Requiem

Version 2.0.0:

Warning: this update is still in early alpha. Most new features are still unavailable in survival mode, some are still completely missing, and things may randomly break.

Really important warning: future alphas are extremely likely to break compatibility with worlds started with this alpha. Don't start using those versions on any world you care about.
