Retrospect · Dimensions
by Dzwmhyk
Retrospect · Dimensions adds the Between Discs, a dimension reached through cracks between worlds, where players can explore with creative-mode flight.
What it does
Between Discs is a separate dimension with its own gameplay rules, in contrast to the Overworld. Entering it switches the player to creative-mode flight, which supports free exploration. The author describes the mod as rebuilding the underlying framework of the game, so a self-consistent, narrative-rich multiverse can be explored at a player's own pace rather than along a fixed path.
The mod measures progress through achievements. The total number of advancements a player has earned feeds into the Epoch, a currency granted during daily settlement and used to run the Steel Monolith, which needs Epoch to keep operating. A Steel Dome effect applies within range and restricts the use of certain mod items, which can mark safe zones or challenge areas with custom rules. Retrospect · Dimensions is built for NeoForge and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under the Apache License 2.0 and is not open source.
