Tabletop is a heavily multiplayer-focused mod. It adds things that increase interactivity, allowing you to create games inside Minecraft that couldn't be properly or easily replicated before, like board games, which inspired the title of the project.
In the end, what you do with Tabletop depends only on your creativity. For example, Blobs can represent players, creatures, cards, dice, etc. It can be a ball, flung around with Knockback swords, a target for marksmen contests and a piece in redstone contraptions.
Currently, Tabletop adds:
- Blobs: A small, dummy entity that can be placed and picked-up by right clicking. It can be named, colored and dispensed. More than one can occupy the same block.
- Dolls: Dolls are like blobs, but they offer more variety.
- Copper Tokens: Placeable tokens, which display how many are in a pile.
- Honeyball: Right clicking on a block picks it up and stores it. Right clicking again places it back. Shift + right clicking swaps blocks.
- Soul Compass: On activation, it makes nearby players glow and remembers the current position, pointing to it until activated again.
- Overstuffed Firework Rockets: Removes the limit of 3 gunpowder while crafting fireworks. Surpassing that limit gives the Overstuffed buff, which makes the rocket destroy blocks when it explodes.
- Hoe of Echo: A sculk-tool that consumes experience to instamine blocks, losing the drops.
- Redstone Meter: A simple digital display of redstone power.
- Phantom Prism: Gives all 16 different colors according to redstone power.
