🪓 Survival Expansion
A mod that adds the features Mojang should’ve added years ago.
🌍 Overview
Survival Expansion redefines Minecraft’s survival mode with balanced, lore-friendly new content that deepens exploration and combat. Every mob, item, and mechanic is designed to feel like a natural evolution of vanilla Minecraft — the kind of additions that fit so well, you’ll wonder why they weren’t already in the game, and not reskins of mobs, but rather their own unique kind of mob.
🔮 MOBS & CREATURES
🟣 Coloblaze
A magical relative of the Blaze that inhabits dungeons.
The Coloblaze is a floating orange sphere with two cartoonish eyes, surrounded by three smaller orbs that shimmer with colorful lights. These orbiting spheres levitate through pure magic, making the Coloblaze look almost playful — until it attacks. While it doesn’t use magic, it fires fireballs that can ignite players briefly.
💀 Blizzard Zombie
Frozen zombies that roam the Ice Garden.
Blizzard Zombies are faster than standard zombies. Their icy bodies let them throw snowballs that sometimes freeze players they hit. Unlike most undead, they do not burn in daylight.
❄️ Glacier Slime
Created by Slime Machines found in icy biomes, Glacier Slimes are translucent blue creatures made of frozen gel. They don’t drop items, but they’ll pounce on players, dealing damage.
🩷 Gravity Slime
Spawned from Slime Machines, Gravity Slimes are pink creatures surrounded by a floating ring of dirt blocks. They don’t drop items either, but they’re also aggressive — constantly trying to leap at players.
🌺 Crimsweed
A hostile, plant-like entity found in the Nether.
Crimsweeds behave like a hybrid between a flower and a predator — rooted in place but fully alive. It attacks players that attack it first. When defeated, it drops the Crimson Roots it was hiding in, which are the same as the ones that don't have Crimsweeds in them.
🦠 Sculk Sludge
A creeping mass of living Sculk with 2 arms, 3 Sculk Eyes and 2 Warden tendrils found deep in the Deep Dark.
It will search for players to attack them. When defeated, it drops random Sculk blocks and many experience points, making it a renewable but risky source of Sculk material.
🕳️ Sculk Clawer
An aggressive Deep Dark predator resembling an egg-shaped mass of Sculk with claws and a single Sculk eye.
It will start flying once it has spawned, overlooking the area. When slain, it drops a single Sculk block and becomes a corpse which can be revived optionally, rewarding those brave enough to face it head-on.
🌳 Aspen
A gentle forest dweller that looks like a smaller, friendlier Creaking with a pale oak sapling on its head.
Aspen is nocturnal — active only at night — and becomes completely still and inactive during the day, blending into the environment like a statue. Hostile yet curious, they add a sense of quiet mystery to the Pale Garden.
👁️ Enderlooker
A stronger, more intimidating relative of the Enderman.
Besides Enderlookers having more health, they are not much different from Endermen.
⚙️ SPECIAL ITEMS & SECRETS
💾 Glitch Fragment
A mysterious object of broken code and static. Rarely found after world disturbances, this fragment can summon corrupted “glitched” entities:
- WIJVETHER – A glitched version of the Wither. It still works the same, as it shoots wither skulls.
- WARDROxEN – A corrupted Warden who is weaker than its original.
- ENDNIER DRAGONCg== – A glitched version of an Ender Dragon that has a shorter neck and tail than its original.
Each glitched mob can reward health boost or creative mode, but make sure to keep an eye for the effect that appears in the inventory if creative mode is earned.
🗝️ SLIME MACHINES
These mysterious mechanical machines appear in various biomes and produce unique slimes:
- Ice Machines → Glacier Slimes
- Gravity Machines → Gravity Slimes
Deactivating a machine with its key stops its spawning, but who built them — and why — remains unknown. For some reason, the Ender Slimes seem to be the only slimes without a slime machine.
💎 NEW STRUCTURES, BIOMES & LOOT
- Ice Garden: A frozen biome filled with Blizzard Zombies and Ice Cubes — decorative objects that contain other creatures (like creepers) trapped in ice. When broken, the imprisoned mob escapes.
- End Loot Chests: (Coming in v1.6) Scattered through the End dimension, these rare chests hold valuable gear and fragments from beyond the void.
v0.5: Demo release
v1 (The Survival Expansion + update): Added more content, all glitch fragment mobs reward effects, revamped and redesigned the Glacier Slime!
v1.5: Added the Gravity Slime and Coloblaze.
A video showcase would be great to get a feel for the mod :D
