About this project

What does Ashenmoon add?

Ashenmoon

Ashenmoon is a Fabric mod for Minecraft 26.2 that adds a new dimension, The Dusk: a night-lit world of ash, moonlight and falling stars, reached through a lunar portal.

Exploration

  • Nine biomes, from glowing moonglass forests and starsalt flats to bone barrens, cinder canyons and ember marshes.
  • Dozens of structures on the ground: citadels, cathedrals, hamlets, crypts, shrines, camps and relic ruins. Reliquaries hide rare weapons and potions.
  • In the sky: floating islands, the Crescent Sanctuary (a floating crescent moon with towers and lanterns) and the Celestial Astrolabe (a moonglass sphere circled by lunarite rings).
  • Underground: mines, vaults, buried shrines and fossil galleries, each marked on the surface by a lit kiosk.
  • Traveling chests appear in unlikely places. Some hold unique loot, others are traps.
  • A custom sky, with its own moon following the Overworld’s phases and slowly turning stars.

Dynamic weather

  • Ashfall, with small fireballs streaking down from the sky.
  • Starfall, with falling star sparks and meteorites.
  • During these events, lakes sparkle and astral fishing yields new lunar fish. The moon phase changes what you catch.

Creatures and bosses

  • New wildlife and hostile mobs, such as moths, stags, jellies, mantises, wraiths, archers and shades.
  • Five summonable lords, each with its own music and a multi-phase fight.
  • The Moon Lord, the hardest of them all: three phases, a dozen attacks, and two heroic choral tracks.

Progression and gear

  • Lunarite, meteorite and several wood families (silverbark, cinderpine, lumen), each with tools, armor and spears.
  • Evolving lunarite: upgrade your lunarite gear to Awakened, then Eclipse lunarite. Each tier changes its look and adds passive abilities.
  • Lunar corruption: some resources are corrupted. Using them blurs your vision, draws monsters to you and alters your armor until you purify them at an altar.
  • Astral pearls, a very rare drop, used to craft teleportation items: astral anchor, blink shard and homeward mirror.
  • Special weapons: eclipse blade, eclipse dagger, dawn scepter and moon scythe.
  • Armor set bonuses, including night vision and an ember aura.

Quest Book

  • 86 quests in a radial tree, opened with the J key (rebindable in the controls).
  • Quests unlock in order, and rewards are claimed one by one or with the Claim all button.

In-game Codex

  • A full encyclopedia in French, English, German and Spanish, covering items, recipes, creatures, bosses, structures and patch notes.

Requirements: Minecraft 26.2, Fabric Loader 0.19.3 or newer, Fabric API. Works in single player and on servers.
