The Anomalies

The world around you is degrading. Visual glitches, fake crashes, phantom players, and an entity born from a rendering error.

Detected Anomalies:

  • Visual Glitches: Dead pixels on your screen, inverted controls, and corrupted UI elements.
  • Paranoia: You will see chat messages from players who aren't on the server. You will hear footsteps behind you. Torches will extinguish for no reason.
  • The Watcher: An entity resulting from a texture mapping error. It watches from a distance. If you get too close, your connection will be terminated.

The Crash Report

You may find an item called the Crash Report. Using it triggers a fatal system error simulation.

  • Note: The mod does NOT actually crash your game client or damage your PC.
  • It simulates a crash by kicking you from the world with a realistic error message 

Configuration

All features are fully configurable via the config file. You can customize the experience to be a subtle psychological horror or a nightmare.

  • Enable/Disable Jumpscares
  • Configure fake player names
  • Adjust glitch frequency

Requirements

  • Minecraft 1.20.1 (Forge)
  • No external dependencies required

License

MIT – free to fork, create addons, and include in modpacks.

Created for the brave. Do not trust your eyes.
