What Is This Mod?
Assorted Crazy Things (or ACT for short) is a mod that aims to implement a wide variety of content, ranging from the mundane to the humorous. Over the years, this mod grew wildly in size from a small mod to a large collection of fun ideas, thanks to the introduction of a very patient and heavily-overworked coder. With the eventual full release of tModLoader for 1.4, we've been working hard to bring this mod to 1.4. Now, let's skip the fluff and go straight into the meat of the mod.
This mod contains a wide range of pets. No, seriously; we've got a lot of em. Each pet was given a unique recipe, location, or acquisition method that fits the pet, and some have been hidden behind interesting recipes. Be sure to ask the Guide for help when you see that something is listed as a material! One of the major attractions of the mod is the Cute Slime pets; a collection of slime NPCs that resemble cute girls. In regards to their art, we went a little overboard in making sure they had unique designs and expressive faces. On the coding side, we made sure that they had customization available in the form of costume parts that can be crafted with silk. Show the Guide some silk and look at the bottom of the list for a knitting set; these are used to make those costume parts. We also added a way to customize some of the other pets, so be sure to check out our wiki for an explanation on that aspect if you're interested!
Pets are not the only thing we offer in Assorted Crazy Things. We have a wide variety of interesting equipment, ranging from summoned mechanical drones to shoes that make you slip and slide! We have a bunch of accessories fit for helping struggling players to defeat a difficult boss to a variety of vanity balloons, an assortment of simple yet entertaining weapons ranging from pocket sand that confuses weak enemies to a backpack full of slimy companions, and even a suit of armor fit for a reckless summoner. We are primarily focused on summoner-themed content, as I personally enjoy making monster sprites, but we've got a bit of content for melee, ranged, and magic as well.
Finally, we come to another aspect that I've just hinted at; monsters! Initially, this mod was small and only had a handful of vanilla sprite edits. Now, we've expanded quite a bit from the basic modded enemies into having a plethora of interesting monsters. Specifically of the slime variety, but there are several enemies that fill a few interesting niches while remaining as inoffensive as possible. You may even mistake some of them for vanilla entities, as I've tried my best to make sure that they fit in with the vanilla game aesthetic. For a bit of fun, we've set up many of these monsters so that you can capture them with a bug net. These specific enemies are simple-minded, and they will become your pet when captured with said net. Not all monsters are so friendly, of course. Especially not one that you may encounter after diving into the dungeon.
The concept of this mod was to have an assortment of crazy things. We've stuck true to that, as the majority of our content was thought up on the spot. We have no real aim, no narrative to tell, and no agenda to follow. If we come up with something and we like it in the overall scheme, it gets made. Usually at the expense of a certain coder's sanity, but still. Dive in to Assorted Crazy Things, and enjoy a large amount of non-intrusive additions to the world of Terraria!
Note: The 1.3 version of Assorted Crazy Things will remain as it once was. It will not be updated any longer, as we have focused heavily on updating for 1.4.
