs.
Easy harvest: Right‑click to harvest crops. Right‑click a snow layer with a shovel to instantly remove it.
Dirt to Grass: Use seeds on a dirt block to grow grass.
Free repairs: Anvils no longer require XP to use.
In‑game gallery: Browse your screenshots directly using the built‑in viewer.
Pet interactions: Right‑click tamed dogs to pat them.
Instant building: Removed block placement delay.
Improved sign editing: Right‑click to edit text on a sign after it has been placed.
Fast ladders: Look down while on a ladder to slide down quickly.
Double doors: Adjacent doors open simultaneously when interacting with one.

Pistons can push/pull items and move block entities (tile entities).
Added new vanilla‑style stairs, slabs, and walls in various materials.
Enhanced, more realistic fire visual effects.
Map tooltips and map markers added (place an ink sac and the map in the crafting grid).
No potion shift (the inventory GUI no longer shifts sideways when under status effects).
Improved shift‑click crafting behavior.
Items will visually flash shortly before despawning.
Armor stands generate with arms by default.
Axes instantly break leaf blocks.
Baby zombies now burn in sunlight.
Chickens periodically shed feathers.
right‑click dirt with a shovel to create a dirt path.
Wool can be dyed and re‑dyed into any color.
Endermen anti‑cheese: They will actively break blocks if you try to hide under a 2‑block‑high ceiling.
Hoes harvest a 5×5 area of crops.
Slabs can be crafted back into full blocks.
Stair recipes yield 8 stairs instead of 4.
Slime blocks bounce entities off walls, not just floors.
Squids defend themselves by blinding you with ink.
Wet sponges can be instantly dried by placing them in the Nether.
Note blocks play mob sounds when a corresponding mob head is placed on top.

Wooden tools removed: Wooden tools are removed — you cannot mine stone with them.
Stone tools overhaul: Now require flint instead of cobblestone.
Uncraftable items: Beacons (no fortresses = no wither skeletons = no nether stars) and Eyes of Ender (to prevent crafting End Crystals).
Added custom recipes for: Saddles, horse armor, chainmail armor (crafted from iron nuggets), enchanted golden apples, sponges, slimeballs, strings, and mossy cobblestone & stone bricks (can be crafted using grass, not just vines).
Netherrack drops: Mining netherrack has a 10% chance to drop nether wart.
Backported items & mechanics:
- Copper ore, copper tools, and a full copper armor set.
- Scaffolding (can be made from regular sticks instead of bamboo (there are no bamboo plants in 1.12.2)).
- Campfires cannot be crafted in a grid. Assemble them on the ground — shift + right‑click to place sticks, then use flint to ignite.

3D Skins: Voxel second‑layer skins display as 3D overlays instead of flat textures.
Dynamic Capes: Capes animate and flow in the wind.
