A Little Darkness

The mod is meant to widen the difficulty range of play by adding content that centers on darkness. Development has added many features tied to that theme, and the feature list is updated as work continues. The Cursed Lands biome gets a large share of the attention, and its look is built around gloomy black and purple tones.

Fear is the core mechanic, and nearly every event in the mod depends on the player's lighting and the biome they stand in. Low fear reduces the player's buffs, and reaching maximum fear causes death. Combat with zombies can bring food poisoning and infection, and thirst also affects the player. Some of these effects can be reversed in several ways, including drinking from a water source, though the outcome depends on the biome and whether water is nearby. A world-level mechanic grows stronger over time and raises the strength of mobs and other parts of the game.

The mod is client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is published for NeoForge only, with files for 1.21.8 and 26.1.2, and the latest file is 0.7 for 26.1.2. A Little Darkness is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
