What it does

The mod adds a tamed companion that follows and fights beside the player through adventures. It is inspired by a kid's dog doll the author's mom gifted, and the author credits the artist ModderG for helping bring it to life. Animights runs on Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 and needs to be installed on both client and server, and the code is not public, so it is released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Loyal squire companion

    A tamed squire follows the player and joins in combat during adventure play.

  2. Doll-inspired design

    The companion's look is based on a plush dog doll the author received as a gift as a child.

  3. Planned variants

    The author notes plans to add other dog and cat variants and vanilla-style squires such as axolotls and parrots.
