MineLibera: The Hero's Journey mod for Minecraft

Yes yes, the long awaited and anticipated first major release of the epic Minecraft total conversion -- MineLibera, has shined its Lite!

But before we dive into it, in case you're new here, let's get acquainted.

What is MineLibera?

MineLibera is my ultimate vision for what Minecraft could, or really always should have been since its release, from the perspective of an old school gamer - manifested into reality!

I've played Minecraft since the Alpha days, when I was 14 years old. It was a different time back then, when notch was still the sole developer - and I feel that I understood his original vision for the game.
As the game changed, together with notch's situation (he became stupidly rich very very quickly) I was naively hopeful that the game could be as awesome as it first seemed, like this mysterious, freedom oriented oldschool RPG.

But as the versions kept increasing and its developers distanced themselves further away from notch's vision, I realized that the game was becoming a digital toy for children, rather than that sweet RPG I and many fans at the time were envisioning. Eventually, I knew I had to do something about it.

So with my love for the original vision of Minecraft at heart, I embarked on a mission to turn Minecraft 1.5.2, the last *acceptable* version of Minecraft in my opinion, to that lost treasure of my childhood.

How does it change Minecraft 1.5.2?
ML integrates a handpicked selection of amazing mods such as a specific version of the Better Than Wolves mod (4-A1) and a Thought Table feature (originally the Research Bench mod.)
But that's just the beginning. MineLibera fixes dozens of bugs in vanilla Minecraft, offers dozens more improvements to its mechanics, systems and general gameplay, and expands upon all of them to bring better harmony and balance, increase logic and reasoning, and add cool items and blocks to the game while amping up the level of challenge. All while staying true to the vanilla feel of the game, with an ode to its Alpha days.

What does it actually change?
Well, there is a changelog provided with the release which you can take a look at (but be careful of spoilers, better go at it blind!) but technically ML Lite alters/adds over 370 classes to the original source code of MC 1.5.2 with BTW 4-A1. Which is a lot.. and yet you'll be amazed at how vanilla-like the game still feels!

Why "Lite"?
This release marks the light version of the game, while the complete version is still to be developed. There is no estimated release date for the complete version as I will work on it whenever I will find the time and passion for it. That being said, MineLibera Lite is by no means a "beta" release, however it is a somewhat incomplete form of what the final MineLibera will be, whenever it will be released... (in the future!)

So can I play it with my friends?
I will be working on porting the "RealLan" mod as soon as I possibly can which should allow for joining LAN worlds across the internet using VPN softwares such as Hamachi. Be sure to join our official Discord server to be up to date on that and to have a chance to join our first MineLibera MP world when we get it setup!

Special Thanks
Goes to all the talented programmers and artists who's work I borrowed for MineLibera. Needless to say this wouldn't have been possible without you.
A big thanks to all you who joined and participated in our Discord server and kept me going through this long development cycle of nearly a year of daily work! (with some breaks, of cource.)
