🤔 What is Bees and Beyond?

Bees and Beyond is a modpack for Minecraft: Java Edition that attempts to introduce content to the game that doesn't stray too far from what is deemed to be Mojang Studios' vision on Minecraft and its future. The mods are fairly lightweight and are meant to bring in new content that you can easily adapt to and understand, using it to change your perspective on how you play through the game.

🤨 Okay, cool… but what's with the name?

This modpack was initially designed to be exclusive to Minecraft 1.15.2, but as time went on I realised that this modpack would eventually die out and become less interesting as newer versions of Minecraft start releasing. I've decided that I will try my best to port my modpack to future versions of Minecraft where possible, maintaining gameplay and style as close as possible to previous releases. The name stems from this fact, as it was my way of saying "yeah, this is the Buzzy Bees update but with much more interesting content!"

😳 Sooo… what can I expect out of this modpack?

The mods included in this modpack range from small tweaks to improve the game's performance or visuals, to lightly changing gameplay mechanics to make you think about the best approach when playing through survival mode, adapting to your surroundings. You will come across new biomes, mobs, blocks and structures whilst adventuring throughout the world of Minecraft: Bees and Beyond.

Optional Mods

Listed below are a selection of mods I recommend you install alongside this modpack for a better experience. These can range from mods that I either could not include in this modpack due to legal reasons, or mods that I think don't quite hit the criteria for this modpack but are still cool to use regardless.

OptiFine - A mod that provides performance improvements for the game, allowing for higher frame rates on lower-end computers. It also provides extra graphical enhancements like shader pack support, higher resolution resource pack support, and anti-aliasing to smoothen the edges of blocks for a cleaner look.
Just Enough Items - A mod that allows you to view every single item and recipe featured in-game.
