🚀 Features

• 3 Dynamic Modes (Sneak + Scroll to Cycle):
  • SHRINK (25% Size): Grants a significant movement speed boost, activates Stealth Mode (hides your name tag and makes your movements entirely silent), and makes monsters completely ignore you.
  • GROW (100% Size): Safely restores a player's physical scale, stealth status, and movement speed back to vanilla defaults.
  • GIANT (150% Size): Increases your size by 50% at the cost of a slowness movement penalty. Falling or jumping from high places triggers a massive Ground Stomp Shockwave that blasts nearby entities into the air with vertical knockback.
• Self-Targeting: Look straight down (75° pitch or lower) and right-click to blast yourself with the active mode.
• Cinematic Visuals & Audio: Features bright, color-coded particle laser beams (Aqua for Shrink, Red for Giant, Yellow for Restore) paired with custom high-tech sound design for weapon triggers, mode switches, and target impacts.
