a b1.7.3 styled create pack for 1.20.1

matcha pack is an opinionated modpack for minecraft 1.20.1 inspired by classic minecraft modpacks like tekkit. mechanics have been changed to closer replicate old versions of minecraft, whilst still trying to keep (some) newer additions intact.

this modpack is currently in devlopment, and only really gets worked on when i get into the 2 week phase. pls be patient.

build factories with create

the powerhouse behind the modpack, create allows you to build large scale factories to automate a wide array of materials. one of my end goals of the modpack is to have (almost) every core material automatable. whilst a questbook is being considered for the modpack, there is no main goal in matcha++. tech is not gated behind a quest or objective, but instead only exists to expand the ways for you to aquire new building materials.

a beta styled experience

the game has drastically been modified to bring back old elements (and remove some newer ones) to replicate the gameplay of older versions of minecraft. sprinting has been removed, bringing more use to player built means of transport. hunger has been removed to allow food to have an actual use in peacefull difficulties (restoring lost health) and above ground structures have been removed, bringing back the feeling of loneliness early minecraft had. beds still set you spawn, however they no longer skip the night, removing the problem enemy mobs had of being a non issue after the first sheep was found.

immersive gameplay addons

no longer does pressing M just open a map. aquire an atlas to be able to see where you are and place waypoints about. menu's have been redesigned to maintain a vanilla feel whilst also calling back to older versions of minecraft. this is a work in progress and a lot of these features are in development and may actively change.
