About Cave Dweller ReEvolved
From ModrinthContinuation of the Cave Dweller Evolved Mod by SiverDX.
Cave Dweller ReEvolved
The Cave Dweller is a creature that roams in the caves, waiting for the time to attack its prey. It will make sounds as it gets closer, evidencing its presence.
Announcement
As of the upcoming release of the stable 1.4 version, the mod will no longer be maintained. I'll move on with a new project that will try to be the "Spiritual Successor" of the Cave Dweller. I can't give too many details about the project right now, but all I can say is that it will try to provide a unique horror experience, introducing a progression system and a variety of events/behaviors, which will unlock as the player progresses.
About
This mod is a port of the Cave Dweller Evolved Mod, created by SiverDX (Candentem). As this mod was heavily based on his code, all credits goes to him.
Even though this mod is supposed to be a port, it includes some minor tweaks/improvements and adds some features that were never introduced in the Evolved version.
