Saw Tapes is a mod that adds new mini-games. These games are triggered by a tape from which the infamous killer Jigsaw will explain the rules of the game to you.
The Survival Game simply consists of surviving for a given amount of time against various creatures from a room in which you will be locked.
It's possible to configure the rooms in which you want to play, as well as the monsters to face and the duration of the mini-game based on the room and the horde of monsters. See the configuration section for details.

The Hunting Game starts when a player comes within a configurable distance of the tape.
The targeted player is gassed and appears in front of the tape, along with a shovel and wearing the iconic "Reverse Bear Trap" on their head. The mini-game's objective is to remove the trap within the time limit.
To remove the trap, the player must find the key, hidden within the entrails of a specific monster. If the tested player kills a monster that doesn’t have the key, it will drop a "Pursuer Eye" item instead, allowing the player to reveal the aura of the monster they need to find. This aura is also revealed at the start of the mini-game, giving the player some direction and possibly identifying the correct monster.
Warning! To prevent players from searching for the monster before the mini-game begins, they can't stray far from the mini-game's starting point without facing punishment. They must start the tape, which will trigger the game once Jigsaw finishes explaining the rules.

The different files mentioned below are created when the game is launched (if they don't already exist), and you can find them in the 'config' folder.
The 'ST.survival_game.json' file allows you to configure everything necessary for this mini-game.
It is organized into two main parts:
To add a new horde, copy an existing block while paying attention to the JSON syntax (you can use online validation tools if needed), then:
To add a new room, do the same, copy an existing block, then:
To do this, use the classic config file associated with the mod and enable debugging (disable it during a game session as it may cause slowdowns). You also need to modify the BepInEx.cfg file to enable the console and set the 'Debug' level for the 'Logging.Console' section (it's best not to keep this enabled during a game session either). Then, launch the modded game and explore the dungeon. When you change rooms, the following log will appear:
[Debug : SawTapes] Enter in the StartRoom(Clone) tile
[Debug : SawTapes] Names of the different possible connections for each doorway:
[Debug : SawTapes] ---
[Debug : SawTapes] - SteelDoorFrameMapSpawn
[Debug : SawTapes] - SteelDoorMapSpawn
[Debug : SawTapes] ---
[Debug : SawTapes] - SteelDoorMapSpawn
[Debug : SawTapes] - SteelDoorFrameMapSpawn
[Debug : SawTapes] ---
[Debug : SawTapes] - SteelDoorMapSpawn
[Debug : SawTapes] - SteelDoorFrameMapSpawn
[Debug : SawTapes] ---
All the necessary configurations can be found in the mod's classic config file
The 'ST.subtitles.json' file allows you to change the subtitles: 'timestamp' is the field that corresponds to the moment when the sentence is displayed on the screen according to the recording duration of the tape and 'text' is the sentence displayed.
