The mod adds events that happen in your survival world over time. At first they are small and easy to miss, like footsteps or a door left open. Later they get more noticeable, and a figure starts showing up.

Spoiler
The mod changes the render distance setting, can deliberately crash the game in single-player, open your world to LAN, save an image to your screenshots folder, and change blocks around your base. It also spawns far fewer animals and no naturally spawning hostile mobs. All of this can be turned off in the config.
The mod never touches files outside your instance folder.
About an hour to an hour and a half in one world.
Minecraft 1.21.1, NeoForge, Java 21
You can use the mod in any modpack, as long as the pack downloads it from this page. Please don't re-upload it.
