About this Mod

Better With Time is a tech-focused adaptation of the Better Than Wolves mod for modern versions of Minecraft (1.21+). Though not as direct of an inspiration, it also shares many similarities with Better With Mods.
Better Than Wolves pioneered many technical blocks, items, and mechanics that overhauled the way players build, automate, and farm resources. Better With Time seeks to bring that classic, vanilla-adjacent, 2011-2012 experience to the modern Minecraft environment.

⚙️Tech-Focused, not Hardcore
An important note: Due to changes to the mod and viral YouTube videos, Better Than Wolves, in recent years, has taken on a new identity of being a brutally challenging, early game survival experience first, tech mod second.
Better With Time does not, and will not ever replicate these features. It will not materially affect your ability to survive the early game.
Better With Time's design goals are entirely focused on delivering a satisfying, cohesive "Technical Minecraft" experience. There are all sorts of things you can do with the new blocks and mechanics, while still keeping that vanilla feel.
