The Abyss Escape

by Polr

The Abyss Escape places players in a frightening dimension where they must find a way back to the overworld, and it is built as a short challenge after they are trapped.

What it does

Once a player is caught in the Abyss, the mod turns the trip into a small escape puzzle. The dimension holds an Anglerfish mob, pool tiles in eleven block variants with matching light steel blocks, a glowing Mysterious Light and chlorinated water. Liminal Stones are crafted from a nautilus shell and four prismarine shards, and small liminal pool structures can be found in deserts.

Escaping means finding the portal room, lighting the Abyss portal to go through it, and locating a hidden Diving Helmet, which is the only armor piece added. An Abyssal Key can be recovered from a container on the abyss platforms, and right-clicking the escape steel block with it returns the player to the overworld spawn. The mod is released for NeoForge only, with one file for 1.21.4, and it runs on client and server, so both need it. The code is not open source and the mod is licensed under All rights reserved.
