Two Dimensional: Reloaded

by amvern

With Two Dimensional: Reloaded, Minecraft is flattened into a single side-scrolling plane, with movement restricted to the X axis.

FabricClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.21.1 – 26.1.2

What it does

The mod flattens the game onto one plane, so players move only along the X axis and cannot reach the third dimension. Pressing B opens a background layer for a second view of the flattened world, and a right click on a portal block builds a Nether portal background layer that carries players to the Nether, with cooldowns applied to the timing.

Iris Shaders support is included, and the author notes that most development was done with Photon Shaders enabled, so other packs can be used too. Cloth Config API is required, and Sodium is optional, with Sodium Cloth Config API needed for the full set. An optional Block Placement Guide can be toggled through ModMenu once Cloth Config API is installed.

Two Dimensional: Reloaded is based on the original Two Dimensional mod by Mishkis. It is a Fabric mod for 1.21.1, 1.21.11, 26.1 and 26.1.2, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The code is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Side-scrolling plane

    Movement is limited to one plane along the X axis, so the world is played as a flat side-scroller.

  2. Background layer access

    Pressing B switches to a background layer, giving players a second view of the flattened world.

  3. Nether portal background

    Right clicking a portal block builds a Nether portal background layer and travels to the Nether as vanilla does.

  4. Enlarged camera view

    A larger field of view lets players see farther out when the 2D camera viewport feels too small.

Questions

Does Two Dimensional: Reloaded need Cloth Config API?

Yes. Cloth Config API is required, and Sodium Cloth Config API is needed as well. Both must be installed next to the mod on Fabric.

Does the server need the mod too?

Yes. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod.

Can Sodium be left out?

Sodium is optional. The author explored keeping both vanilla and Sodium-compatible versions, but the mod works without it.
