Stumble
by lbfalvy
Stumble is a Fabric mod for the server that makes players fall harder when they run down stairs, and it is not meant to be taken seriously.
What it does
Running on stairs can cause a stumble, and a fall down a staircase deals heavy damage, which can be fatal. The author built it as a small joke project and describes it as a silly mod, not a balance change. The mod is open source under the MIT License and runs only on the server, so players join without installing anything. It targets Minecraft 1.19 – 1.19.4 and the latest Fabric file is 1.2 for 1.19.4, published 2023-11-19.

What the author says
A silly mod that causes the player to fall when running on stairs. Falling down stairs is somewhat faster than freefall and deals an excessive amount of damage. Not a day goes by I don't ask the same question. In this case, I needed a project to learn Minecraft modding that didn't engage my perfectionism.
