Liminal
by MakakRussia
Liminal brings liminal-space atmosphere to Minecraft, with eerie empty rooms and corridors built for exploring.
What it does
Liminal spaces are the unsettling, familiar-but-wrong settings that have drawn attention in internet horror. Liminal adds that theme to Minecraft through blocks and places that players can move through and explore. The mod runs on NeoForge and needs both the server and every player to have it installed. Files exist for 1.21.1 and 1.21.8, with 1.1.0 for 1.21.1 as the latest file. The code is closed: Liminal is released under All rights reserved.
Key features

Places to walk through, which suit horror maps, adventure maps and creepypasta-style builds.
Atmosphere-focused content

What the author says
Hello everyone This is the Liminal mod; it adds DreamCore, Backrooms, and PoolRooms. So far, there’s very little content here, but I might update it once a month (the difference between updates 1.0.0 and 1.1.0 is 2 months, because my project got stuck), although that’s not certain. The next update might be at the end…
