About this mod Author’s original text
Sunset Tropics
A Stage 4 map set on a tropical archipelago, home to a village that's mostly made of giant hollowed-out sea shells. You can dunk yourself underwater and explore a sparse coral reef with sunken ruins between the islands.
Like other Stage 4 maps, there's a guaranteed legendary chest that appears hidden in one of five locations, marked by a blue torch. Scavengers can rarely appear before looping, like in Sundered Grove.
Variants

- Midnight Tropics, a loop-exclusive variant featuring crashed ships from Siren's Call

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
