A BepInEx mod for Lethal Company that displays randomized death, monster encounter, and event messages using the game's built-in HUD notifications instead of chat.
All messages are client-side — each player needs the mod installed to see the notifications. Uses the game's native notification system (no custom UI).
| Death (Gravity) | Event (Jester) |
|---|---|

| Event (Ship Leaving) | Death (Snare Flea) |
