What it does

Sinister Circus adds items in three groups: a hammer, a crossbow and an armor set, along with food themed around carnivals. The equipment is built around combat and mobility, and the food sits alongside it in the same carnival theme. The mod was made for the Modfest event, and its files target 1.21 only.

Each weapon has a distinct effect. The Jester Hammer throws enemies a long distance when it hits, and it can inflict Dizziness, which slows entities and inverts the player's controls. The Trickster Crossbow fires a wide spread of arrows, and some of them carry a negative status effect. Sinister Circus runs on Fabric, and it is open source under the MIT License. It runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it.

Key features

  1. Jester Hammer
