📋 About This Mod
☠️ What is this all about?!

[]1 in 10000 Chance for Skeleton Jumpscare Every Second, this mod adds a 1/10000 chance every second of triggering a Skeleton jumpscare during gameplay;[/]
[]A tiny chance of chaos, because apparently the game still wasn’t stressful enough on its own.[/]
💡 Future Plans:
At the moment, this mod does exactly what it says: a very small chance for a running skeleton to cross the screen every second. If interest is high enough, I may consider:
-
[]More visual events: additional random jumpscare-style effects with similarly low odds;
Config options: adjustable chance, sound settings, and toggle options for those who prefer peace of mind;[/
][]Polish improvements: minor visual/audio refinements if needed.[/]
⚠️ Disclaimer: I won't be responsible for anything else happening due to this. Use at your own risk.🔨
