Best Core Keeper mods to use in your next playthrough

Starting your first playthrough in Core Keeper and looking for some sweet quality of life or content expansion mods? Great, that's exactly the post for you then 🐢

Enemy Health Bars

By default, Core Keeper has no health bars for normal enemies. This is intended game design, but not knowing how much HP an enemy has can be rather annoying. Luckily, there's an easy to install mod that deals with that 👍

AutoDoors

AutoDoors is a simple quality of life mod that adds automatic door opening. Instead of having to click a door to open it, they open automatically. Simple, right?

Keep Inventory on Death

Now we're getting in a little bit of a gray area. I personally hate losing my items in games and having to go pack to pick them up. That's why Terraria's one of my favorite games.

Another simple quality of life mod that allows you to keep your inventory open while moving. Pretty self explanatory 🚶
