Undertale Death Screen
by rhm176.
When the last heart of a player shatters, Undertale Death Screen replaces the usual death screen with a scene modeled on a well-known role-playing game.
What it does
The mod changes only what appears after a player dies. A shattered last heart triggers a death sequence in place of the standard death screen, and the mod needs no changes on the server, so it is a client-side only addition. Fabric API must be installed alongside it on every loader it is published for.
Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 16 release versions, 1.20 – 1.21.8, and the latest file, 1.3.3+1.21.6, targets 1.21.8 and dates from 2025-10-15. The source code and an issue tracker are public, and the code is released under the MIT License, so the project is open source.
The project was first published on 2024-12-17 and was last updated on 2025-10-15. Its author, rhm176, lists sharing videos, playing it in a let's play, and adding it to modpacks as ways to help the mod reach other players.
Key features
Themed death sequence
A last heart shattering plays a death scene modeled on a role-playing game in place of the standard death screen.
Triggered by the last heart
The sequence starts only when the player's last heart shatters, so ordinary deaths from higher health keep the vanilla screen.
Client-side behavior
The effect runs in the player's game, so a server running vanilla gameplay does not need the mod installed.
Modpack inclusion
The mod can be added to modpacks, which the author cites as a way for other players to find it.

Use cases
Let's play videos
Creators filming a survival or hardcore run can use the death scene as a recognizable moment on camera.
Modpacks with a theme
Pack makers building an inspired or horror-themed pack can add the mod for its death sequence.
Who it’s for: Players who want a themed death sequence, and creators or modpack makers who run a survival or hardcore setup where the last heart matters. Fabric API is needed for every loader.
How it compares
Death Coords is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, works on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and is built for 1.21.5 with a server required and a client optional. Last Heart (HP Warning) is a Fabric-only client-side mod with All rights reserved licensing, published for 1.20.1 – 1.21.11. Last Death Location is client-side only under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and covers 1.21.5 – 26.2, so it differs in version range and license rather than in function.
