System stalker
by Artis_Juck
System stalker places several unsettling entities into the world, each with its own behavior and a sense of watching the player from close range.
What it does
The mod adds six different entities that behave in distinct ways. One of them appears to know what it will do next time, which makes encounters less predictable. Each entity is built to feel closer to a living creature, with movements and reactions that express emotion, and most of its scares come from sudden, unexpected moments rather than constant noise.
Players who want a constant feeling that something is present in the world will find the mod's main purpose in that effect. A new entity is meant to make the player uncomfortable. Geckolib is required, so it must be installed alongside System stalker. The mod is published for Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and is licensed under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features

Surprise-driven scares
