The Anomaly
by RedSkeleton
Players who explore a Minecraft world may meet The Anomaly, a Steve-like creature that has slipped into the game files and has to be avoided.
What it does
The Anomaly adds a hostile entity to the world that resembles the player character and moves through the terrain. Its design takes inspiration from the creepypasta series Debase, and the mod is themed as horror. Players are expected to hide from it and run rather than fight it.
The mod requires Geckolib, which must be installed alongside it for the anomaly to function. Both sides need it, since the server and every player must run the mod. Forge 1.20.1 is the only loader and game version covered, with the latest file, 2.1.0, dated 2025-04-15. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
