Item & Block Additions

Sulfur Balls [Item]

Adult Sulfur Cubes now drop Sulfur Balls when killed. These are a crafting material but also a tool - when looking at a water block, you can use it to store water in a stackable, storable Hydrated Sulfur Ball item!

You can use the Hydrated Sulfur Ball again and it will place water where you're looking with a 50% chance.

Sulfur Balls can be used to feed baby Sulfur Cubes to make them grow up faster. Slimeballs can no longer be used as food.

This can't be used in Adventure Mode.

Cinnabar Feed [Item]

A paste of cinnabar and leaves, it can feed baby Sulfur Cubes as an alternative to Sulfur Balls. It is crafted in the Arbiter Workbench. Recipe: 3 Cinnabar top layer, 3 Leaves middle layer, 3 Cinnabar bottom layer. Makes 4x

Small Sulfur Cube [Item]

A small adult Sulfur Cube. It is crafted in the Arbiter Workbench from Sulfur Balls. When used it spawns a small-sized Sulfur Cube that's the same size as a baby one, but can consume blocks and be punched safely. Recipe: Any swallowable block surrounded by 8 Sulfur Balls

This can't be used in Adventure Mode.

Froglight Sulfate [Block]

New light source, that drops when any climate frog consumes a baby/small Sulfur Cube. It it similar to the Ochre Froglight but has a more sulfuric color. In the world, it will dissolve and drop as an item when surrounded by water from two or more sides.

New Mechanics

Snappy [Archetype]

These Sulfur Cubes will snap to the block grid when slowing down. They will constantly play a sound and particles. They can be used for puzzles or maps where you need a simple moveable mob. Sneaking near these will make them stop snapping to allow easier movement.

• Crafting Table

Closer to regular Sulfur Cubes, very bouncy and fast. Snaps to grid when it gets slow.

• Crafter

Very slow and doesn't have attack knockback, can only be pushed by a player. Perfect for moving one block at a time.

Sand & Gravel [Archetypes]

Have very little horizontal travel, but very high vertical travel. Sand expresses these traits better than Gravel.

New Recipes [Workbench]

• A recipe to make 2x Gunpowder out of Sulfur Balls, Charcoal, and Bone Meal.

• The Hydrated Sulfur Ball can be used as regular Water in Arbiter Workbench recipes.
