Jerry's Mod — Guide

Mechanics

Pacifist Slimeball Crafting

To honor Jerry's memory, the mod provides a way to obtain Slimeballs without killing slimes. This is essential for players who wish to build a 'Jerry's Army' without harming the creatures. * Recipe: Combining Dirt, Lime Dye, and a Water Bucket (or Water Bottle) yields 4 Slimeballs.

Lightning Summoning

Using the Captain of Light item allows players to strike enemies with lightning. This mechanic is useful for charging creepers or dealing massive area damage, though it typically has a durability cost or cooldown.

Mobs

The mod centers around the interaction with Slimes, specifically the legendary Jerry variant. While it utilizes the vanilla Slime entity as a base, it adds specific behaviors and taming mechanics.

Jerry (The Slime)

Jerry is the primary focus of the mod. While he appears as a standard slime, he possesses a unique history and can be interacted with using specialized tools like the Slime Tamer.

Slime Variants

In the Slime Dimension, players will encounter various sizes of slimes that are native to the 'wet' biomes of that world. These slimes are the primary source of Slimeballs if the player chooses not to use the mod's alternative crafting recipes.

Items

Jerry's Mod introduces several tiers of items, primarily divided into 'Slime' tier and 'Jerry' tier. Jerry tier items are characterized by a bluish tint and superior stats.

Base Materials

• Slime Shard: Obtained by smelting Slime Ore. It is the fundamental component for mid-tier gear.
• Slime Gem: A high-value material created by surrounding a Slime Shard with Diamond Blocks.
• Jerry Gem: The ultimate crafting material, made by surrounding a Diamond Block with Slime Gems. It is used for the highest tier of equipment.
• Slime Stick: A specialized handle made from a stick and a slimeball, used in crafting Slime-tier tools.

Specialized Tools

• Captain of Light: A powerful artifact that, when right-clicked, summons a bolt of lightning at the player's crosshair.
• Slime Tamer: An item designed to tame slimes (functionality varies by version, intended to make slimes follow the player).
• Jerry's Sword: A legendary weapon crafted with Jerry Gems and Blaze Rods. It deals significantly higher damage than Diamond swords.
• Slime Head: A decorative item used for creating Jerry memorials or shrines.

Armor Sets

• Slime Armor: Lime green in color, providing protection slightly better than Iron.
• Jerry Armor: Bluish-tinted armor that is incredibly strong and highly configurable. It is considered 'forbidden gear' in the mod's lore due to its high defensive capabilities.

Blocks

The mod adds several blocks that facilitate progression and world-building.

Slime Ore

Slime Ore is a naturally occurring resource found deep underground. It emits a faint light in dark places, making it easier to spot during mining expeditions. It has a duller green hue compared to Emerald Ore.

Olive Trees

Native to the Slime Biome within the Slime Dimension, Olive Trees are a unique flora addition. * Olive Wood: A decorative wood type. * Olives: An edible food source dropped from the leaves of Olive Trees. * Olive Saplings: Used to replant Olive Trees in the overworld.

Biomes & Dimensions

The Slime Dimension

The Slime Dimension is a unique realm primarily consisting of 'dry land' with scattered 'Slime Biomes' which are the only wet areas in the dimension. It is the natural habitat of Jerry and his kin.

• Slime Biome: A lush, wet biome where Olive Trees grow and slimes spawn frequently. It is the primary location for gathering mod-specific organic resources.
