About this project
What does The Darkness Will Find You add?

The Darkness Will Find You expands the Deep Dark into a harsher and more dangerous horror experience built around sculk, darkness and survival.
The Curse of Darkness is a progression-based threat that begins when the player draws the attention of the sculk.
Once the curse starts, nights become unsafe, sleeping is no longer reliable, dark dimensions become even more dangerous and the world begins to react: sculk spreads, creatures gather, unsettling events occur and the player is forced to search for protection, knowledge and a way to end the curse. To survive, players will need to explore buried structures, study the sculk, craft new equipment, use strange magical items and trade with a new villager profession. New creatures, underground structures, progression systems and configurable horror events keep the Deep Dark threatening long after the player first enters it.
Features
- A survival-focused curse built around the Deep Dark
- Unique horror events tied to sculk, darkness, sleep and night
- Dangerous sculk creatures with custom behavior
- New surface and underground structures to discover
- New equipment and magical items for survival and progression
- Sculk-based crafting and processing mechanics
- A new villager profession with unique trades
- An in-game guide with unlockable chapters
- Advancement-based progression and recipe unlocks
Compatibility and recommend mods
- JEI and JEP are recommended for the best experience. JEI shows the mod's custom recipes, while JEP helps with villager profession and trade information
- The Darkness Will Find You is compatible with most Deep Dark-related mods, such as Deeper and Darker, Deep Dark: Regrowth and Sculk Horde
- For the intended challenge it's recommended to keep the balance between player damage and the Warden's health close to vanilla Minecraft: the mod is designed around the Warden remaining a serious threat
- The mod is highly configurable, so it can be adjusted for many modpacks through config files, tags, recipes and datapacks
