Eternal Steel Mode
🛡️ Features
This is an experimental mod designed specifically for the Iron Soul mode of Hollow Knight: Silk Song. When you die in Steel Souls mode, the game no longer deletes your save file, but instead resurrects you from the bench you last rested on, just like Classic mode!

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
