Lava Monsters

Adds monsters that spawn in lava.

🔥 Summary

If you’ve ever found yourself bored once you mine down to lava because it stops hostile mobs from spawning, then this is the mod for you! This is a small mod that adds a new hostile monster to the game that spawns in lava and spits fireballs at you. Lava monsters’ spawning conditions can be adjusted in a handy-dandy properties file!
