Quiet Apocalypse

by timeframes21

Quiet Apocalypse is a Fabric mob mod for 1.21.1 built around a cosmic horror creature called the Sweeper, a giant that roams the world and hunts the player.

FabricClient and serverAll rights reserved1.21.1

What it does

Players scavenge and explore the world while giant Sweepers move across the land. A Sweeper keeps following and closing in when the player stops, so the player has to keep moving, search the sky and avoid being caught. Hiding beneath a solid block makes the Sweeper lose sight of the player, but staying hidden for too long brings the next mob. The mod is built on the Geckolib animation library and uses Cloth Config API and Fabric API.

The horror relies on sudden jumpscares and sustained tension rather than constant combat. Sweepers move more slowly than the player when sprinting or jumping, which gives the chase a steady pace. The mod includes custom models and textures, and it works with Lost Cities, so the chase can take place in generated cities. Optional support for Complementary Shaders - Unbound, Iris Shaders and Sodium lets players pair the mod with shader packs and rendering changes. The author suggests the Complementary Unbound preset with 50% saturation, 130% contrast and 85% brightness.

The mod runs on the client and on the server, so both the server and every player need it. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. The Fabric file 1.0.0 for 1.21.1 was published on 2026-08-13.

Key features

  1. Roaming Sweeper giants

    Giant Sweepers roam the world and follow the player, closing in whenever the player stops moving.

  2. Hiding beneath blocks

    Standing under a solid block breaks the Sweeper's line of sight, but a long stay lets the next mob arrive.

  3. Slow pursuers

    Sweepers move slower than a sprinting or jumping player, which keeps the chase tense without making it unwinnable.

  4. Custom models and textures

    The mod adds its own creature models and textures, with animations provided through Geckolib.

Y Apocalypse Zombies is client and server, uses a custom license and is also published for Fabric 1.21.11, so it is not open source and differs from Quiet Apocalypse mainly in its zombie focus.

Inspired from the youtube series by My own interpretation, this is not fully accurate to the series SUMMARY Scavenge the world as you explore, moving around and avoiding the giants that roam the earth.
