JoJo’s Steel Ball Spin

Start by crafting a simple Steel Ball. Hit and kill mobs to master the secrets of the Spin. Once you’ve gained enough experience with a Steel Ball, you can upgrade it to the next level and keep mastering your Spin ability. There are eight levels, and each one holds a new power: some come back to your hand, some go straight through mobs, some bounce around looking for a target.

A hit passes the rotation on to whatever it strikes. A weak Spin stops a mob where it stands.

Along the way, your ball also learns to steal potion effects from one mob and hand them to another.

If you reach the max Steel Ball level, just keep the Golden Rectangle in mind. Got it?

– First Steel Ball:

An emerald block in the middle of the crafting table, an iron ingot below it and seven bottles o’ enchanting around them.

– Throw with right-click. Once your balls gain the ability to come back, sneak + right-click recalls them.

 

– Upgrade: put a ball with a full XP bar in the middle of the crafting table and surround it with eight bottles o’ enchanting.

Don’t like a sound? Each player can mute it or swap it for a vanilla one with /jojospin disable_sound, /jojospin vanilla_sound and /jojospin mod_sound

• Install it on both the server and the client.
• Works with Sodium and Iris. With LambDynamicLights, impacts and spinning balls emit light.

• Ball Breaker skin: FunnyInternetMan (@funny_m4).
• Sound effects: compiled from Jojo’s Bizarre Sound Design (@JJBASoundDesign). I only cut and polished some of their sounds.
• Steel Ball texture references: JoJo’s Wiki, the JoJo’s Bizarre Encyclopedia.

If you have better sounds than the ones in this mod, or a better Ball Breaker model (the current one is a downscaled Steve with two squares beside the head), leave a comment and I’ll credit you.
