Angel Islands

by Klinbee

With Angel Islands installed, a world generated with the datapack gains floating islands above its oceans while regular land stays as it is.

What it does

The mod is a worldgen datapack for Minecraft 1.20 – 1.21.10, built for the Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt loaders and also usable as a plain data pack. Its floating islands sit over the oceans of the default world, and they are scattered more sparingly than the default islands, which appear mainly in the deepest ocean sections, often near mushroom islands. Server owners who want to combine it with other worldgen packs can mix it with regular worldgen or with the Aetherial Islands datapack. Lithostitched can be added as an optional companion.

Only the server needs the mod: players join without installing anything. It is open source under the MIT License, and the source code and issue tracker are public. The first release was on 2024-10-24 and the latest file, for 1.21.10, was published on 2025-10-25.

Key features

  1. Oceanic floating islands

    Islands float above the ocean surface of newly generated worlds while land biomes keep their usual terrain.

  2. Clustered island gaps

    The Clusters Edit add-on can mark zones where no islands generate, leaving large open gaps between island clusters.

  3. Combinable with other packs

    The datapack can be mixed with regular worldgen and with the Aetherial Islands datapack, and a Nether variant comes from Diabolical Islands.

How it compares

Full comparison

Floating Island For Survival is a server-side option that works on a server alone, with a BSD 2-Clause License and files for 1.20.5 – 1.21.4. Sky Islands Dimension adds a separate dimension rather than changing the overworld, and it is not open source, with files for 1.20.1 – 1.21.11.

Questions

Does Angel Islands need Lithostitched?

No. Lithostitched is an optional dependency, so the datapack works without it, and installing it is a separate choice.

What the author says

This worldgen datapack adds floating islands above the world's oceans whilst also retaining regular land generation! By default, islands are fairly frequent yet scattered over the oceans. They are found only in the deepest section of oceans, typically around mushroom islands.
