Overview

This mod was created because I usually play Minecraft with the Hunger Strike mod installed to remove the need to constantly stuff my face as I explore the world, but I have always been disappointed that I still need food to regen health.

Enter the Heart Drop mod. Upon death, all mobs now drop hearts, which when picked up by the player will heal them one heart each. The number of hearts dropped by each mob is determined by its max health, so the harder they are to kill the more hearts they will drop.

Even with no other mods installed, it still would be the perfect companion to any survival world with natural regen disabled, and also works great all by itself just to give you some quick health as you fight your way out of the zombie horde.

PROTIP: If you find you have too many hearts littering your world, try enabling Vampire Mode in the config.
