Chroma Tools & Utilities

This is the last minor update before the upcoming major content release — and it brings some fun and powerful new items to the game!

As previously announced in the last changelog, these items can now be crafted using the Shiny Star, making them incredibly strong. However, their power is well balanced by the rarity of the Shiny Star itself.

Enjoy the new additions — and stay tuned for the big update just around the corner!

New item: Woodland carver

The Woodland Carver is the first of two new items introduced in this update — and it’s all about fun! Its special ability lets you** turn almost any block** (except unbreakable or very tough ones) into wood. Anywhere, anytime, for any reason.

It’s a fun and chaotic tool that you’ll definitely want to try out at least once! The Woodland Carver also features the first animated item texture in the entire mod!

New item: Explosion Core

The Explosion Core is the second new item in this update — and it’s far more powerful, designed to reflect the true strength of the Shiny Star.

But don’t expect just another boring TNT block from a classic explosives mod. This item introduces a unique and exciting new mechanic: When used, it summons TNT from the sky, raining down over an 80-block radius — all with musical effects for extra flair!

Despite the chaos, the explosions only break surface-level terrain (like grass, dirt, or sand), meaning it can’t be abused for easy resource farming. The item is also well-balanced, so you won’t be able to spam it constantly.

Still, it's a spectacular experience you won’t want to miss!

Chromatic Mace – Finally here!

The Chromatic Mace is now fully complete and craftable in Survival mode! It was nearly ready in the last version, but now it’s fully usable. You can find the crafting recipe in the appropriate tab — it follows the same pattern as previous upgrades. Enjoy the final addition to the Chromatic item line!
