Slimewalk: Every Mob Hops
by jianuoczmc
Slimewalk: Every Mob Hops makes most mobs, animals and villagers bounce like slimes, and players can opt into the same movement.
What it does
Slimewalk: Every Mob Hops changes how almost every living creature moves across a world. Mobs, animals and villagers take short, bouncy hops while they walk, which gives the whole world a hiccup-like rhythm. The effect is applied on the server, so only the server needs the mod installed.
Hops are controlled by a small set of settings. The hop interval and hop height can be adjusted, along with a movement boost and a list of exclusions for mobs that should stay put. Hops can be limited to mobs that are moving, navigating or targeting, and a cooldown sets the time between hop attempts. Players are excluded by default and can be included through an option. Mobs run on Forge 1.20.1 only, and the mod depends on lightweight server-driven behavior mixins and some extra mod dependencies, which the page lists as requirements.
The mod is released under the MIT License but is not open source. Its files are published for Forge, with one release, 1.0.0, for 1.20.1, dated 2026-02-09. The mod can be switched off in the configuration, so a server owner can test the effect and turn it back off without removing the mod.
Key features
Hopping mobs
Most mobs, animals and villagers hop like slimes while they move around the world.
Adjustable hop timing
The hop interval, hop height and movement boost can each be tuned in the configuration file.
Hop only while moving
An onlyWhenMoving option restricts hops to mobs that are moving, navigating or targeting.
Exclusion list
Specific mobs can be left out of the effect, so ones that should stay still keep their normal movement.
Player hopping
Players are excluded by default, and an includePlayers option lets them hop as well.

How it compares
Craft Slime is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 that adds slime-based content and requires both client and server, under All rights reserved and not open source. Bouncy Slimes is open source under the MIT License, works on Fabric, Forge and Quilt for 1.20.4, and runs as a server required mod with an optional client. Slimewalk is server-side only and changes mob movement rather than adding slime items, so players join without installing it.
