Poof Puuf!
by BIank
Poof Puuf! plays a poof sound and shows a smoke cloud whenever a mob dies and vanishes, so the audio lines up with the visual.
What it does
When a mob dies, the mod plays a poof sound at the moment the mob disappears, and a cloud of smoke appears in its place. The sound and the smoke animation are synchronized, so the audio cue matches the visual effect. Gameplay is left unchanged: drops, health, spawning and combat behave as they do in vanilla.
The mod is a small, lightweight addition for players who want mob deaths to feel more polished and expressive without adding clutter or complexity. It blends with the existing vanilla sound effects instead of replacing them. Because it changes only audio and visual feedback, it can be added to a single-player world or a multiplayer server without affecting balance.
Installation needs only the Fabric loader for Minecraft 1.21.11, with no extra setup. Installation covers the server and each player's game. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source. The latest file is 21.11, published on 2026-01-30 on the beta channel.

How it compares
Minecraft: Story mode Poof sound is a Fabric mod for 1.20.1 with client and server environment, released under the MIT License. No Death Animations + is a Fabric mod for 1.20.4 that runs on the client only, under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. Poof Puuf! covers 1.21.11 and needs the server as well, so it differs from both in version range and environment.
