Slumberbound
by daviteleste
Slumberbound adds a Dream Dimension that players enter by sleeping at night in a bed, with a dream realm reached through the sleep mechanic itself.
What it does
Sleeping at night in a bed carries the player into a separate dimension called the Dream Dimension, instead of skipping to morning. The realm is a pastel, suspended world between light and shadow, where floating islands sit in fog under endless skies and time flows differently from the Overworld. Players who drift into it can explore the dream, and the author describes it as a place where reality bends and thought takes form.
The mod is built around sleep as an adventure hook. Time in the realm is limited by a dream timer, and when it runs out the player wakes back in the Overworld. The author notes that the waking can leave effects that depend on what the player did there, sometimes blessed and sometimes cursed. Slumberbound runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.1.

Slumberbound turns sleep into an adventure. When you go to bed at night, you don’t just skip to morning — you enter the Dream Realm, a tranquil, pastel world suspended between light and shadow.
