Damage and critical bursts
Immediate particle responses make ordinary and critical hits visually distinct.
Responsive blood trails, pools, bursts and bleeding effects.
Full overview
PixelBlood adds responsive combat feedback through particles, trails, pools, splashes and optional bleeding damage. It is designed to make hits feel heavier without requiring a resource pack or replacing Minecraft combat.
Effects can be tuned separately for players, bosses, hostile mobs and passive mobs. This lets a server create dramatic boss fights while keeping routine animal or farm interactions restrained.
How it works
Damage events create immediate bursts, critical hits can receive stronger presentation and wounded entities can leave temporary trails or pools. Death effects provide a final visual response without permanently changing the world.
Optional bleeding adds a short damage-over-time mechanic with configurable duration, interval and damage. Protection checks and category controls help the feature fit both PvE and PvP environments.
Administration
World restrictions, damage-source cooldowns, effect sizes, particle behaviour and bleeding values are configurable. The project also includes update checking, metrics and protection-aware behaviour for production use.
