About this project

What does Tarnished add?

THIS MOD IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH "Smooth Camera Movement"

Mod Requires Geckolib and playerAnimator

Its been decades since you've last seen him, you may not remember him but he remembers you.

you've done what you can to escape his following and his influence, but he will always be there. he has been here since the beginning, watching every action you've made.

The "Tarnished" Mod is a Minecraft Mod developed by ClouddyVR alongside other developers such as Voxla, Brguii and Lunar.

When adding this mod to your modpack, you'll have an Entity named "Tarnished" within your world, he will be watching you and stalking you even if you think he is not, he'll be watching even on the first day.

Note:

You dont spam space in the Struggle minigame, its like Dead By Daylight

if you havent played DBD you can find an example on how this minigame works here

BEHAVIOR SPOILERS!

"Tarnished" is an entity that will actively watch you, waiting until its right to strike. he mainly spawns stalking the player and following them, waiting for the right moment to snap your neck. he vanishes from sight if you catch him following you, but he will continue again when he thinks your not paying any attention. He also has the ability to spawn underground and on the ceilings, aswell as jumpscaring you by grabbing onto your screen. He can also drag you away and force you into a QTE Minigame inspired by Dead By Daylight, aswell as peak through your doors, stand at the end of your bed and run across your screen
