The Murk

(name subject to change)

Murk

The Murk is a horror-themed Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 that transforms darkness into a deadly threat. Venture into the shadows unprepared, and face the chilling consequences of Murk's Grasp, a debuff that creeps up in low light levels, bringing fear and danger to your world.

Features

Murk's Grasp Effect:

Triggers in low light levels (default: below 3) after 15 seconds of darkness, with a warning message at 5 seconds.
Applies a harmful status effect with a dark purple hue, slowing movement by 15% and dealing scaling damage if you linger in the dark.
Persists for a configurable duration after entering a lit area, with optional Blindness effect.

Dynamic Light Detection:

Supports held items, dropped items, trinket slots (via Trinkets), and nearby players’ light sources to reset the darkness timer.
Configurable light sources with customizable luminance and water sensitivity.
Integrates with LambDynamicLights for realistic light checks, requiring line-of-sight to light-emitting items.

Configurable Gameplay:

Customize light thresholds, dimensions (e.g., Overworld, Nether), and effect behaviors via config/murk.json5.
Options to enable/disable underwater light checks, Creative mode effects, and warning messages.

NOTES:

Inspired by mods like OminousDarkness and Grue but built for Fabric.
