Description

๐Ÿ‚ Seasonal Survival ๐ŸŒธ

Four real seasons that change the world, the weather and the way you survive.

โ„๏ธ Winter ยท ๐ŸŒฑ Spring ยท โ˜€๏ธ Summer ยท ๐Ÿ Autumn


๐Ÿ“… A living calendar

  • 4 seasons of 90 days each (a 360-day year, changeable in the config), with early, mid and late phases.
  • 12 months, the year starts in March.
  • The Calendar item shows a month page with a pointer on today. Hang it on a wall and it updates by itself.
  • Day length follows the season: long summer days, short winter days.

๐ŸŒก๏ธ Temperature and survival

  • A temperature model in ยฐC: biome, season, time of day, altitude, rain, oceans, caves and shelter.
  • The Thermometer shows the temperature around you. Its sprite changes with the weather, and a temperature HUD appears while you hold it.
  • Campfires, furnaces and especially lava warm you smoothly with distance, like a real gradient.
  • Leather armor keeps you warm, water cools you down.
  • Hypothermia: slowness first, then damage, with an icy frame on your screen.

๐ŸŒฆ๏ธ Weather and the world

  • Rainy autumns, stormy summers, snowy winters. Rain turns into snow in any biome when it gets cold.
  • Snow piles up into drifts (up to 7 layers) and slows you down. Water freezes from the shores and thaws in spring.
  • Lush summer greenery, golden dry autumn, withered winter grass.
  • Foliage changes color gradually, each tree at its own moment.
  • ๐Ÿƒ Oak, birch, dark oak and cherry trees shed their leaves in late autumn and grow them back in spring.
  • ๐Ÿฆ‹ Insects by day, fireflies by night, falling leaf particles.

๐ŸŒพ Farming

  • Crops grow depending on the local temperature. Heat-loving and cold-hardy crops are set through data tags.
  • Frost kills crops in the open. A roof, a cellar or a torch-lit greenhouse keeps them safe.
  • Animals will not breed in the cold in the open air.
