The Gold Fish

🌟 Overview

Terraria Goldfish is a lightweight Forge 1.20.1 mod that faithfully recreates the beloved Goldfish mob from Terraria. Designed with immersive custom AI, this mod bridges the gap between aquatic life and land exploration during rainy weather.

🎮 Key Features

• Amphibious AI: Goldfish swim naturally in rivers, lakes, and dark underground caves, but when it starts raining, they will step onto the land and walk around!

• Terraria Rain Mechanics: Caught on land after the rain stops? The goldfish will flop around for a short period, desperately trying to find water before safely despawning.

• 4 Unique Variants:

  • 🐟 Normal: Classic orange goldfish.

  • 🎩 Hatted: Wears a stylish block-rendered top hat.

  • ✨ Golden: Shimmering golden texture with wax-on particle effects.

  • 👑 Golden + Hatted: The ultimate legendary variant in solid gold.

• Fully Bucketable: Catch any goldfish variant in a bucket! The bucket item dynamically updates its texture and NBT tags to preserve the fish’s exact status (Golden/Hat).

• Custom 3D Model & Animations: Built from scratch with Blockbench, featuring procedural tail-waving in water, tail-walking during rain, and cute social idle animations.

• Optimized Natural Spawning: Balanced cave and surface spawning rules ensure goldfish populate underground water pools and riverbanks naturally without lagging or overcrowding.в
