Hello! I was one of the judges for this jam, and I thought I would give you some feedback.

First off, I definitely agree with Kefaku, there should definitely be a list of crafting recipes in the description, so we don't have to watch the showcase video every time we need a reminder of something.

Your datapack was very polished, each custom item delivering exactly upon what was promised. I liked how you used vanilla blocks, like grass and cornflowers, to provide the ingredients for those items.

However, I think it's a little bit unbalanced. The thorned sword is a little to powerful an upgrade over a diamond one, for only needing a couple of materials obtained from grass to craft it.

But balancing it out is a pretty easy change, so it's not far off being a great pack!

Hello, I'm on my mission of giving everyone who participated in the Jam some detailed feedback. (Just for fun, not related to the actual judging)

What I really like about your pack is, that you've managed to create that many cool items in the very limited time.
To make it easier to use / more userfriendly, I would have liked:
  • A list of crafting recipes in the description, so I don't need to find a specific time point in the showcase video, whenever I forget a certain recipe. It would have been an easier/cleaner way to find the recipe again. (In general, your description is not very informative, just a list of things without information. You should explain what the things do and how to craft/use them in more detail, or do that ingame alternatively.)
  • Some sort of function to give all items, to make testing and playing around with them in creative easier. (probably that's just me, idk)
A minor problem I noticed: When placing the overgrown crafting table you can see and hear the allay from the spawn egg dying. I don't think that's intended, it could be fixed by modifying the EntityTag of the spawnegg to directly spawn a marker/armorstand instead of an allay:

give @p allay_spawn_egg{EntityTag:{id:"minecraft:armor_stand"}}
Overall, I'm impressed by how much you managed to do in the short time, but you should do some polishing and make a more detailed and helpful description after the jam is finished.

I might update this more and update the link before the jam actually gets here. I just wanted to post this early because i was having alot of trouble with my editing software and didn't want to miss the deadline just because I couldn't post it in time
