STILL WATCHING

V1.0.9 IS OUT NOW

Forge 1.20.1 horror survival where fog hides movement, sound becomes evidence, and something in the dark notices you before you notice it.

The fog is not empty. The silence is not safety.

Build carefully. Explore slowly. Listen before you move.

Latest documented release: Still Watching V1.0.9. Update through CurseForge, back up your worlds, and keep client/server versions matched unless you enjoy debugging smoke with a spoon.

Best played at night with headphones, low brightness, and just enough confidence to make your first mistake.

THE 10-SECOND PITCH

Still Watching is a focused Minecraft horror survival modpack built around fog, darkness, stalking entities, brutal nights, cursed exploration, and cinematic paranoia.

This is not a kitchen-sink pack wearing a cheap monster mask. The world is hostile by design: forests disappear into mist, structures feel like bait, caves stop being resource tunnels, and every distant sound has the manners of a threat.

Official downloads belong on CurseForge. Avoid random reupload sites unless malware is somehow part of your horror experience.

WHY THIS PACK HITS DIFFERENT

Fog-first atmosphere Visibility is part of the threat. Distance, darkness, weather, and terrain turn normal travel into bad judgment with legs.	Sound-led horror Footsteps, knocks, whispers, growls, echoes, and distant movement are warnings, traps, and occasionally your obituary warming up.
Stalking entities Threats follow, ambush, mimic, punish careless routes, and wait for you to relax.	Survival over power fantasy Gear helps, but it does not make you untouchable. Awareness, preparation, and escape routes matter more.

THE EXPERIENCE LOOP

Prepare before nightfall. Panic is expensive.
Explore forests, caves, structures, lonely paths, and cursed places for loot and answers.
Listen before moving. Sound is often the first warning and the last mercy.
React when stalking entities turn your plan into comedy.
Return with better gear, worse nerves, and fewer lies about being safe.

MAIN THREATS

Layered dread. Familiar myths. Things that should not be outside your base.

THE ANOMALY

The Anomaly is the signature presence of Still Watching. It makes shelter feel temporary, quiet moments feel staged, and survival feel like something you borrowed.

OTHER HORRORS IN THE FOG

The Man From The Fog Turns misty terrain into a hunting ground.	Apollyon Destruction given form; planning becomes reaction.
The Knocker Makes hollow sounds feel like a countdown.	Herobrine Classic Minecraft myth reframed as sightings, structures, and hostile nostalgia.
The Mimicer Makes familiar things unreliable. Trust becomes a liability.	The Goatman A dark-woods stalker for forests, bridges, and lonely routes.
The Midnight Lurker Thrives in darkness and punishes slow reactions.	Siren Head Weaponizes sound, distance, and terrible curiosity.
Cave Dweller Reimagined Turns mining into a liability and every echo into a reason to leave.	And more Layered threats, hostile routes, cursed places, and enough paranoia to ruin your shortcut home.

EXPECT THIS

Fog-heavy horror exploration.
Sound-based tension and danger cues.
Stalking entities, hostile encounters, and moments where running is correct.
Forests, caves, structures, roads, cursed places, and risky loot routes.
Survival pressure without turning the game into a factory spreadsheet.
Multiplayer panic when everyone realizes the noise was not decorative.

DO NOT EXPECT THIS

A peaceful building therapy pack.
A kitchen-sink profile stuffed with random mods until the loading screen begs for death.
A pure tech, factory, or automation experience.
A safe power fantasy where gear solves every problem.
A pack that stays balanced after you bolt 40 random mods onto it and pray.

Mod Loader	Forge
Java	Java 17 if your launcher asks
RAM	5GB minimum; 6–8GB preferred

MULTIPLAYER / SERVER NOTES

Use the same modpack version on server and clients.
Match Minecraft 1.20.1 and Forge versions exactly.
Keep backups before updates or server migrations.
Do not dump client-only visual, shader, UI, map, or rendering mods into a dedicated server.
Test world generation and joining before inviting players.
Voice/audio setup is worth testing before the first real session.

A mismatched server pack is not mysterious horror. It is bad admin work wearing a cheap mask.
