Floating Gardens is a skyblock pack based on Garden of Glass. It adds several small quality of life and building mods to flush out the experience. The pack aims to improve those parts of the game while still feeling like a "pure" Garden of Glass pack.

I've made quite a few small changes to the pack to make sure everything is obtainable. I've added recipes to everything from Rustic herbs to Quark cave crystals, so you should be able to obtain just about everything.

Building Mods:

The pack includes a handful of building mods. The big ones are:

Natura
Rustic
Earthworks
Quark
Bibliocraft
Corrial Pillar
Chisels and Bits
Barkifier
Ranbow Oaks
Colorful Water
Charset Chests
Sign Picture

Quality of Life Mods:

I also added a few quality of life mods. The big ones are:

Better Builders Wands
Simulsax Transtructors
Super Sound Muffler
Tape Mouse
Simple Harvest
Fast Leaf Decay
Quark Oddities
Forgiving Void
Worse Barrels
Impart

Custom Islands:

You can choose between five islands when you start a new world.

Shard:

A detailed lime green crystal is surrounded by a stone ring and four small islands. This island type gives you easy access to alfglass and four colors of Botania grass. These are aesthetically pleasing, but won't let you progress faster.

Floating Gardens - Shard

Two Stones:

This one gives easy access to dirt, stone, and a small amount of coal ore. Monsters can spawn on the lower island at night, so be careful.

Jungle Star:

This one is the most generous island. It's made of six islands connected by jungle bridges. It offers multiple colors of Botania grass, sugarcane, plenty of dirt and stone, a Rainbow Oak tree, and a single petal apothacary.

Classic Skyblock:

This is a replica of the classic skyblock map from many years ago. The chest contains leather armor, roots and a single piece of ice.

Floating Gardens - Classic Skyblock

GoG:

This is the classic Garden of Glass island everyone knows is still available if you want the classic GoG experience.
