The Moon
The Moon adds a Moon dimension that players reach by travel, with gold deposits, new advancements and a landscape with little life.
What it does
The dimension is reached through a travel route the mod adds, and its surface is described as sparse, with few living things and some structures. Underground, the mod places gold in large amounts, and the author describes the surface as only the first layer of what the dimension holds. Reaching it is the main challenge the author names.
Hostile mobs from the overworld can appear on the Moon, and its sky draws on the End texture, so custom End sky packs work with it too. The low gravity sets how movement feels there, with a jump boost and slow falling available to players.
The Moon runs on the server, so only the server needs it and players can join without installing anything. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack for server platforms. Files exist for 1.21.3 – 26.1.2, with 1.0.1+mod for 26.1.2 as the latest build. The code is open source under the MIT License.

Welcome to the Moon, a... well, moon, devoid of life and structures. But that's only on the surface. Underground, you can find gold in amounts beyond your wildest dreams.
