Venerium

Venerium

An extraordinary resource. An unprecedented opportunity. A potentially catastrophic mistake.

Venerium introduces a mysterious crystalline substance into Minecraft. Harvest its valuable resources, develop new technology, and explore a changing world, but beware. Left unchecked, Venerium spreads, contaminates the environment, and transforms the creatures living within it.

Current Features

• Living Contamination — Watch Venerium spread across the landscape, transforming blocks, vegetation, and entire regions.
• Dynamic Wildlife — Encounter strange creatures, mutated survivors, territorial predators, and dangerous aberrations. Some can even become your companions.
• Scrapy Technology — Build machines to crush, refine, and process resources, extract valuable minerals, and manage energy, items, and fluids.
• Automated Harvesting — Deploy Harvesters to collect Venerium crystals and deliver them to storage depots.
• Containment & Survival — Monitor pollution with a scanner, protect yourself from exposure, and use Sonic Injectors to suppress spreading.
• Meteor Events — Summon Venerium-bearing meteors and witness their devastating impact on the environment.

The Choice Is Yours

Will you build an industry around Venerium's extraordinary potential, or watch your world slowly fall under its influence?

In careful hands, it can become paradise. In careless ones, your worst nightmare.

Getting Started

Your journey begins with a Signal Beacon.

Craft and place the beacon, then right-click it to request a meteor strike. After a short countdown, a meteor will crash nearby, bringing Venerium into your world.

From there, the choice is yours: harvest the crystals, explore the contaminated area, and begin developing your technology.

Pollution & Containment

Venerium isn't just a resource. It's a growing environmental threat.

As pollution increases, the surrounding area becomes more dangerous, exposing living creatures to Venerium poisoning and allowing contamination to spread through the landscape.

Use the Pollution Scanner to monitor affected areas and identify spreading risks.

To contain the infestation, place a Sonic Injector in the affected chunk and supply it with Sonic Crystal Dust or Charged Sonic Crystals. While powered, the injector suppresses spreading within that chunk.

Remember: Containment stops the spread, but it doesn't remove existing contamination. Handle active crystals and spreaders with caution!

Venerium is still in early development. Expect ongoing improvements, balancing changes, and new content.

An in-game Guide Book will be introduced in the next update, providing more detailed information about Venerium, its technology, and its dangers.
