MC Modding Shenanigans

I’ve been pondering a lot about what other projects I could make and decided to make a Minecraft mod!
It has been a huge struggle, so many errors popping up that I can’t find the answers for, hours of configurating IntelliJ in hopes that it would finally work, the Minecraft client refusing to open for whatever reason. After all of those issues, I’ve finally made my first custom item!

The Work So Far:
Nothing really to be honest…Made a sapphire gem and learned the inner workings of adding items to Minecraft.

Next Course of Action:
Adding more items of course!! I also want to brush up on my pixel art (its lacking a lot right now..). Probably going to try and make ore blocks to drop the gems I make and give them actual purpose through crafting recipes.

Notes:
This WAS originally going to be a Kirby-themed modpack but I figured that was a little too far out of reach for right now, maybe in the near future.
