Rotten Player

by Terrarich-2004

Rotten Player turns the player into a zombie-like creature, with the sun, the night and the mobs around them changing how they behave.

FabricServer-side onlyMIT License26.1 – 26.1.2

What it does

Players take on a rotten form that zombies treat as one of their own, so the mobs stop attacking them. Golems and wolves attack without an obvious reason, and villagers run away when the player comes near. Eating rotten food restores one point of hunger, while hunger itself is not a limit, so the player can keep going without food running out.

The player is burned by the sun during the day and is safe at night, which makes the timing of travel and building the main concern. The mod is built for players who want to try a new way of playing through a zombie's point of view, and it runs on a server alone.

Installation needs Fabric API on Fabric. Files are published for Fabric only, across three release versions, 26.1 – 26.1.2. The code is under the MIT License and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Zombie-like form

    The player is treated as a zombie, so zombies do not attack the player and other mobs react to the change.

  2. Daytime sun damage

    The sun sets the player on fire during the day, while the night stays safe for the player.

  3. Rotten food restores hunger

    Rotten food restores one point of hunger, and hunger itself never runs out.

  4. Golems and wolves turn hostile

    Iron golems and wolves attack without a clear reason, and villagers flee from the player.
