The Damned World is a mod based on the MMO RIFT, it's developed by Unlimited Bits, but if you aren't familiar with it, the basic principal around it being that these dimensional wormholes (see the first picture) appear in the world in the form of Tears, which will grow more and more until they become a fully fledged Rift, which can be one of six different elements depending on the biome, Air, Fire, Earth, Water, Life and Death. These Rifts spawn various types of mobs from other planes, you can approach them and fight them on a stage based combat system, i.e. a bunch of mobs spawn in one stage, and when you kill them all you go to the next stage and more and stronger mobs spawn, in some Rifts there are even Bosses.
If you find our mod presentation here, it's because it is still a work in progress. We have already made a lot of job, but nothing is really finished.
We are here to announce you The Damned World. We will realease information about it slowly, and we can already show you some picture from the game.
If you wan't to see the news before everyone, you can go look on our website here, and subscribe to the newsletter (free!). This way, you will receive an email each time we release new information about the mod.
Here are the pictures!
A Rift. A lot a evil and sometime beautiful thing get out of it.
A Shadow Crystal. Don't get too close, or you'll regret that.
The lexicon! It lets you know the utility of the items! It's like a wiki, but smaller and fit in the giant pocket of our friend Steve.
Don't get near the Shadow Crystal, they don't like you and will steal your cookies
Another rift image, with the rift level and type!!
This is The Attunement Infuser! Making things, that other thing doesnt make!
Now you are asking yourself this question: "Who are the guys that make this mod?".
Here is the answer!
The mod is made by 2 members of the Unlimited Bits modding team, Snake, a 17 years old Quebecers, and Vazkii, a 15 year old guy that live in Portugal (P.S. He is awesome!!).
If you have any knowledge, in any domain that could help us(programming, texturing, making banners(maybe later)), you can fill an application on our forum.
We also made a section in our forum where you can discuss about the mod, simply click on the appropriate link above!
The message of the end; We are in no way associated with Trion World Inc. or any of its partner. We are an independent team. The mod is also not the Minecraft version of Rift. We took inspiration in it, and mostly used our imagination to create its features. We also got idea from different books, games and movies.
I am the one who lead the project, Vazkii is, like he said, the lead coder (or my slave, I let you choose :P). I just wanted to tell that Vazkii is right, so there is no confusion.
I would have to agree with that, but snake went for kind of a NDA (Non-Disclosure-Agreement), so we can't really give out too much, but I'l get on him for that.
Hah, alright. But I like it! Who is doing your texturing... I could use a little bit of texture help for my upcoming mod, to be honest.

If I made you laugh, smile, cry hysterically, or did something that made you feel relatively happy, hit that lil' green button.
I played Rift for a while and loved it (had to stop playing due to a lack of money and parents who refuse to help me pay ) so a minecraft mod that based of it sounds awesome. Can't wait to see how it turns out.
The last picture that Vazkii published has been added, with a little description.

If you need texturing, I'll help.
Otherwise, great mod!
We are not really looking for a texturer, we are all able to make our own texture but if you think you can help, you can always post an application on our forum and we will send you an email if we need you.
False. API is coming in 1.4. The development is not stopped, he doesn't know what he's saying
Wait, what? Yeah ok
We talked about it, don't forget to mention it!
And yeah, I had to reread the 1.3 announcement to see that I am wrong, and Vazkii also told me...
What do you want, coming back from camping is really hard, even if practicing shooting with a corssbow, driving during 3 hours a quad and ruining the life of my brother is really relaxing, I'm still tired

Maybe instead of an item, Planarite could be something that drops from the mobs inside the rift in place of EXP, and acts similar to it? And has a separate gauge that's view-able inside of the rifts/inside the GUI of the Infuser?
Don't know if it's worth the effort to do that, though.
I've never played Rift, so I don't really know the direction this mod is taking.
I am strongly looking forward to this. Me and my bro are currently developing a Rift-based server, and if this is intentionally for SMP, I'd want it on my server instantly. If it's not intended for SMP, excuse me for not reading.

Looks like incredible graphic design, though.
So diamonds to you, sir.

I did the texturing of the models. Vazkiii made the gui and the new item (secret name :P) (i hate giving away to much information :P)
No, no I know that. But come to think of it, I don't really need a Texturer, I just need a coder

Irregardless, I love the heck out of that game, and I'm glad someone else sees it as a prime source of inspiration.
EDIT-vvvvvvvvvv
That's disappointing.
I've sent an email to you Vazkii, but it bounced so you didn't received it...
The development is stopped until we discuss about what we do with the 1.3 update and the API that is coming very soon!
Wait, what? Yeah ok
We talked about it, don't forget to mention it!

What kinds of mobs will there be? Or is that a secret until later?
