Delish
Delish is a Minecraft modification that offers a completely new approach to the game's food system, focusing on quality and uniqueness rather than quantity.
Core Concept
Unlike most food mods that add hundreds of generic dishes, this project creates genuinely valuable and interesting content. Our goal is to make players want to try absolutely all available food items while receiving real advantages beyond just simple saturation.
Principles of food addition:
- Uniqueness: every item features special mechanics or unusual concepts
- Usefulness: food provides compelling reasons for creation and consumption
- Stockpiling: even complex meals can be prepared repeatedly
- Utility: many products can serve as ingredients for more valuable items
Tools and Mechanics
Cleavers
Used for processing items into different components. Simply click one item on another in the inventory or use a shapeless crafting recipe.
Specific mob benefits:
- Chicken: + raw chicken
- Pig: + pork chop
- Spider: + spider eye
- Villager: + rotten flesh
- Bat: + rotten flesh
- Bee: + spider eye
- Wolf: + rotten flesh
- Turtle: + turtle egg
- Camel: + beef
- Frog: + raw chicken
- Wither Skeleton: + wither fragments
Preservation Jars
Preservation jars allow items to ferment and age. Place an item in the jar, wait for it to mature (the jar wobbles during processing), then retrieve the result.
Stacking Mechanics for Sandwiches
Many food items can be combined into sandwiches. Create multi-layered constructions from any food items — quantity is unlimited!
When eating a sandwich, you gain all effects from its components, ignoring saturation limits. After consumption, remnants like bowls, buckets, and bottles will be dropped. This mechanic is perfect for instant saturation or receiving multiple effects simultaneously.
Food as Power-ups
The enhancement system draws inspiration from Realm of the Mad God mechanics. Certain rare food items provide permanent stat bonuses, while "endgame" dishes grant unique super-abilities.
Upon death, the character loses all accumulated buffs — a feature that balances the powerful effects while encouraging strategic resource gathering.
Available enhancements:
Cookieball - movement speed Cave salad - mining speed Sky candy - fall damage immunity Smelling century egg - protection Hearty sandwich - maximum health Nature's bounty - replenishable undying will Keen observation - creative flight (consoles air bubbles) Essence of satiety - permanent food safety
Future Plans
Currently implemented content focuses mainly on overworld and endgame items. Future updates may expand with hellish, distant, and fragmentary food additions.
Note: active development has been temporarily paused for other projects.
