From Modrinth

Rebalanced health progression. You start with only 5 hearts. Find more through exploration, and with no auto-regen, every hit counts.

❤️ Heart Mod – Expanded Health & Healing System for Minecraft

Overview

This mod rebalances gameplay by encouraging exploration through collectible Heart Crystals that increase health while adding a base-focused healing system with auto-regeneration turned off, requiring players to be more careful and avoid mistakes.


Key Features

  • Dynamic Health Progression

Start with 5 hearts (10 HP). Collect the new item, Heart Crystal. Each Heart Crystal increases your max health by 1 heart (2 HP). You can find them only in naturally generated chests.
