About this mod Author’s original text

Child Tweaks

Reworks Frolic (teleport)

  • Frolic is now directional (think Huntress' long blink but shorter range)
  • Frolic is now a skill (this is more internal, but it's more predictable)
  • Frolic is no longer triggered when taking damage
  • Frolic no longer adds invincibility

Tweaks Spark Ball (projectile)

  • Spark Ball damage is reduced 600% -> 300%
  • Spark Ball no longer grows visually, size remains consistent
  • Spark Ball no longer slows down, speed remains consistent
  • Spark Ball now has custom flight SFX for better sound cues
  • Reduced Spark Ball spawn distance (spawns closer to Child to prevent unfair hits)
  • Increased Spark Ball max activation distance 37 -> 45 (now activates ability farther away)
  • Decresed Spark Ball min activation distance 25 -> 20 (now activates ability closer to prevent constant running away)

General Tweaks

  • Slight AI tweaks for more sprinting and navigation

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
