Geodes Galore adds budding blocks for most resources—like diamond, emerald, redstone, and more—bringing amethyst-style growth mechanics to the rest of the game. These budding blocks slowly grow resource shards, which can be crafted into shard blocks and smelted back into their respective gem or ingot.
All budding blocks require Silk Touch to harvest, and Fortune does not increase shard drops (at least for now—this is subject to change after play testing).
This is a standalone mod, built to blend naturally into Minecraft’s vanilla progression. I created it using GPT and have been testing it without any issues so far. I'm playing it alongside cobblemon, so updates will follow versions compatible with the latest Cobblemon releases.
Feel free to leave any comments or bugs, I'll most likely fix them.
