What it does

Jumpscares fire by chance when a player walks through caves or opens the inventory, and the darkness effect lingers in the inventory afterwards. The scare chance and related settings are adjustable through the advanced configuration, which relies on OwO Lib, and the mod needs Fabric API as well. Only the client needs it, so players can join servers without installing anything. The code is under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 only, and the source and issue tracker are public.

Key features

  1. Cave jumpscares

    Scares can trigger at random while a player moves through caves, adding tension to underground exploration.

  2. Inventory jumpscares

    Opening the inventory can also set off a scare, with darkness that stays on screen afterwards.

  3. Adjustable frequency

    The advanced configuration sets how often jumpscares happen, using the OwO Lib settings screen.
