The Sweet Tales Update mod adds 26 different jams with countless combinations, a special jam pot, and a jam-making mini-game. It introduces the Earth Shroud tribe, featuring underground villages, new decorations, and three unique weapons. Additionally, complete a special structure to summon an explosive boss in their shrines.

Here's what it adds:
- 26 Different Jams: Players can create thousands of jam combinations using various ingredients.
- Jam Pot: A special pot is added for jam production. Jams are made from a maximum of two different ingredients, sugar, a jar, and some water, all crafted in the pot.
- Mini-Game Crafting: You can make jams directly in the pot or try the mini-game crafting for some fun and bonus effects. There is also extras you can use in all jams. Like milk bucket. This extra is used for removing all negative effects. All jams have 4 stage to eat and you can place them in ground for decorating
But that's not all! The mod introduces an ancient tribe of jam experts called the Earth Shroud. These creatures live in underground villages and there are a total of 5 different villages and 1 shrine.
- Earth Shroud Tribe: They farm mushrooms and breed creatures called Mossy Walkers. They eat dried meat, which you can now also dry and eat in the game. They love jams! Due to their short stature, be careful not to hit your head on their ceilings when entering their homes.
- Decoration Blocks: We added a decoration block that is half glass and half wood, which can be placed in any direction unlike Mojang's blocks. It also has a unique look when two different slabs are combined.
Additionally, the mod includes three new weapons used by the Earth Shrouds: a staff, a spear, and a blowgun.
- Boss Fight: In the Earth Shroud shrines, you need to complete a special structure to summon a boss. There are nine pillars; place Redstone Cores on the outer pillars, Ender Pearls on the inner ones, and a Drum in the center. Right-click the Drum until the music stops. Be careful, as this will spawn an explosive boss!
Since I made this mod for a competition, I couldn't include everything I wanted. But Im going to add all the things i wanted. So Im planning to get this mod updated
Thank you to everyone who downloads and plays the mod!
There's a jam crafting mechanic where all jams are made from a maximum of two different items, plus sugar, a jar, and water. Extras can be added to all jams. Spoons haven't been added yet but will be part of the mini-game. There are two crafting methods: direct crafting, where you place items and wait, and a mini-game. In the mini-game, you must click when the select bar is over the green bar to gain bonuses before time runs out. Bonuses can be negative and affect the duration of the jam's effects. Also all jam recipes are supported by just enough items mod.

I want to create a Google Forms link for everyone playing the mod. Anyone can submit their desired jam recipe and its effects. This way, I can add up to three player-suggested jams in the next update.
Stage 1: Fixing small bugs, adding spoons, introducing more significant jams, including additional village and shrine variations.
Stage 2: Implementing earth shroud animations (it was animated but time constraints didn't allow), utilizing pillars to showcase all items, addressing issues with half doors, and incorporating all types of woods.
Stage 3: Initially, I had grander plans for the boss stage, such as having earth shrouds assist in the boss fight and requiring players to consult with a shaman to perform a ritual for summoning the boss. I'll endeavor to include these features.
like fifth comment about this but using AI for the thumbnail kind of brings down the rest of the mod that looks well made and took actual effort
AI just sounds lazy tbh
