About this Mod

Available in CurseForge Available in CurseForge

Language Information

The events in the mod and the people who developed the mod are Turkish, so some of the events in the mod are in Turkish. I can't add English support for some key points because they really need to stay in Turkish

⚠️- Except for a few events, all events take place every 3 days. Therefore, you can progress by skipping days with the ‘/time add 3d’ command. However, for example, if you are on day 2, advance with ‘/time add 1d’.

⚠️ - IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR DAY ADVANCING: With version 4.0, there are now events almost every day, and even within days. Therefore, the stability of the mod may be compromised if you advance the day.

SURVIVE 30 DAYS

THE DB

Imagine you are playing SMP with your friends and suddenly your friends experience strange events. That would be creepy, wouldn't it? That's exactly what this mod is about, something that happened to me and my friends.

🤨 WHAT DOES THIS MOD DO?

This mod completely changes the players' normal minecraft experience, adding a different ending, unlike many other horror mods. ALMOST all events that happen in the mod happen on the server where me and my friends play.

There are many scary events that happen day after day in the mod, as well as strange beings that watch over you. The mod also has chat messages describing the events, so play with chat on if possible.

⚠️ WARNING:

THIS MOD CAN:

  • BREAK YOUR WORLD,
  • CRASH YOUR GAME,
  • CREATE FILES IN YOUR COMPUTER.

PLAY WITH THESE IN MIND, THESE FEATURES ARE ADDED TO FIT THE LORE AND CREATE AN ATMOSPHERE OF HORROR.

Mod is in beta. I can say that it is about 80% complete, I have not added many things I planned. You may encounter many bugs and errors.

The mod is an EXTREMELY SLOW mod. You will need a minimum of ~5 hours and a maximum of ~10 hours to finish the mod.

🟩 RECOMMENDED

  • PLAY THE MOD IN AT LEAST 7 CHUNKS
  • KEEP CHAT OPEN
  • KEEP THE BRIGHTNESS AT 100%
  • IF YOU ARE USING SODIUM-LIKE MODS, ALWAYS KEEP THE ENTITY/MOB RENDER DISTANCE AT 500%

  • 💬 Chat-based story telling.
  • 🎯 Unique endings.

Origin Story of The DB

ORIGIN STORY OF THE DB

In 2021, our group of over 10 friends played SMP together. After some time, two of us split from the group to grind independently. Soon after, a friend from the other team reported their torches mysteriously disappearing. Initially, no one believed it, but others started experiencing the same issue. During this, a friend claimed to see a blue entity at the end of a tunnel. A few others reported similar sightings, and one mentioned a black entity, though no one else saw it. Eventually, the world inexplicably vanished, and despite searching for the DB with the same seed, we found nothing except I was trolling. I created this mod to immortalize that experience. Personally, I believe (though my friends disagree) the world’s disappearance stemmed from our group’s split a chaos-hating entity destroying it.
