Pages Of The Peak

Pages of the Peak

Created by Red Leader

Current Version: 0.1.1

A Slenderman-inspired horror gameplay mod for PEAK.

Search each biome for cursed pages, build stamina regeneration, survive Watching encounters, and escape Slenderman as every page makes the climb more dangerous.

⚠️ Early Release / Beta

Pages of the Peak is still under active development.

The mod is playable in both solo and multiplayer, but this is still an early release and some systems are continuing to be tuned.

Possible issues may include:

• unusual Slenderman AI behavior
• pages spawning in imperfect locations
• multiplayer synchronization edge cases
• animation or visual issues
• performance differences between systems
• compatibility issues with other PEAK mods
• balance changes between updates

Please expect updates as testing continues.

🌑 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: Pitch Black PEAK

⭐ STRONGLY RECOMMENDED COMPANION MOD ⭐

For the intended horror experience, Red Leader strongly recommends using Pages of the Peak together with:

Pitch Black PEAK by tony4twenty

Pitch Black PEAK transforms PEAK's lighting and atmosphere with features such as:

• FullDark gameplay
• an optional Day/Night Cycle
• lantern-focused navigation
• improved darkness and environmental lighting
• multiplayer-synchronized darkness settings
• additional nighttime atmosphere

Pages of the Peak includes special Slenderman lighting behavior designed with dark environments in mind.

When the blackout treatment is active, Slenderman can become extremely difficult to see without a flashlight, allowing his silhouette, face, and hands to emerge from the darkness only when illuminated.

Recommended Experience

For the strongest horror atmosphere:

Pages of the Peak + Pitch Black PEAK + FullDark

Pitch Black PEAK is not required to play Pages of the Peak. The mod can still be played with normal PEAK lighting and the standard day/night environment.

Compatibility with Pitch Black's optional Day/Night Cycle is continuing to be refined so Slenderman can react appropriately as the world moves between daylight and darkness.

Huge thanks to tony4twenty for creating Pitch Black PEAK — and for being a cool dude to talk with!

📖 What Is Pages of the Peak?

Pages of the Peak adds a new horror objective to the normal PEAK climbing experience.

Every biome contains cursed Slenderman pages hidden throughout the playable area.

The basic idea is simple:

Find pages. Get stronger. Make Slenderman angrier. Survive the climb.

Pages provide a stamina regeneration reward to the player who collects them, but shared page progress also increases the threat level for everyone in the lobby.

Slenderman can begin by quietly observing players from a distance.

As more pages are collected, encounters become more aggressive and can escalate into full Hunts.

📄 Collectible Pages

By default, each biome contains:

24 Pages

The amount is configurable through Gale / BepInEx.

Pages are placed around PEAK-authored item and spawn locations instead of being randomly thrown anywhere around the mountain.

The placement system attempts to avoid:

• buried pages
• pages inside mountains
• inaccessible cliff geometry
• out-of-bounds areas
• cramped cracks
• bad terrain surfaces

Every page has a synchronized world position in multiplayer so all players should see the same page in the same location.

Custom Slenderman-style page artwork is used when the included page AssetBundle is available.

🎮 How To Play

• Start a normal PEAK run

Launch PEAK with Pages of the Peak enabled and begin a normal climb.
