Your steps destroy the world! Every block you walk on is erased from the sky down to bedrock. Can you survive the abyss following you?
About this Mod
The Abyss Follows You (Fabric)
The Abyss Follows You is a chaotic, highly engaging survival challenge mod where your own footsteps are your greatest threat.
Every block you step on is marked, and after a short delay, it vanishes forever—taking the entire vertical column from the sky down to bedrock with it.
New in Version 2.0:
- Smart Foliage Bypass: Outline frames spawn accurately under your feet, completely ignoring tree leaves above your head.
- Water & Lava Support: Challenge yourself in the oceans! Particle outlines now render correctly directly on the surface of fluids.
- Ceiling Traps: If you are falling through empty space but there is a bridge or ceiling above you, the mod will track and collapse the blocks above, rendering the outline on their bottom face.
- Spawn Protection: Receive 5 seconds of grace protection upon respawning to prevent immediate falls.
- Performance Optimized: Clean and sharp particles that render every 3 server ticks to prevent overlapping and game lag.
Game Modes
You can fully control and customize the mod directly in-game using the /abyss commands:
- Normal Mode: Blocks disappear after a customizable delay (giving you a brief window to run).
- Paranoia Mode: Blocks disappear instantly under your feet. Every step requires absolute focus and quick jumps!
Commands (OP Only)
