Don't Let Go
by tibr
Don't Let Go is a slow horror mod in which a creature stalks the player over several phases, first hiding behind other entities before it shows itself.
What it does
The creature starts far away and gets closer over time, so a player meets it gradually rather than facing a single sudden chase. It stalks the player constantly and can possess entities around them, and its behavior moves through phases: first it lurks unseen, then it appears in its true form and eventually stands right behind the player. The design aims at a slow buildup instead of frequent jump scares.
Environment: the server needs the mod, and a client may also install it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, all for 1.21.11, and the data pack variant covers the same server platforms. The code is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
Key features
Phased creature behavior
The creature moves through several stages, starting unseen and growing bolder as the phases advance.
Hiding among creatures
Before showing its true form, the creature stays behind other mobs, so the player must watch surrounding entities.
Entity possession
The creature can possess entities near the player, adding a source of threat beyond its own body.
Gradual approach
Instead of appearing once and chasing, it closes distance slowly, which keeps tension over a longer session.
