Vape World

Reflections of home

Home, except every living thing has a vape and is not shy about it.

What happens when you arrive

It's home. The same terrain, the same streets, the same rooms, and the Box stands right where yours does at home. For a minute you'd think the Serum had failed. Then something sweet hangs in the air, and somewhere nearby a cow exhales. In this world, every living thing has a vape and is not shy about it.

The rule: everyone vapes

Vape World is a copy of your own world, kept up to date with it, exactly as it is (nothing aged, nothing broken). The only difference is the creatures.

  • Every creature takes a hit every 30 to 60 seconds. Cows, zombies, villagers between trades, slimes, all of them. It takes out its own vape (each kind has its own flavour and its own little device), inhales for about 4 seconds and blows a cloud sized to its body.
  • Vaping is catching. When one creature takes a hit, each creature within 6 blocks has a 3 in 4 chance of joining in. You'll see clouds ripple across a field.
  • Some clouds do something to you. Walk into a cloud and you get its effect, once per cloud. Most clouds are just clouds. The fun ones:
Whose cloud What it does to you
Slime Slimed for 15 seconds: you drip, jump higher, bounce when you land and take no fall damage. The best one.
Magma Cube Slimed, plus Fire Resistance.
Enderman Warps you a short way.
Villager Hero of the Village for a minute: the whole market sells to you at a discount.
Allay Haste.
Ghast Floats you up, then down gently.
Shulker, Ender Dragon Lifts you off the ground.
Breeze Launches you skyward, with slow falling to come down.
Phantom Slow falling.
Iron Golem Resistance.
Bee Heals you, but sticky.
Horse, Donkey, Mule, Camel, Fox, Skeleton Horse, Zombie Horse Speed.
Rabbit, Frog, Goat Jump boost.
Dolphin, Turtle Swim like a dolphin.
Bat Night vision.
Glow Squid You glow and see in the dark.
Creeper Pops and knocks you back.
Blaze Sets you alight.
Witch A random brew.
Cave Spider Poison.
Pufferfish Nausea and poison.
Spider Webs you down.
Stray, Polar Bear Freezes you.
Squid Ink in your eyes.
Warden Darkness.
Zombie, Husk, Zombie Villager, Zoglin Hunger.
Wither, Wither Skeleton Wither.

Every other vanilla creature's cloud is harmless. Creatures from the mod's other worlds smoke one of four house flavours (Midnight Tobacco, Meadow Mix, Sea Salt Spray or Mystery Flavor), and those clouds are harmless too.

Taking a hit yourself

Kill a creature here and there's an 8% chance it drops its vape, for example a Slime Lime Vape or a Void Grape Vape. You can use it anywhere.

  1. Hold use to inhale. A lungs bar fills over 3 seconds.
  2. Keep holding and the bar turns red. Let go while it's red and you blow a potent cloud: you get the cloud's effect yourself, and so does any other player it reaches.
  3. A shorter breath is just smoke, with no effect.
  4. Hold it past 5 seconds and you cough out a sorry little puff and feel sick for a moment.

The vape's tooltip shows its flavour and what its cloud does. In Vape World, your hit sets off the creatures around you, too.

What to bring home

  • Vapes. A Slime Lime Vape is a portable "no fall damage" button, a villager's Emerald Melon Vape is a discount at any village, and an enderman's Void Grape Vape is a short-range escape.
  • Everything else is your own world's: ores, crops and builds as they stand at home.

Serum and getting home

  • The arrival Box's cache holds 2 Serum Ampoules.
  • There is no native Serum ingredient, but the land is your home world's, with everything it already holds.
  • The Box stands where your home Box is, so you step out where you left.

Tips

  • Farm slimes for the Slime Lime Vape. Its cloud makes you immune to falls for 15 seconds.
  • Stand in a villager's cloud before trading. A minute of Hero of the Village goes a long way.
  • Walk around, not through, the clouds of zombies, cave spiders, withers and wardens.
  • Keep an eye on the lungs bar: let go in the red, before the cough.

Birds

Birds you can photograph for your bird log here. Open one to turn it round, watch it move and hear its call.

The traveler's tape

Every arrival Box has a chest by its door holding a cassette: the last traveler reading their journal of this world aloud. This is what they say. It gives a lot away.

Read the journal (spoilers)

It is home. The same streets, the same rooms, the Box right where I left it, and for a minute I thought the Serum had failed. Then a chicken in the alley pulled a tiny disposable from nowhere, took a long drag and blew a cloud that smelled of buttered popcorn. Everything here does it. The cows, the zombies, the villagers between trades, the slimes most of all, every half minute or so like clockwork. Each creature has its own flavor and its own little device, and the clouds are not all harmless: a slime's cloud left me sticky and bouncing off the pavement for a while, an enderman's dropped me ten blocks away, and walking through a villager's made the whole market sell to me at a discount. Kill one and it sometimes drops its vape. I tried one. Do not hold it in too long.
