The Final Goatman
The Final Goatman adds a hostile cryptid that roams forests and dark areas, stalking players at a distance before it attacks.
What it does
The Goatman is a new hostile mob, and it moves and behaves differently from most hostile mobs. It wanders through forests and other dark places and follows players from a distance instead of rushing straight in, so encounters feel less like a regular fight and more like being hunted. Players may hear it before they see it, and sometimes it sees them first.
Spawning happens naturally in the world, and the mob works in multiplayer on Forge for 1.20.1. The mod is built for Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and both the server and every player need it. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.

Unpredictable encounters

Natural spawning
