What it adds
This mod adds a few things to make Minecraft more chaotic:
- A sleep deprivation system that messes with the day/night cycle.
- Random jumpscare sound effects to drive you insane.
- Eating beetroots may summon or kill Black, a very fast zombie that is tough to deal with and will chase you forever.
- Basically turns you into a gambler who bets their life every time they eat.
