Project Alpha

You'll likely recall the eerie ambiance of Alpha Minecraft. This mod offers a way to experience this environment once again—an opportunity to forge a modified gateway leading to an entirely new dimension.

Drawing inspiration from Kane Pixel's evocative Backrooms series, this mod was made using MCreator

Embark on a journey fueled by the long-forgotten experiments of the futuristic entity known as A-Space Inc. Through the careful arrangement of Modified Iron Blocks, you hold the power to transport yourself to the enigmatic realm of A-Space.

Within this otherworldly expanse, dense fog blankets seemingly boundless plains adorned with vibrant green foliage. However, appearances can deceive, and this alternate reality harbors secrets not immediately apparent. As the sun dips below the horizon, perilous creatures emerge, ominously labeled by A-Space Inc. as "White Eyes" (their true nature can be inferred). Amidst the expanse, abandoned research stations and camp sites bear witness to the company's ventures.

Among the array of novelties, a pinnacle discovery awaits—A-Space Inc.'s abandoned experiment, the memory corrupter. This device possesses the extraordinary capability to manipulate previously curated memories, unraveling their contents in unprecedented ways, among other intriguing functionalities. The mysteries that await in this dimension are abundant, promising an immersive and riveting journey for intrepid adventurers.

I strongly recommend using JEI with this mod!

Crafting Recipies:

Some crafting recipies are available in the screenshots section of the CurseForge and Modrinth modpage. However I do recommend the use of mods such as JEI or REI for certain recipies.

Special thanks to lavatrench for structures and lore development! Means a lot!

What do I do?

You start your A-Space journey by, first, locating an abondoned research lab, which are usually located in plains biomes. Upon finding the structure, you will see a broken down time machine and a chest containing documents. You need to rebuild the time machine using special modified iron blocks crafted from modified iron ingots, which are formed by combining a regular iron ingot and an iron modifier in a smithing table. Upon reconstructing the time machine, you must ignite it with the A-Space key. To craft an A-Space key you need a flint and steel, an eye of ender and a time modifier. Once you have ignited the time machine, you can step through it, and travel back in time to Minecraft Alpha. However - take heed of this warning: something has gone terribly wrong. This form of the past, in practice is essentially the same, but when night comes, terrible creatures lurk in the distance, so be wary. Lastly, if you really want to push the limits of the A-Space, you can form the corrupted A-Space key, and travel back to a further corrupted Alpha. While I will not reveal the secrets of this place, just be warned: only the most skilled and bravest adventures make it out alive...

FAQ

Q: Will there be a Fabric version?

A: A Fabric version is low on the priority list. Since the mod is made in MCreator, developing a Fabric port will be difficult, but I wouldn't rule it out.

Q: Will there be backports?

A: A similar answer here - I'm not sure about MCreator support, but it may be possible in the future - only to versions such as 1.18 or 1.16 however.

Q: How do I craft *item*

A: Yes. I know recipies in this mod can be confusing at the best of times, but I assure you, important recipies are included in the screenshot section in the CurseForge and Modrinth modpage. I also encourage the use of JEI or REI with this mod too.

Current Mod News

There is currently an issue with MCreator where the A-Space and Cursed A-Space dimensions have no dense fog. I believe that dense fog is an important element of the mod, so for the time being, development is paused. This seems to be an issue with MCreator itself, but it will be fixed in the near future. Then, I plan to release 0.19. It's mainly a small update, but it polishes some features. It also fixes an issue with the night time looking a bit quirky with the light-coloured sky. Again, nothing much can be done with the mod until the fog issue is fixed, but I'm happy with the current state of it for now. I appreciate your support!
