Welcome to Limulidatic Takeover: Horseshoe Crab Invasion!
This is a really stupid "Infection mod" that adds a hostile Horseshoe Crab invasion. After 5 minutes ingame, horseshoe crabs will spawn 5 blocks above all living entities, and they will start to kill everything. Upon killing a mob, more horseshoe crabs will spawn scaling off of the killed mob's health.
This mod was made in like 5-6 hours because I felt like it, no it is not very serious. Lag is very likely an outcome of using this mod and I don't really care that much. Will I ever update the mod? No clue, maybe if people actually like this shit I might bother to give it an update but as it currently stands this was just a stupid idea that I had and that I made, enjoy at your own risk.
(P.S. Horseshoe crabs ignore I-frames because fuck you)
