OurMod
OurMod is a Forge adventure mod for 1.20.1 that adds a new dimension, with items, blocks and a route out of it built from dirt, scrap and polluted sand.
What it does
The mod adds a dimension its author describes as the biggest project they have made so far, and it is a close relative of the Dirtmension idea. Progress starts with plain dirt. A dirt pickaxe is made from dirt and sticks, and an upgrade is applied at a later stage, so early tools come from the ground itself.
Getting out of the dimension requires a set of sifters, which are needed to recover grass, logs, leaves and other resources. A sifter is crafted from cobblestone, a sediment gem and dirt. Iron comes from eating enough scrap apples to collect iron nuggets, and polluted grass is made by combining dirt with polluted sand, then sifted back into regular grass blocks.
The overworld key is the way back, crafted from four overworld key shards that are combined together and placed in a console. The author notes the recipe needs five gritstone ingots, two sediment ore and two rotrock dust. The mod is marked as a beta release, with 0.2.0 announced as the next update and more than 150 items and blocks planned. It is published only for Forge 1.20.1 and is not open source, under All rights reserved. Installation covers the server and each player's game.
