About this Modpack
"I created this as a modpack for friends, but I figured the experience was so good I'd release it to the world. It took a lot of love and care to put together, and I'm happy to be able to share it with everyone. Thank you." - N1ckel28
There is no linear way to go about this modpack aside from boss progression. I didn't want players to feel completely restricted.

This modpack is centered around Create and several of its add-ons, creating a steady and player-friendly tech progression system. Most notably, Create Aeronautics, adding an entire physics system that'll truly knock your socks off.
To help smoothen logistics, mods such as Sophisticated Storage and Tom's Simple Storage are here to help manage your ever growing stockpile of items.
Utilizing KubeJS, new items and recipes have been added to bridge gaps in automation.

Vanilla systems have been enhanced to add new flavor. The changes are as follows:
- Boss progression has been linearized and bosses are harder to fight
- Horses have been upgraded, making them more viable as a means for transport.
- Villagers have been updated, making them harder and more rewarding to manage.
- Fire has been updated to be visually appealing and more difficult to put out.
- Elytra and packed ice boat skating have been nerfed.
- New boats have been added to enhance travel by sea.
- Mining is much more easier using a veinminer system.
- Maps have been updated, allowing for use as minimaps.
- Explosion mechanics have been enhanced and beautified.
- Fishing has been enhanced
and so much more!

Atmosphere has been enhanced, breathing new life into biomes and even the weather system.
It'll feel like you're playing a completely new game.
