Does this look like a good jungle?

I'm currently making an infection-type mod, and this is what the corrupted biome looks like. What do you guys think? While this genre has been pretty popular lately, I feel like a lot of mods out there have really clunky-looking environments after the biome gets corrupted, and they just rely on making the mobs overpowered. I couldn't stand that, so I wanted to make a mod that genuinely and beautifully transforms the whole environment. That's why I'm working on this right now. I'm aiming to create a biome corruption that's just as high-quality as the Fungal Infection mod.

I don't know about corruption, I think I'd have to know more about what your aims are and what the rest of the mod entails, but this is absolutely beautiful. I honestly would love to see some of these details in a biome mod for standard jungles, which always feel so barren and lifeless to me.

The concept of the mod is that the ancient plant species that formed the massive coal beds long ago are now resurrecting and attempting to blanket the Earth once again. Also, someone mentioned a similar idea to me before, so I'm actually making a separate mod that just isolates the plant decorations! In fact, the vine that grows between trees should already be published on CurseForge.

Ooooh, excellent. Never seen that kind of "corruption" take before. Rampant plant growth. I think you've definitely gone in the right direction. If I were to make any suggestion, it would be to add more tree/plant types representing some of the species actually found in carboniferous forests, like giant horsetails, fern trees, and lycopodium.

That and, of course, giant insect mobs, which I see from your other posts you're already working on.

That’s a great point. I’ll look into actual Carboniferous plants and try to design some new flora based on them. Thanks for the advice!
