This is a game mod for Rain World: Downpour v1.9 (DLC required).
Applies to all characters.
Installation:
- Download KarmaAppetite2.rar and extract it into the "mods" folder.
- Archive contains 4 folder:
- KA_KarmaAppetite (base mod)
- KA_SolemnQuarry (region mod - can be used separately, however the Iterator won't be present)
- KA_IteratorKit (addition for the region)
- SlugBase (dependency)
- Make sure all four mods are enabled in the Remix menu in game. (Config menu with cheats available)
Unlike in the previous version, there is no ExtraInventory mod.
But if your slugcat really needs a backpack, I can recommend LeeMoriya's Inventory Mod.

SlugBase
A witty slugcat with a progressive Karma:Food:Stats system. Also able to craft tools, and even make shortcuts of its own.
Applies to all slugcats, however only the Pathfinder gets the "true campaign experience".
Controls: Hold Q to craft. Hold E + direction to tunnel. (tapping the direction is enough, no need to hold)
-
Karma/Food/Stats scaling: Higher Karma translates to higher food requirement. However the more food slugcat eats, the stronger it becomes! Affects things like speed, spear power, and lung capacity. Applies to all slugcats.
-
New Campaign: New mini-region and new iterator with a new quest! Includes custom pearls. Best played with The Pathfinder.
-
Crafting: Holding Q while stationary combines held items. If nothing is held, it will find (create) a piece of rock. Items can also be dismantled (eg. breaking spear in half, or food from a lantern). See the crafting recipes below.
-
Tunneling: Holding E will move the slugcat through a temporary shortcut. It provides only a partial invulnerability, so be careful what you tunnel through!
This section contains a frame of reference, a comparison to other Slugcats.

SPOILER
No food, any Karma: Slower than Monk and can't even throw a spear properly: stucking it into walls/creatures requires a jump into melee distance.
Max food, Karma 1-3: +- Survivor
Max food, Karma 5: Glowing Hunter with a multiplied damage on spear.
Max food, Karma 10: Dances with Martyr. (on Karma 10, all bonuses are doubled)
Note: Karma 7 removes all food prices.
Note: Final quest item provides Karma10 bonuses plus something extra.

- Some images lack a flatmode version, others exist in flatmode only.
- Region is rather a mini-region: needs more rooms (draft on paper).
- Special outro for finishing the game without completing the quest has been cut for now.
- Player guide needs upgrade of its capabilities.
- Iterator deserves a prettier halo and a conversation upgrade (eg. proper pearl reading and comments on delivering more quest items after finishing already).
- Region music has been cut for now. (inspiration: Ghost Cop - Just run)
This mod uses SlugBase for slugcat's basic framework.
Special thanks go to IteratorKit for enabling the regions Iterator!
The code of all modules is open-source. Main code is in this repository, however the region and the forked IteratorKit are separated:
