Being Alone (BE)
by TroniGaming
Being Alone is a NeoForge mod for 1.21.8 that changes how entities spawn so that players are the only thing left out of the spawn rules.
What it does
Being Alone lets mobs and other entities spawn in a new world while the player stays alone in it, which the author describes as a lonely start that turns into a challenge. Creepers cannot blow up near the player in this setup. The author also notes that the music of classic Minecraft is the only sound left to enjoy. Only the NeoForge build for 1.21.8 is published, and it is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Client and server both need it.
Key features
Entities without players
Entities spawn in the world while players themselves are left out of the spawn rules.
No creeper explosions
Creepers do not explode near the player, which changes how a fresh world feels early on.
Lonely start
A new world can open calm before the isolation grows into the mod's main challenge.

What the author says
You are starting new world, everything seems fine but.. you're sad cuz you are alone. It's really cool, you can't really blow up because some green guy won't explode behind you! But... you can't have pets, and only thing you can enjoy is classical minecraft music... So basically this mod makes it, so no entities can…
