make a reversed version called "will starve" that instead increases the cost of recipes

I will say this mod is also really great for singleplayer, as you can spend less time grinding and more time doing actually interesting things.

This comment made my day. Thank you so much! Yes, I tried to keep all the recipes thematically appropriate, the telltale heart for example nullifies the life regen of the amulet if you just try to craft it for infinite HP abuse or something, but also fits the flavour of the item really well. Some changes dont make sense from the pastebin alone, like the Rabbit House change is actually to make it identical to the Pig House recipe just for clarity, not to make it cheaper. Im still testing this day by day and will make further changes if something doesnt fit or is exploitable, and Im taking suggestions if you find anything!

I never realized how unnecessarily expensive some the old recipes were until reading the pastebin. I also really liked the clever use of keeping the theme of the item (like telltale heart for the amulet) and making things consistent, like the recipes for the cold and shadow amulets. Very clever mod I would totally recommend to new players to experiment with items.

This is fantastic, thanks!
