Horror by Death - The horrors of Returning by Death.

You die and you come back. Over and over. You die, many, many times. But there is a place you still want to reach. A dream, you don´t want to end. But you will never reach it. You look up to heaven, whilst going through the hell you´ve been thrown in. Try to reach the dream you have, the dream of beating the game you´re a part of.

Multiplayer possible, although buggy.

Immersive experience recommended with: Shaders, Sanity Mod, Mine:Zero and literally any other horror mod.

WALKTHROUGH:

1.5+:

Content:

• Fixed returning mechanic - randomized cutscenes/interactions
• Insanity for dying too much 
• Detects Chat message for the Subaru Player - punishes him for telling that he returns by death
• Shadow Garden implemented
• Echidna´s tomb and it´s Book of Riddles

---NEWLY ADDED IN THE 1.1+ Versions :---

You are not alone. You are not there alone. Something, or someone is there too. When you always think that you know everyting, there will be something more. Someone was there before you and changed the world to what it is now. But something happened... 

>>Lore is heavily connected to the idea of Returning By Death<<

>>Lore is partially connected to the lore of "Re:Zero - Starting life in another world" Anime"

>>ECHIDNA UPDATE<< [b1.2.0 + ; 1.2.0+]

• After a fixed amount of deaths, Echidna will give you an offer for a contract
• Accept it and you will discuss the details in the witches garden
• You will be able to accept a deal at the end.
• But break that deal, and there will be punishments.
• (In the dialog, most questions are answered yes/no. The mod does not really pick up any signs of agreement/disagreement)
• • Starting Death Count: 47
  • One instance of dialogue there is a hidden scene. If you write anything else at the right time, it will play.
  • Echidna will demand you die every ~20 minutes
  • If you ignore the call, there will be three reminders ~2.5 minutes separate.
  • Long last, you will be cleared and killed if you don´t kill yourself in game in the time given, the speed of events will crank up and echidna will terminate your contract.
  • Your benefits: You can ask for help a few times.
  • KEY WORDS - 
  • To start the detection, write "Echidna [rest of the text]"
  • For items: "Echidna give me a (stack of) [item name]" -- IMPORTANT: Item name has to be singular and (stack of) is an optional thing.
  • For effects and experience: "Echidna give me [strength/speed/protection/health/experience]"
  • Other prompts:
  • "Echidna [kill (everyone/me) /teleport me to {x} {y} {z} /save me]

-- 1.4.2 UPDATE --

• Added 8 dimensions:
• Dreamland, Snowland, Cubeworld, Infinite library, True World, Unreachable staircase, Metastasis and Core
• Dimension-specific events
• Added another ending 
• Lore expansion (There will be a future video to it)

BIG CHANGE: LLM-IMPLEMENTATION INTO THE MOD

• Now the player will get a smart AI (Through Gemini API), that can chat with the player, is aware of the world and can interact with the world/your computer (Only if allowed)
• GeminiAPI will be required in one of the events - THIS DOES NOT TAKE YOUR API KEY, IT DOES NOT STORE IT ANYWHERE ELSE THEN IN THE GAME FILES, IT IS NOT HARMFUL IN ANY WAY
• Satella is aware of player position, dimension etc. + it can estimate fearfullness through complicated YAW calculating procedures
• If you DONT wish your API/Your computer to be used, the trigger event can be refuted
