Eyes in the Darkness Mod — Reference

The Eyes (Mob)

The primary feature of the mod is the "Eyes" entity. This creature does not have a traditional physical body; instead, it manifests as two glowing white pupils that hover in the dark.

Statistics

Behavior

• Stalking: The Eyes spawn in total darkness near the player. They do not make footstep sounds, making them difficult to detect until they are close.
• Observation: They will stay at a distance, watching the player. If the player turns to look directly at them, they will often vanish instantly with a faint, unsettling sound.
• Aggression: If the player ignores The Eyes for too long or allows them to get too close without looking at them, the entity will initiate a "jumpscare" attack. It will rush the player, deal damage, and then disappear.
• Light Sensitivity: The Eyes cannot exist in high light levels. Placing a torch or moving into a well-lit area will cause them to despawn or retreat.

Items

The mod adds a single item that serves as both a trophy and a crafting component.

Eyes in the Darkness (Item)

This item is dropped when the player manages to kill the Eyes entity. Because the entity vanishes when looked at, killing it usually requires quick reflexes or area-of-effect attacks.

• Usage: Primarily used as a crafting ingredient for Eyes of Ender, providing an alternative way to reach the End without hunting Endermen exclusively.
• Stack Size: 64

Recipes

The mod provides a recipe to integrate its drop into the vanilla progression system.

Eye of Ender

Note: This recipe allows players to obtain Eyes of Ender by braving the darkness and fighting the stalking entities rather than relying solely on Enderman spawns.
