Sky Block Harvest

Sky Block Harvest adds an Ex Nihilo–inspired progression system focused on sieving, farming, and resource processing to turn dirt, gravel, and sand into valuable materials in Skyblock gameplay.

Description

🌱 Sky Block Harvest

Sky Block Harvest is an Ex Nihilo–inspired mod designed specifically for Skyblock and progressive survival gameplay, focused on sieving, farming, resource processing, and tier-based progression.

Instead of simply extracting ores from the world, players build their progression from dirt, gravel, sand, and plants, transforming simple materials into increasingly valuable resources.

The long-term idea is for Sky Block Harvest to evolve into a full modpack in the future (once modpack support is available).
For now, mods are downloaded separately — at the end of this page you will find:

  • Required mods (mandatory for Sky Block Harvest to work)

  • Optional mods (highly recommended and used in the official world)

⚠️ Mob progression is currently limited on purpose. controlled, instead of forcing vanilla-style mob farms.

🌍 Official World (Recommended)

To play the mod as intended, you can use the official world:

👉 Sky Block Harvest Map

🧺 Sieving (Core Mechanic)

At the heart of Sky Block Harvest is the Sieve system:

  • Sieved Dirt → seeds, plants, and basic resources

  • Sieved Gravel → Ore Pieces

  • Sieved Sand → rare components, crystals, mushrooms, and special items

Each material has tiers (T0 to T5), increasing:

  • Drop quality

  • Chance of rare items

  • Access to advanced resources

🪨 Ore Piece System

Unlike vanilla gameplay:

  • Sieves do not drop ores directly

  • They drop Ore Pieces (Piece_Ore_*)

Examples:

  • Piece_Ore_Iron

  • Piece_Ore_Copper

  • Piece_Ore_Adamantite

These pieces can be:

  • Combined into Ore

  • Processed later into ingots

👉 This creates a slower, controlled, and Skyblock-friendly progression.

⚙️ Processing & Crafting

  • Crushed Ore represents fragmented, processable ore

  • Players must:

    1. Sieve materials

    2. Collect ore pieces

    3. Process them

    4. Refine them into usable resources

Everything is designed to avoid broken progression and preserve long-term challenge.

🌾 Farming & Plants (Major Focus)

Sky Block Harvest places heavy emphasis on farming systems:

  • Common, rare, and decorative flowers

  • Bushes, ferns, and special plants

  • Multiple mushroom types

  • Magical crops (mana, stamina, health)

Rare plants only appear at higher tiers with very low chances, encouraging:

  • Automation

  • Dedicated farms

  • Strategic planning

🛠️ Specialized Tools

The mod introduces unique tools such as:

  • Sieve Pickaxe / Hammer

    • Inefficient on normal blocks

    • Highly effective on sieved blocks

These tools are part of the progression and do not fully replace vanilla tools.

🧱 Benches & Progression

The mod uses benches for:

  • Crafting

  • Processing

  • Resource combination

Progression is designed for:

  • Skyblock worlds

  • Custom maps

  • Long-term survival modpacks
