Dreamtinker
by Brahypno
Dreamtinker is a Forge addon for Tinkers' Construct that adds moonlit materials, ritual weapons and armor built around soul and fate mechanics.
What it does
Dreamtinker extends Tinkers' Construct with original tool materials, new modifiers, new fluids with casting recipes, and ritual-style crafting. A number of its materials go beyond flat stat values: certain ones follow the cycle of the moon, others respond to soul mechanics, and some scale with player statistics or tie into curses, death, protection, loot and particular enemy types.
The addon is meant to make Tinkers' Construct feel less like a linear upgrade path and more like a system of interacting parts. Unstable artifacts, weapons that remember kills, and armor that bends with death and sanity are all part of that design. Dreamtinker requires EsotericismTinker, Mantle and Tinkers' Construct, and it is released under the MIT License and is open source. It is published for Forge only, for 1.19.2 and 1.20.1, with the latest file for 1.20.1 dated 2026-09-28.
