The God
by dregir5
A creature in the sky watches the player at all times, and a karma score decides whether it stays harmless or turns hostile in The God.
What it does
The God is a Forge horror mod that adds a large invulnerable creature which observes everything the player does. Karma rises when the player defeats hostile mobs, at one point per kill, and drops when a non-hostile creature is killed, by between 1 and 15 points depending on the creature. While karma stays high, the creature leaves the player alone and may reward good conduct. When karma falls too low, the player loses the right to life and cannot escape.
The mod contains 24 events and is published for Forge only, across 1.19.2 – 1.20.1 with 3 release versions, the latest being 1.2.1 for 1.20.1, dated 2025-03-26 and in the beta channel. It is server required and client optional: the server needs it, while players may add it. The mod also requires GeckoLib in its later builds. The license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source. The author describes it as an early version and lists a command, /karmabartrue or /karmabarfalse, that toggles the karma indicator.

Invulnerable watcher
The creature in the sky cannot be harmed, and it appears as a constant presence over the player.

What the author says
(The mod is in an early version, also added the ability to turn on and off the karma indicator with the command /karmabartrue or /karmabarfalse) Imagine a new horror mod for Minecraft that adds a powerful creature watching you from the sky. It sees everything you do, every choice you make. But there’s no need to be…
