Description
Epic Death Screen
Epic Death Screen replaces Minecraft's default death screen with a cinematic custom sequence.
Instead of the vanilla death menu appearing instantly, the player gets a stylized blackout scene with heartbeat and heavy breathing audio, VHS-inspired visual noise, scanlines, chromatic distortion, and randomized motivational messages. The effect is designed to make dying feel dramatic instead of abrupt.
The mod includes:
- a full custom death sequence instead of the vanilla death screen
- blackout, VHS noise, scanlines, tracking artifacts, and text distortion
- themed visual and audio variations based on the cause of death
- large pools of random lines in English and Russian
- configurable scene duration
- configurable heartbeat and breathing volume
- configurable VHS intensity
- configurable chromatic aberration strength
- optional auto-respawn
- in-game config screen on supported loaders
