# FIREFLIES!
\n### What does this mod add?
\nThis mod adds fireflies to the game as they were
\nintended by mojang! What’s that mean?<\/p>\n

## FEATURES:
\n– Frogs eat fireflies
\n– Fireflies spawn at night in swamps and other biomes
\n– Fireflies emit light (only if lambdynamiclights is installed)
\n– Fireflies can be caught in bottles!<\/p>\n

### Additional features
\nCaught fireflies can be smelted to retrieve their photocyte,
\nwhich can be crafted with a glow ink sac to make glow powder.
\nGlow powder can be brewed into a glow potion!<\/p>\n

### Compatibility
\nThis mod should be compatible with just about anything
\nI’ve playtested with Sodium and lambdynamiclights only, however,
\nmost other mods shouldn’t pose any problems.<\/p>\n
