Detailed Content

The mod introduces six distinct subterranean worlds:
1. Magnetic Caves: A realm of magnetism with unique physics-based blocks and puzzles.
2. Primordial Caves: A prehistoric world filled with dinosaurs and giant flora.
3. Toxic Caves: A hazardous wasteland filled with radiation, acid, and mutated creatures.
4. Abyssal Chasm: A deep oceanic trench biome with terrifying aquatic life.
5. Forlorn Hollows: A dark, atmospheric forest hidden underground with spectral entities.
6. Candy Cavity: A vibrant, edible world made entirely of sweets and treats.
