Description

Every ten minutes of unpaused play you catch a new real disease. They stack until the end of the run, and you still have to beat the Ender Dragon.

Features

  • 30 real diseases. Chickenpox, bubonic plague, rabies, cold, covid, malaria, gastroenteritis, ergotism, scurvy, tetanus, fungal infection, lice, tapeworm, haemophilia, jaundice, Alzheimer's, conjunctivitis, Lyme disease, leprosy, elephantiasis, Ebola, smallpox, measles, black lung, achalasia, mad cow, choreomania, botulism, gangrene and hyperhidrosis.
  • Visible on the player. Skin overlays that grow in stages, mushrooms, a tick, huge legs, and animated poses like scratching, sneezing, vomiting, convulsions and dancing.
  • Annoying, never blocking. Crises slow you down and make clicks miss, they never take the controls away.
  • Thirst and fatigue. Two extra bars above the hunger bar. Hold use with an empty hand on water or a water cauldron to drink, and sleep through the night to get every heart back for five minutes.
  • Disease list in the corner. Shows your active diseases and the time before the next one. It can be turned off in the config.
  • Fair timer. Counts only unpaused play, random order without repeats, optional seed or fixed order, saved with the world.
  • Flashback compatible. Replays show the episodes on the right player.
  • Named deaths. Death messages name the disease.

A disease alone never kills, health stops at one heart while you do nothing. Hunger and thirst can still finish you.
