Hey, Ard here, creator of the "Art Update" mod. This is the first version of this mod. I plan to develop it in the future; I have many ideas for it. The idea for this mod arose because my friends and I were missing something in our game that could enhance spells or attract items like a magnet. I started creating this micro mod, which was supposed to be available only for us for a one-time use. Then I got into it and made textures for blocks and thought I'd add a biome... then I added a few more, and it became a huge thing... and I couldn't resist and not finish it. Finally, the idea for a boss and another update was born. The mod adds several new biomes and a new dimension.
This dimension is based on a dark blue forest, deep within which stands a castle, where the terrifying Artist lurks. Defeating him grants artifacts of incalculable power.
The mod starts by crafting Ancient Stone blocks and burning an echo shard on a campfire.
The mod also adds blocks and items that make gameplay a bit easier.
For example, the "Upgrader" block. It increases the level of all spells by taking 5 level bars.
Or "Magnez" an item needed to more easily collect items that are lying around or that can be lost due to lack of inventory space.
Or "Transport Crystal," which allows you to transport any 5 mobs.
The mod begins with finding the “Art House” structure. Inside the chest, the player can find an ArtBook, which serves as a small guide to the mod. New information will be added there to make the game easier to understand, including how to activate the portal to the new dimension, other hidden mechanics, and more.
The mod is still in active development. At the moment, I’m working on completing the current version of the mod.
For now, there is no boss in the game. I’m still working on it. You will be able to find the boss structure in the game once it is ready. I want to make sure the boss is properly polished, and I hope that in the next update you will be able to play the full version of the mod rather than just the beta. :)
If you have any questions or would like to see the mod’s progress, feel free to write in the comments or follow my Instagram: @art_update.mode. I’ll be sharing development progress, new features, and other updates related to the mod there.

And there are many other interesting things this mod adds. If there's enough interest, I promise to release further updates very soon.
