What is Hunger Bound?
Hunger Bound is a hardcore SMP for those who want a real test. You start with 1 heart and can only get stronger by eating new foods. No easy mode here. Just pure Minecraft for the brave.
Core Features
- Start with 1 heart (2 HP)
- Gain health by eating different foods. Each new food gives +1 HP
- Max out at 42 HP (21 hearts)
- One death resets your progress
- Three deaths means auto-ban (time gets longer each time)
- Eat the same food three times? Get hit with Hunger, Nausea, or Poison
- Eat new foods for temporary buffs like Speed, Strength, and Regeneration
- All tracked by a custom advancement tree
- Progress saved per world, even after restarts
- World resets each season for a fresh start
Hardcore Systems
