Life Fruit



Life Fruit is a Hardmode plant that grows in the Underground Jungle during Hardmode. Once harvested and used, a Life Fruit permanently increases the player's maximum health by 5, turning one of the player's life hearts golden (signifying the heart now represents 25 health, instead of the red heart's 20 health). They increase max health beyond the 400 reachable via Life Crystals, but to no more than 500 health, at which point every life heart is golden.

A total of 20 Life Fruits is needed to reach 500 maximum health. They can only be used once a player has reached the 400 health cap from Life Crystals.

Trivia

 * The plants on which the fruit grows have three different possible sprites. They are all functionally identical.
 * A variant of the Life Fruit strongly resembles the Super Happy Tree from Yoshi's Story
