Hi, not being rude or anything, but could you please do a video on this mod when it’s a little more fleshed out? I’m sure the mod is more developed now, and I’d love to see it!
Id actually love a minecraft mod that mix speculative evolution concepts like All Tomorrows and Man After Man with incomprehensible Aliens and Godlike multidimensional creatures from Lovecraft's mythology. I just love aliens in different forms and shapes
Well, I know a discord server where a tira alien biosphere mod is being made, and there are working versions(though I herd there was some team troubles)
I believe you can datapack that. Ad astra has support for making arbitrary dimensions rocket accessible, and the naturally generating portal could simply be disabled by worldgen datapack files. I was thinking that too, could be a great alien world
Should be easy, the way Ad astra planets works is each planet is actually a dimension. Pretty sure they have some documentation for it on their discord. Should be as simple as a data pack in fact
Honestly this mod looks perfect for using a homemade car or vehicle with valkyrien skies and clockwork. Just imagine driving around this world with your only safety being your truck. Sleeping, crafting. Making sure that nothing breaks down so you don’t end up stranded
I think I saw about a project like this from much earlier that was cancelled, glad to know it’s all back and that I can now experience Wayne Barlowe’s world in Minecraft!
_After all this time, there is _*_FINALLY_*_ a spec evo Minecraft mod…_ _You have proudly earned my eternal respect, and i shall rest in peace, completely fulfilled…_
The Alien Planet documentary made my childhood i had a DvD i watched a lot hudreds of times I also never called alien planet i always spoken Darwin 4 instead because this i lost media of the documentary for some time but i found back some years ago and find out about the book wich had even more content that hanst been showed in the documentary Thank you for this
Hi everyone. I'm friends with the creator of this mod and am currently working on a spec evo mod as well, involving other projects like The Future is Wild, After Man, and Serina: World of Birds. It's basically a miniature Alex's Mobs and will be for fabric 1.19.2.
This documentary and the future is wild is what got me into speculative evolution/biology. Great to see it getting implemented into Minecraft as a mod.
Its enough to make a grown man cry, and thats more than ok, the book expedition was one one of my favourites from childhood, and to see it in a mod in minecraft is just beautiful and something I didn’t know I really needed
one thing i wish for this mod to change is the skybox. i know it’s kind of minor, but in the actual book, the skies are clear and sometimes blue (although not all the time. it would be cool if you could have different sky boxes for different biomes)
Very awesome! I really like the concept of speculative evolution mods, especially if it's something _that_ well-made (Well-made for MCreator at least). The creatures look absolutely fantastic! Some points of criticism are the speed at which big mobs turn around, particles appearing from thin air (which, to be fair, also happens in vanilla), rendering bugs with tall blocks (can be fixed by splitting those blocks in two), item models at 4:45 (an easy fix), jetdarter Z-fighting at 8:42 (can be fixed by making the wings 0.01 bigger on the Y axis), boss bars, audio lag (this is about the video itself, not the mod) and some other minor stuff. Otherwise, this is one of the greatest mods made in MCreator!
God, this is so beautiful, I have long dreamed of seeing something like this in Minecraft, thank you for this mod, it is wonderful, just like its creator :)
Oh my god!! I watched the video adaptation of the original book in middle school and I was obsessed, then I found out it was originally a book in college and was obsessed again. And now it's in Minecraft! This is so so cool!
I feel like if they want to make the skewer’s flight more accurate they should use something similar to the Phantom’s AI. Phantoms already swoop down, ram into the player and fly away so it’s perfect.
Honestly, I think a fun way to get to this world for now instead of the portal would be having a rare treasure item in chests be THE Darwin IV artbook, all tattered-like. Throw it into the end portal like that one infinite dimension snapshot years ago and BOOM. Maybe even have it specifically found in librarian chests occasionally and guaranteed in the stronghold library chests.
HAHAHAHAHA FINALLY, AFTER ALL THESE YEARS! Im not sure if the two amoebic enemies are fresh creations or from the extended Expedition artwork, but they are an interesting addition to the Amoebic Sea and add a uniquely Minecraft touch to the mod. Also, I would be surprised if the Skewer borrows some code from Phantom's if a bit tweaked--primarily soaring high up before diving and swooping in for an attack.
Incredible...he pulled it off! I hope over time the author will add even more content from the book, especially more fauna biomes, for example, the Pocket Forest with its unusual predatory doggerwist, or the prairie, where unthas and cows running away from the prairie-rem will fight.
Oh my... OH BOI!!!! THIS. This is not what i expect to see today... But I'm not complaining - quit the opposite. This mod deserves... NO - IT MUST HIT WIDER AREA OF VIEWS. The masses must learn of it, NOW. The book and the documentary adaptation are still one of my favorite specbio stuff by long margen. And now it's get Minecraft mod, which i don't even thick of, and now, when i just woke up, i want to see more of it. The surprise to be sure, but the welcome one indid.
woah, never though I would see a mod based on the Book Expedition from Wayne Barlowe, now that is cool, considering it's still in early development, I assume more of the animals from the book, such as the gyro sprinters, will appear, and the possibility of seeing another Villager-like mob with the eosapians. also for anyone who's interested in wanting to know more about Expedition and the animals shown here in this mod, I recommend you get the book, as the mobs in this mod will have their biology and ecology explored in more detail, or watch the alien planet documentary, or if you want a shorter explanation, I recommend the video that Curious Archive has did on the world that Barlowe has made here.
Part of me wishes making everything the sizes they really are would be feasible but then i remember that those two drones are canonically as large as dump-trucks and as such a whole lot of the aliens are, well... massive.The Arrowtongue is larger than a t-tex, not to mention the Grovebacks and Sea Striders being building-sized. Would be kinda spectacular to see things that big... but would be kinda hard to interact with them at all.
I appreciate you using the Xen ambient sound affect from Half life. I watched the animation a handful of times and it amazes me how fascinating we speculate on alien life, to the point where as we study our current real world surroundings, we get a better idea how other creatures may or could live.
@@UnkleDunklee Understandable, it even sounds alien. Though one thing I would like, as weird as it sounds, if not only having crash ships on the planet, but also crashships on the overworld for a chance of a Yuga device, though the crash sites are a rare spawn. Nether stars are still painful enough to get.
I did a double-take so hard when I scrolled past this. I spent no less than 5 hours one week rewatching the cgi "documentary" on early CZcams. Disconnect seems to take just as much from the books though (which I have yet to get a chance to read) as I'm pretty sure nothing called the Yuma ever came up in the movie.
I think those were a benevolent alien race (not from Darwin IV) that were helping humanity in the book, and took a few of them to Darwin IV as part of an 'Expedition'. I could be wrong, but I remember the name at least being mentioned.
hopefully they put intergration with ad astra, and make it on same system as Glacio. Ad astra really needs late game content. This is perfect for that. A truly alien world to head forward towards!
100K!?!?!?!?
Yep :)

@@Swagger_Meister_Supreme This mod is awesome and Id love to make more content on this one possibly!
@@UnkleDunklee hey-o!
someone made a mod on an obscure childhood book i adored??? never in a million years would i expect someone to make a mod for this, its great so far
I know right! I hope more spec evo projects come out for minecraft
obscure?
I think more likely it’s inspired by the animated ‘documentary’ that’s based off the book
@@Grakalor probably. (also tabs pfp)
Expedition is children's book?
SPECULATIVE EVOLUTION IN MINECRAFT LETS GOOOO
Id actually love a minecraft mod that mix speculative evolution concepts like All Tomorrows and Man After Man with incomprehensible Aliens and Godlike multidimensional creatures from Lovecraft's mythology. I just love aliens in different forms and shapes
@@mrzirak792 honestly speculative evolution fits incredibly well with Minecraft, so i hope people keep doing them, because this is great!
There was one guy on Deviantart who made few Serina animals in minecraft graphics, but sadly nothing more
Well, I know a discord server where a tira alien biosphere mod is being made, and there are working versions(though I herd there was some team troubles)
@@minestar2247no way minestar
an integration between this mod, and Ad Astra, replacing the portal system, would be mega cool.
ooo yes!!
I believe you can datapack that. Ad astra has support for making arbitrary dimensions rocket accessible, and the naturally generating portal could simply be disabled by worldgen datapack files. I was thinking that too, could be a great alien world
Should be easy, the way Ad astra planets works is each planet is actually a dimension. Pretty sure they have some documentation for it on their discord. Should be as simple as a data pack in fact
Ad Astra?
@@BrunoMaricFromZagrebThe modern Galacticraft basically
I watched that mocumentary about 4000 times as a kid
I personally liked the book better, but the mocumentary had its own flavour to it.
@@n.g.s1mple29 lol. I didn't even know there WAS a book until that Curious Archive video
@@jazzbefos9303 goated video
Saaaaaame
@@jazzbefos9303 That's where I came accross it; I went on to watch the whole thing. Even in 480p it's great
NO WAY
I literally got back into minecraft and likes speculative evolution
PERFECT MOD FOR ME
YESSSS
Thanks for 100 likes btw
Same
I obsessed over Alien Planet when I was a child. This is a dream come true!
I still obsess over it as an adult!
Honestly this mod looks perfect for using a homemade car or vehicle with valkyrien skies and clockwork. Just imagine driving around this world with your only safety being your truck. Sleeping, crafting. Making sure that nothing breaks down so you don’t end up stranded
It is the nature of man to turn any given species, no matter how speculative, into roadkill.
This mod seems extremely promising, looking forward to the full release
We speculative biology nerds are eating good tonight
YES🗣️
YEAAAAH BOIIII
I think I saw about a project like this from much earlier that was cancelled, glad to know it’s all back and that I can now experience Wayne Barlowe’s world in Minecraft!
I believe this wreckage at 0:48 is supposed to be probe balboa from the documentary, this is just awesome
i’m pretty sure it’s a downed hovercone. it might be a reference to the yma researchers who crashed into each other in the book?
@@anomalocaristheabnormalshr3248 ohhh forgot about that part in the book, yeah your right that makes way more sense.
Excuse the background noise, I forgot to mute my mic 💀Also the audio is behind for some reason.

Yes alien Planet
“A space craft from another solar system invades the night sky, but this is not our sky.”
*”And we are the invaders.”*
Now all we need is for someone to make a mod based on _The Future is Wild._

Proper spec-bio scifi worldbuilding implemented as a Minecraft dimension mod? Yesss. This is how it should be.
This this Mod is amazing, can't wait for the full release
This mod feels like it's specifically targeting my childhood
This mod holds a lot of potential! I look forward to seeing how it develops.
Never thought I’d see a Minecraft mod about a speculative evolution project, not complaining tho
Never in my life would I have seen a spec evo project be turned into a MC mod of all things, I am all for that!
Definitely a mod I’ll check out when it fully releases
This is.. insane!
After you're at a place where you're happy with this mod, i'd love to see you take on some of Kosemen's works.
God, this is so beautiful, I have long dreamed of seeing something like this in Minecraft, thank you for this mod, it is wonderful, just like its creator :)
I loved the documentary, this is awesome
I adored watching that little CGI documentary type thing. cant wait to check out the mod.
Dude this is awesome!!! I love spec biology! I remember watching the mocumentary when I first got into this stuff. Can't wait for this to finish!
duuuuuude this is awesome!!! i literally have my copy of expedition in arm's reach as i type this, i'm hyped as hell to see this finished eventually
absolutely love this book. the work of wayne barlowe is timeless. im very excited for this mod
I've waited years for something like this! I love Darwin IV. Looks awesome!
Damn this is nostalgic asf my jaw dropped when i saw this i cant wait to see the Grove back 🔥
Oh my god!! I watched the video adaptation of the original book in middle school and I was obsessed, then I found out it was originally a book in college and was obsessed again. And now it's in Minecraft! This is so so cool!
No way! I remember watching the documentary based on this book as a child! Super hyped for this!
This looks stellar! Love the book and the documentary.
I'm actually crying rn. THEY MADE MY CHILDHOOD INTO A MOD!
I've Never Read/Seen The Book But I Adore This Mod! It Perfectly Enraptures That Early Gritty And Grungy Sci Fi Alien Feel
Cool, I like documental movies like Darwin IV!
1:07 nice half life music
Profile picture checks out
YAY CHILDHOOD IS BACK!!
Mod is truly epic, really want to see something like this with Future is wild
Alien Planet? Wow, what a a time machine. I remember seeing its show years ago.
I used to watch that documentary over and over again in 2014 on my iphone 3Gs when I was a kid
всё это напомнило мне Scorn и его атмосферу угнетения и одиночества во враждебной среде
спасибо что есть такие авторы как вы
I feel like if they want to make the skewer’s flight more accurate they should use something similar to the Phantom’s AI. Phantoms already swoop down, ram into the player and fly away so it’s perfect.
this is beautiful oh my god thank you for bringing my childhood to life

This reminds me of "The Betweenlands" to some degree, I love it.
This would go great with Ad astra allowing you to actually fly there as an endgame location

No puedo creer, está increíble, gracias por desbloquear un genial recuerdo
I give the CZcams algorithm a hard time but every now and then it gives me gold like this!
This is sooloo cool!!! Love how it's actually based on the book instead of the mockumentary
Scavenger's Cease & Desist letter.
A joke,referencing the YT animation SCAVENGERS &the cartoon it created,SCAVENGER'S REIGN.
this is absolutely awesome. i've never heard of expedition but i really like this. it reminds me of my own mod that i'm making on mcreator
The slow scroll back up as the remembered what Emperor Sea Striders were.
I'm in awe
woah, never though I would see a mod based on the Book Expedition from Wayne Barlowe, now that is cool, considering it's still in early development, I assume more of the animals from the book, such as the gyro sprinters, will appear, and the possibility of seeing another Villager-like mob with the eosapians.

HOLY CRAP I REMEMBER SEEING A CG MOVIE ABOUT THIS AS A KID!!
Bro the movie they did on Darwin IV was literally my favorite movie as a child and I thought it was all real.
It would have been way cooler if this was all added to the overworld to truly make minecraft alien
I remember hearing about this on a Curious Archive vid, holy shit!

oh my god i loved this documentary as a kid
this gives me old modpack vibes which is a good thing. Also reminds me of a lot of speculative evolution projects that i have read or heard about
this is looking so good so far, keep up the good work!
This is actually so cool, I remember watching the video for it on youtube!
Omg, i loved the documentary :)
the mob animations are pretty impressive

Looks like it! Let's goooooooooo!
Wait, what? I never expected these two interests of mine to converge ever.
I love Wayne Barlowe’s Expedition. He’s made some other great illustrated books as well.
I was planning on doing something exactly like this for bedrock
You beat me to it congratulations
Oh my god, thos takes me back to the documentary
I was so obsessed with Expedition as a kid
I am so excited for this!
Now this.. is my bread and butter. Spec evolution in Minecraft!? mmmmmm
Omg yes! I thought this idea for the mod was gone years ago.
love the creepy design keep up the amazing work
Damm, this hits me hard with the nostalgia.
This is just…. incredible!
I'm not a fan of Minecraft, but seeing Expedition being remembered is honestly insane
Clapping my hands like a DAMN seal about this finally getting released
hopefully they put intergration with ad astra, and make it on same system as Glacio. Ad astra really needs late game content. This is perfect for that. A truly alien world to head forward towards!
YESSSS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!!!
I grew up watching some fan made alien planet music videos plus the documentary so allow to sum up my thoughts on this mod: Ahem,
*Excited Screaming*
Oh my God they added Wayne Barlowe to Minecraft I fucking love it 🤩🤩🤩
