Cordyceps

You are not the player anymore. You are the fungus controlling the dead.

Become a parasitic fungus that survives by taking over the bodies of fallen mobs. Every corpse is a new host, and every host comes with its own abilities.

Features

• Possess dead mobs — take control of corpses within 12 blocks.
• Inherit mob abilities — climb walls as a spider, fly and shoot fireballs as a ghast, explode as a creeper, teleport as an enderman, and more.
• Rotting bodies — every host has its own health that gradually decays.
• Host health bar — track your current body's remaining lifespan with a red bar above the hotbar.
• Death and rebirth — when your host is destroyed, you are expelled, leaving mycelium and a mushroom behind.

Controls

• V — Possess a corpse / leave your current host.
• B — Use your current host's special ability.

Requirements

• Minecraft Java Edition 1.20.1
• Fabric Loader
• Fabric API

Become the infection. Find a host. Survive.
