Explore the world, make weapons, find valuable resources, make a strong base (perhaps, using abandoned bases?), and try to live, before all those **things** out there destroy you.

A new dimension (or alternate universe), where the overworld has been taken by parasites a little earlier, with parasites on their last phase of evolution, feasting on what is left.

# Run, Think, Defend, and Live.

Explore the world, make weapons, find valuable resources, make a strong base (perhaps, using abandoned bases?), and try to live, before all those things out there destroy you.

Scavenge for supplies, discover new items that can help in your survival, and cooperate with other survivors (more like, friends, if you have any).

## Features ## ### Parasites Hostile beings that quickly adapt and evolve into creatures that can infect ANY living thing around them (except creepers for some reason), so you better do everything you can to prevent the destruction of your world!

### Tools and Weaponry Several items to aid you in survival, from backpacks and simple longswords, to guns, grenades, traps, and others.

### A New Dimension(?) A new dimension (or alternate universe), where the overworld has been taken by parasites a little earlier, with parasites on their last phase of evolution, feasting on what is left. There is some really overpowered loot you can find though. It is not recommended to enter unless you are prepared.

### World Options There are a few options for you to choose in, all with their own features.

I'll be making a survival guide for those who have NO idea what they're doing, so wait up for that!

## I talked about world creation types you can choose from, down here!

Uses Vanilla Generator (Not recommended)

> Default (Boring, isn't it? This won't get you anywhere.)

> Lost Cities (Not intended for use anymore, as loot in chests are only intended for The Reflection to use.)

> Lost Cities + BOP (Not intended for use anymore, as loot in chests are only intended for The Reflection to use.)

Uses OTG Generator

To use these world options, you need to press the "Create OTG World" button in the world list, and pick between these two.

> The Wildlands (Cool terrain generation, with huge mountains, volcanoes, and others. Though, doesn't generate any oceans, less structures (just think of it as a hard mode of some sort!) and is incompatible with Biomes O' Plenty.)

The Reflection (new dimension)

Note: This dimension will get an overhaul featuring more ~~immersive and bigger buildings/cities~~ (I'm not sure if I'm able to do this), more loot to find, and not look so dry.

The Reflection, an Alternate Universe, where players were a successful civilization.
