Epic Death Screen

Epic Death Screen replaces Minecraft's default death screen with a cinematic custom sequence.

Instead of the vanilla death menu appearing instantly, the player gets a stylized blackout scene with heartbeat and heavy breathing audio, VHS-inspired visual noise, scanlines, chromatic distortion, and randomized motivational messages. The effect is designed to make dying feel dramatic instead of abrupt.

The mod includes:

  • a full custom death sequence instead of the vanilla death screen
  • blackout, VHS noise, scanlines, tracking artifacts, and text distortion
  • themed visual and audio variations based on the cause of death
  • large pools of random lines in English and Russian
  • configurable scene duration
  • configurable heartbeat and breathing volume
  • configurable VHS intensity
  • configurable chromatic aberration strength
  • optional auto-respawn
  • in-game config screen on supported loaders
