About this Mod
Features
Items / Blocks
- Funeral Ink
- A multi-facet block that can cover any solid side of blocks.
- Slows down entities and prevents sprinting.
- Can be placed on top of water to allow inklings to walk on it.
- Sun Effigy
- Obtained by crafting a + shape of gold blocks with a sunflower in the middle.
- Eclispes the sun when dropped in Funeral Ink (read more below).
- Totem of Uncleansing
- A new totem variant dropped by Evokers, if killed while holding a Sun Effigy.
- Allows the user to become Inklings upon death (5 minutes, read more below).
Inkmorphosis / Inkling
- A new effect turning the player into a Splatoon inspired ink creature, much more at ease on Funeral Ink than out of it.
- Removes the hunger mechanic and offers instead a very slow passive regeneration.
- Removes sprinting but instead offers a new ability: Diving.
- Toggled by using the sprint key.
- Makes the user invulnerable to most damage (excluding out of world and explosive damage), and prevents targetting from (basic AI, brain users unaffected) hostile mobs.
- Regenerates health at a fast rate (same as full saturation).
- Allows Inklings to spread Funeral Ink, including on water, allowing them to walk / dive atop it.
- Prevents all fall damage: any fall damage taken will put the user in dive mode.
Eclipse & Black Rain
- Triggered by dunking a Sun Effigy in Funeral Ink, lasts 2 hours.
- Refreshes Inkmorphosis effect timers for Inklings as long as it lasts.
- Gradually covers areas around inklings in Funeral Ink.
Supporter Bonuses
For Ko-Fi and YouTube members, you get additional perks:
- Inkling Cosmetics:
- You can open the customization menu by right-clicking a Totem of Uncleansing while as an Inkling.
- Super Silly Supporter Commands:
- Debug commands to mess around with that affect the entire save; while they reset on client or server restart, be careful with them!
- Accessed with /defile (minus /defile blackRain [duration], that one everyone has access to).
