About this project
What does Climbing Claws add?

Climbing Claws is centered around fast, deliberate vertical traversal.
It features a dedicated off-hand climbing tool, wall and ceiling movement, controlled hanging and descent, custom enchantments, and survival-friendly progression.

Dedicated Vertical Traversal
Climbing Claws adds a dedicated climbing tool to Minecraft for players who want more freedom moving through the world.
Equip the claws in your off-hand, hold right-click to raise them, and use them to cling to solid surfaces as you climb.
Wall and Ceiling Movement
The claws let you scale sturdy walls and move along undersides.
They also allow you to hang in place when you stop moving, making careful positioning and vertical exploration much easier.
Controlled Descent and Mobility
Climbing Claws gives you more control while navigating difficult terrain.
You can descend slowly while sneaking, making drops, climbs, and awkward surfaces feel much more precise and manageable.
Custom Enchantments and Progression
Climbing Claws supports durability and survival progression with enchantment compatibility and special upgrades.
It includes the custom enchantments Wall Spring, which launches you upward while climbing, and Canopy Grip, which helps the claws latch onto partial surfaces such as leaves. The claws also work with enchantments like Unbreaking, Mending, Efficiency, Sharpness, and Fire Aspect.

There is also a community Discord, a YouTube channel, and a public GitHub organization.
