Creeper Insta BOOM

Version 1.0.0 – Original

This initial version introduces a highly aggressive creeper behavior:

Instant explosion when approaching the player

Increased movement speed compared to vanilla

Significantly higher lethality in close encounters

The goal of this version is to drastically increase difficulty, especially in Survival and Hardcore worlds.

Version 1.0.1 – Normal (Balanced)

The Normal version keeps the core concept but adjusts the mechanics for a more balanced experience:

Creepers move 50% faster

Instant explosion when close to the player

5% chance to naturally spawn as charged creepers

Charged creepers deal 2x damage

Charged creepers have 2x explosion radius

This version is designed for standard survival worlds and multiplayer servers, offering increased challenge without becoming overwhelming.
