Whilst my team over at
Angry Pixel have been working hard on the revival of our main mod,
The Betweenlands, I have been working on a little side project with a good friend of mine. This mod was largely conceptualised and designed back in 2012, however it was never brought to life and implemented into the game... until recently.
So, what does this mod add?
Well in case the title wasn't obvious enough, this mod adds a brand new hostile water mob to the game - the Aqua Creeper! Whilst for the most part it behaves as a regular creeper would if it were a fish, this terrifying creature has some fiendish tricks up it's wet, scaly sleeves. Oh, and it looks cool too.
When you're minding your own business swimming around in the ocean, be sure to stay away from these guys; being naturally water-dwelling creatures, they have the advantage of speed. Even if you're on a boat, they will swim beneath it and blow you straight out of the water.
But don't think you're safe on land either! If you stand too close to the water, the Aqua Creeper will just leap out at you and explode in your face after flopping around for a bit.
