ForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.20.1

What it does

The creature appears at night and sneaks up on players who are not watching for it. During the day it stays out of sight but leaves signs of its presence, so players have to stay alert after dark. The mod requires Geckolib and runs on client and server, so both sides need it.

Key features

  1. Night ambush mob

    A plankton creature spawns at night and approaches quietly from behind while players are looking elsewhere.

  2. Jumpscare sounds

    Loud sound effects play when the creature appears, built around a meme-style scream.

  3. Daytime signs

    During the day the creature stays hidden but leaves traces that hint it is still nearby.

What the author says

Mod to RU plankton meme AAAHHH. Funny jumpscare, sounds, model and texture. Intellect for The Boiled One. Mod for funny moments and gameplay. He appears at night, and will sneak up on you, the main thing is not to look at him, during the day he will just show signs of his presence. Crazy mod.
