Host Lights Out

Lights Out is an adventure, cursed and game-mechanics Minecraft mod with 3.9K downloads on the Orca catalog. It runs on Datapack, Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, so it slots into a matching Minecraft profile without hand-patching anything. Lights Out is free to download and free to host on Orca: press Play and Orca launches Minecraft with Lights Out already installed, or host it on a free server to play with friends. There is no control panel and no config files to edit, and no command line to learn. Describe what you want in plain English and Orca installs Lights Out along with the loader and Minecraft version it needs, then you and your friends are playing in minutes.

Fear the dark like never before. Lights Out turns Minecraft's night into a near pitch-black abyss, where only the brave (and well-lit) survive.

Add any libraries Lights Out depends on (the Modrinth page lists them) into the same folder, then start Minecraft on the Datapack, Fabric, Forge and NeoForge profile.
