Celestial Challenges | Atmospheric Puzzle Map

You find yourself waking up from a nightmare by a strange chime. But you don’t wake up in your bed, no. You lay on a strange bridge in what looks like the eye of a storm, but, It’s strangely calming…

Can you find a way to escape and return home?

This map was made with atmosphere first. I wished to make something that you wouldn’t just see, but feel.

The map has a story, there is a reason why you are where you are. But I have not developed it too much further. I want the player to wonder and imagine. Not just know from being told.

Practical Information:

This map is supports both Singleplayer and Multiplayer

The map should support any number of players. But there are some differences between Singleplayer and Multiplayer. For example might dialog be slightly different. In Multiplayer there’s also a second route to a part, but it all ends up in the same place.

Singleplayer works, but the puzzles might take a little longer to complete.

Suggested playercount: 2-3 players

Settings

There’s custom music that is balanced with the slider being at 100%, try to keep it there.

There’s sound effects in the Hostile and Friendly Mobs sections. Try to keep them at 100%.

Try to keep master at around 100%. But you are welcome to change it if needed.

Mods/extras

Required Mods:

This map is made to be used with the Eclipse shader pack. This means that you will need to download that and use it with Iris.
I do also suggest enabling ‘Shader Grass’ when using Eclipse. This can be done by manualy finding it, or by using the shader settings file that comes with the latest version of the map.

A shader that runs a little lighter than Eclipse is Solas. So you can try that if you are not able to run Eclipse.
Remember still, that you will not have the exact same experience as with Eclipse

While technically playable without it, you will not have the same experience.

Make sure to disable clouds when playing without shaders.

(Not tested with other shaders)

Suggested Mods:

Sound Physics Remastered

Simple Voice Chat

Extras:

There is a resource pack in the map folder called “resources.zip”.
It should automatically enable if you play in singleplayer. However you need to make sure everyone has it if you are playing on a server.
It can also be found Here.

Playtime

Playtime will depend on both your playstyle and playercount.
