GestaltResonance

tl:dr JoJo inspired stand mod

What is a Gestalt? A Gestalt is a invasive soul you'll have to implant into a mob, harvest and awaken within yourself. After you successfully obtained a Gestalt, it acts as your own personal guardian and traversal tool. The Gestalt you awaken will depend on the mob you choose to implant the soul in.

disclaimer: The mod is designed for a casual signle player/coop experience, pvp balancing is non existant. The mods code has been writen assisted by Ai. Ai has not been used for any other part of the process.

The mod is designed in a way so you'll have to intentionally engage with it, I do not want to clutter your inventory with useless items you'll use once and never again. the only exception are some "tutorial" pages you can find through archaeology. These pages can be disposed by useing them as fuel in a furnace (burns 3 items).

Controls:

everything key has a crouch and rightclick variant

G - summoning and general Gestalt related actions (crouch tap for info screen, hold for exp siphon)

Z - first power tier

X - second power tier

C - third power tier

(rebindable in key config)

(The info screen shows currently available powers by lvl and skins)

Traversle options:

space while looking at a block mid air triggers a ledge grab

crouch while mid air touching a block at your side lets you wall slide

crouch space will let the gestalt throw you (boosted jump)

Pressing G when holding guard lets the Gestalt rip out your soul and lets reach a short distance away from your body. Your real body is vulnerable during this and you will get snapped back when your body is hit or your hunger gets too low. You can end this mode by either right clicking your body or Guard G again as an emergency exit. How far you can move away from your body is determined by your Gestalts RNG stat.

Everything past this are minor spoilers, if you want to go in blind you have all the information you need already

Why I made this mod:

I made this mod mostly for myself. I really like the concept of having a stand but I kinda don't need the JoJo flavor in minecraft. Few JoJo mods focus on the stand concept exclusively and are either outdated or add a whole bunch of random JoJo related items, I just simply wanted to create a more focused experience. IF you are not bothered by the JoJo flavor tho I can whole heartedly recommend the two mods Ripples of the Past and Roundabout the JoJo mod, they're honestly way more feature complete and vastly more refined than this is ever planned to be.
