About this Mod
UNKNOWN_FILE.JAR
something wanders where it shouldn't in a world where you don't belong

unknown_file.jar is a RANDOM progression horror mod that slowly corrupts your world (it isn't really slow lmao), while you uncover the secrets of its dark past. This mod sends you back to the alpha versions of minecraft, but things feel really odd. People who don't belong join, world corrupts itself slowly while it tries to kick you out. (I put it as random progression because in current versions of the mod you can get pretty much any heavy event after Shadow joins)
Some things on the mod still don't work as intended and/or will be given use in the future. Its recomended that you don't play with any other mod that changes terrain generation or any other horror mod for the best experience. Its on you though!
