About this project
What does Vibrant Worlds add?
Hello! and thank you for being interested in Vibrant Worlds
Vibrant Worlds is a mod that aims to make the world more varied
As of the beta, there are 6 biomes, some inspired by old biomes, and plenty of unique trees and plants!
This mod is more of a milder one, but still great!
The 6 biomes are..
Shrubland - a flat landscape of bushes, similar to the plains biome
Young Forest - a forest with smaller, less dense trees, and plenty of foliage
Marshland - a detailed swamp with cattails and weeping trees
Fertile Tundra - a snowy landscape with slim pine trees
Rainforest - a dense forest-jungle hybrid
Temperate Desert - a desert filled with large cacti
Here are some things that I plan to add in later updates -
Saplings for the new tree types,
Smaller Village-like structures (camps, cottages, etc),
New wood types,
MASSIVE trees
