Instructions for debugging:
1) Go to your minetest/bin folder
2)Find the debug.txt (should be at the top)
3)Delete it
4)Open Minetest and try to play the world so that you get the mod error
5)Close Minetest
6)Open the debug.txt
7)Post all of the contents here, preferably in a code box
8)Also post the mod code
9)Someone will try and see what's wrong with it

Neither do I.

Maybe you should post the error message(s) from debug.txt...

EDIT: Aye, see previous post.

Have you read this?
And this?
Does the "evil_squid" folder exist?
Does the "evil_squids" mod exist?
Does the file "api.lua" exist?
Have you added the word "mod" (without "") to "depends.txt"?
Does the mesh "evil_squid_derpy_squid" exist?
Is there something wrong with "evil squids_derpy_squid.png"?
Is "default:inksack" in the mod "default"?
Is this the complete code you have?

I think you should put a download link- easier for people to debug the code, and maybe upload a working version.
