Project Alpha

Thank You Everyone for 100,000 Downloads!

You'll likely recall the eerie ambiance of Alpha Minecraft. Project Alpha offers a way to return to this environment once again.

Drawing inspiration from Kane Pixel's Backrooms series. This mod was made using MCreator.

This is not, and will not be, a dweller mod. All creatures featured have normal monster AI.

You will investigate the long-forgotten experiments of the futuristic entity known as A-Space Inc. Through the careful arrangement of Magnetized Iron Blocks, an arpeture between the Overworld and the suffocating realm of the A-Space can be created and traversed.

Within this otherworldly plane, dense fog blankets seemingly boundless plains adorned with vibrant green foliage. As night falls, dangerous entities known as the "White Eyes" may rear their heads once again. Throughout the expanse, abandoned research stations and camp sites bear witness to the company's ventures.

I strongly recommend using JEI with this mod!

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

Please give feedback and report any bugs that you spot!

Crafting Recipies:

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

What do I do?

You start your A-Space journey by, first, locating an abondoned research lab. Upon finding the structure, you will see an eroded gateway of magnetized iron blocks. You need to rebuild this gateway, and forge these blocks using magnetized iron ingots, which are formed by combining a regular iron ingot with magnorite in a smithing table. Upon reconstructing the gateway, 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 with devastating effects. The very air you breath is toxic, requiring the production of a hazmat suit when entering, and 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...

Essential Information:

In order to get certain blocks, you need to utilise a Block Reversion Device to produce the Alpha counterpart of a specific block. I.e: To get cloth, you must reverse wool. Reversion works by placing the modern block onto the  machine, and providing a redstone signal to reverse it. Alpha Grass and Oak Planks may be further reversed into pre-classic variants, however a temporal callibrator may need to be placed above the apparatus for this to work.

The White Eyes Totem can be found in an Emberstone Shrine located in the corrupted A-Space dimension.

The Time Modifier is craftable. You must place a clock into the top slot of a brewing stand, with an echo shard as the ingredient.

This is how to craft a time modifier. Hope this helps!

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 be a port to [insert version]?

A: Porting to other versions (e.g: 1.18.2, 1.19.2) is not very high on the priority list, however you can expect some of these ports when the mod is in a more polished state.

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 this modpage. I also encourage the use of JEI or REI with this mod too.
