Sanity: Descent Into Madness Mod

Sanity: Descent Into Madness introduces a very engaging new mechanic into the game - Sanity. This represents the player's overall mental health. Maintaining a good mental health is necessary to avoid various different consequences, including death. And it can be measured by observing the brain icon added by this mod. You can find it next to your inventory HUD.

Certain activities reduce your mental health. This includes:

• Being hungry
• Consuming unhealthy food
• Getting wet
• Being near insane players
• Getting hurt
• Staying in the dark
• Being around monsters
• Having your movement restrained
• Listening to unsettling melodies
• Breaking infested blocks
• Trampling farmlands
• Hurting animals
• Letting your pet pass away
• Teleporting between dimensions
• Getting struck by lightning
• Provoking an enderman

These activities greatly reduces your sanity and the world around you becomes darker and darker. You will soon start having hallucinations. You will start seeing imaginary figures - monsters that want to kill you. If adequate measures are not taken, your own imaginations will end up consuming you - DEATH.

So how can you increase your sanity? Just like how certain activities have a negative impact on your sanity, there are also activities that have a positive impact. They are:

• Staying fed
• Enjoying a company of your pet or sane player
• Listening to calming melodies
• Walking on dirt paths and carpets
• Being near campfires
• Sleeping
• Fishing
• Spawning chickens from eggs
• Wearing a garland
• Earning advancements
• Breeding and shearing animals
• Trading with villagers
• Eating healthy food
• Potting flowers

The easiest and the most convenient way to take care of your sanity is by wearing a garland. To do this, simply pluck eight small flowers from your surroundings and place it in a 3x3 crafting grid, leaving the central slot empty. This crafts a flower garland, an item you can wear on your head to control your loss of sanity.

Furthermore, this mod is highly configurable and therefore it is possible to tweak certain gameplay elements to your liking.
