From the creator of Brass and a couple other reasonably successful modpacks comes an entirely new experience: Rotary Skies!

You wake up and look at your floating rock of dirt. It seems so familiar, somehow, but then a massive meteor screams through the sky overhead. Welcome to Rotary Skies!

Rotary Skies is the authorized Rotarycraft-centered Skyblock modpack. The start seems similar enough, but as soon as you get steel, a whole world of engines, gearboxes, grinders, pumps, and centrifuges opens up!

Work through over eighty quests as you go from cobblestone generators to fusion reactors! The quests guide you but don’t hold your hand. They’ll tell you what you need to do next, but not exactly how. In Rotary Skies, the “how” is the fun part!

There is no sieving in this modpack! What are you, some kind of caveman? No, until our liquefaction machines and centrifuges are up and running, we hunt for ores in the nether, like men (or other strong, mighty genders)!

We also keep bees, and by “keep bees” I mean selectively-breed and genetically-modify bees in our quest for the uberbiene: the ultimate bee! We’ve also got trains and stuff, so that’s cool.

Eventually the day will come where we will obtain the elusive and mysterious Crystal, allowing us to escape from our Sky Island and into pocket dimensions of our own creation, full of resources and incredible creatures.

Rotarycraft was my favorite back in the day! Super excited to play this pack!

Nice, does it have the performance mods? My steam deck seems to really need them.

It has fastcraft. It's a pretty light pack, performance wise, so hopefully should be good on a steam deck, though I haven't tested it on one.

Looks brutal (in a good way)

Can’t wait to play it!

Based on 1.7.10? Woah. Was there a reason for that?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

That's the version Rotarycraft is on.

Rotatrycraft? Gosh that's a name I haven't heard in a LONG time! Anyways I'm just happy that some of Reika's mods are getting some recognition. Small suggestion: prehaps you should use the GTNH fork of NEI? It is much more modern and has many features backported from newer mods.

Nice! I've never messed with Rotarycraft, so my brother and I are downloading to play right now!
