⚠ Spoilers

The following sections explain how the major gameplay systems work.

---

The Main Entity

The primary creature patrols the world looking for players.

When it spots someone, it will stop and stare. Looking away before the countdown finishes allows it to resume patrolling. If the countdown completes—or if the creature is attacked—it begins chasing its target.

This is configureable based on Aggression.

Level 1 Agression: You must stare at each other for about 7 seconds before he chases. if you look away before countdown ends he does not chase.

Level 2 Aggression: You only need to look at him once and the countdown begins, then he chases regardless if you look back at him or not. 

Level 3 Aggression: He only needs to see you to begin cooldown then chase. 

This aggression level is also adjusted in game during gameplay naturally, as once the final boss spawns it sets aggression to level 3.

Affliction

Being caught applies an Affliction instead of immediately ending the encounter.

The Affliction has five levels. Each time you're caught, it becomes stronger until it is cured.

Higher Affliction levels increase the frequency of paranormal events.

 

Removing the Affliction

The Affliction is not permanent and can be cured at any stage.

You can remove it by using any of the following:

• Eating a Spider Eye
• Drinking any potion brewed with a Spider Eye
• Drinking any potion brewed with a Fermented Spider Eye

A small pop up appears giving you a hint something will happen if you consume it for related items. Once the necessary item is consumed, it immediately clears 1 Affliction level. You need to keep consuming to remove each affliction level you are affected by. Once you do, it stops any related visual or gameplay effects, but will still naturally spawn creepy eyes by default as long as mod is active. (Currently death also removes affliciton but I will have a config setting to change if you want this or not, as hitting affliciton 5 can be a bit hard if you keep dying.)

---

Eyes in the World

As Affliction increases, mysterious eyes begin appearing throughout the world.

These eyes become more common with each Affliction level and act as a visual reminder that something is watching.

---

---

Eyes on the Screen

While afflicted, eyes will occasionally appear directly on the player's screen.

These become more frequent at higher Affliction levels and are accompanied by sound effects and other visual feedback.

---

---

Final Boss

If a player dies while at Affliction Level V, the Affliction creates the final boss directly at their death location.

IMPORTANT NOTE!!! It will DESTORY all blocks in a cylander shape around your death location and rise until it reaches a surface area then stop. It deletes stones and other less valuble blocks, but will KEEP ores, like diamond to coal. If this lags for you let me know and I acn try adjusting it. It was lagging far too much with stone as much as I wanted to not actually delete the blocks. So in a way it works as a chunk miner if you are clever lol. Also it drops all the xp at the bottom too. Im keeping it in for now since its kinda cool in this way.

Only one final boss can exist in the world at a time.

This encounter is intended to be the end-game challenge of the add-on.

The final boss will spawn on your dead body and slowly move up, destroyed all blocks above it until it reachs a safe area it can exist.

Its has 100,000 HP and will drop 9 blocks of netherite as a reward for killing it plus some experience.

Creature Design

The creature was created using an AI-assisted workflow.

Instead of generating a creature from a text prompt, custom textures, eyes, and visual elements were created first and then used as the foundation for generating many different creature concepts. Those concepts were refined over multiple iterations until arriving at the final design used in the add-on.
