My most popular and most loved project is Arda's Sculks — a deep dark expansion that adds new blocks, mechanics, and a full boss fight, playable on both 1.21.1 and 1.20.1. You can find it, along with all my other work, in the Projects tab, where each mod links directly to its Modrinth or CurseForge page.

In total, I've released 12 projects for Forge and NeoForge. Some are small, focused builds — like Arda's Uncrafting Table, one of my more well-known mods, or a simple horror-themed mod and even a language resource pack — while others are bigger, more ambitious systems: golems, ore expansions, mining hammers, backpacks, and special ability mods. I like moving between scales like this; not every project needs to be huge to be worth building.

If you enjoy my work, check out my Projects tab or find me on the links — I'm always working on something new.

❓ General FAQ

Can I use your mods in my modpack?
Yes! All of my mods are modpack-friendly. You can include them in any modpack, public or private.
Can I use your mods on my server?
Absolutely. All mods are multiplayer-compatible and work on servers.
What's the difference between Forge and NeoForge?
NeoForge is the modern fork of Forge and is the primary loader I develop for. I also release Forge versions for older Minecraft versions (like 1.20.1).
Do you take mod requests?
Not directly — I work alone and prefer creative freedom. But you can always leave suggestions on CurseForge or GitHub.
How do I report a bug?
The best way is through GitHub Issues. Go to the repository on my profile, click "Issues", and describe the problem in detail.
Why are some mods only on Modrinth and not CurseForge?
I release on both platforms whenever possible. If a mod isn't on CurseForge, it's either pending approval or was only released on Modrinth.
Will you update old mods to newer Minecraft versions?
I try to keep my most popular mods updated. Older or smaller mods may not get updates, as I focus on new projects.
Can I translate your mods into my language?
Yes! I welcome translations. Contact me on CurseForge or GitHub and I'll add your translation.
Are your mods open source?
Most of them are. Check the GitHub repository for the source code and license information.

❓ Arda's Sculks – Developer Q&A

How did the idea for this mod come about?
It actually started with a friend suggesting I add powerful arms to the game. I combined that idea with the sculk theme, kept developing it further, and eventually decided to release it as Arda's Sculks.
What tools did you use?
I used MCreator throughout development. It allowed me to prototype quickly and still shape the codebase exactly how I needed it.
What was the biggest technical challenge?
Without a doubt, coding the Shadow Hunter's mechanics. Writing abilities like teleportation and fast kicks took weeks. On top of that, it was my first time designing a dedicated boss arena, so solving the lag issues that appeared was another huge hurdle.
Which loader does the mod work best with?
The most stable and compatible version is NeoForge. It also runs on Forge, but I developed and tested primarily on NeoForge, so that's where the best experience is.
What does the mod actually add to the game?
Arda's Sculks expands the sculk and Deep Dark theme in almost every direction. New mechanics, armor, weapons, boss fights, decoration blocks, and even farming areas – my goal was to deepen this theme as much as possible.
Who is the most notable boss in the mod?
Shadow Hunter. A fast‑kicking, teleporting boss that keeps you on edge the entire fight. It forces you to think strategically instead of just clicking mindlessly.
What kind of player is this mod for?
Adventure seekers, hands down. If you're looking for an end‑game challenge, enjoy intense boss encounters, and want to dive deeper into the mystery of the Deep Dark, this mod is definitely for you.
Can I play it with friends?
Yes, the mod has multiplayer support. You can play it on your own server or just together with your friends.
Will there be future updates?
I really want to continue developing the mod, but right now my life is pretty busy with daily life, school, and extremely important exams that will shape my future. Development is basically paused for now. Once things calm down, I plan to pick it back up.
How do I report a bug?
The easiest way is through GitHub. Head over to the repository on my profile, go to the "Issues" tab, and write a detailed description. I'll check it out as soon as I can.
What license is Arda's Sculks released under?
The mod is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License Version 2.1 (LGPL-2.1).
