About the mod

Shadow Mounts is a mod made for SpookyJam 2024, which adds the Shadow Saddle item. This unique saddle can be put on any horse, and it will transform it into its shadow form. The texture will darken and markings will take on soul fire blue. When ridden, it will show particle effects!

At the moment the effect is purely visual, but I plan on adding more features in the future.
