Hello everyone! After ~110 hours on the Garden of Grind, I wanted to take some pictures to show just how far I've come since beginning the grind.

Progression wise, I've made my first LV Steam Turbine, but I never wanted this to be a race. I've dabbled in some stone age Thaumcraft, bred some bees, and made probably one of my favorite base builds before looking to progress further into LV.

For those of you wondering, I am using the ruleset that Neurotic Goose did. He, Threefold, and Garden of Grind were probably the greatest inspirations in finally tackling this modpack, so huge thanks to them for the parasocial encouragement and endless entertainment Purelove

Here are some more progression screenshots over the past in-game year

Beautiful base. I'm curious what the rules are? I'm not familiar with the challenges you listed

I’d recommend watching NeuroticGoose’s series EP1, but in a nutshell:

  • No cheating, obviously. This also includes exploits if there are any which “cheat” progression
  • Everything generates as a void world. Garden of Grind on YT has an excellent tutorial on how to set this up.
  • Traveling to other dimensions is allowed, but these dimensions will also generate with no terrain or structures.
  • Using the Questbook is allowed including rewards and the coin shop (though after the “How to get Rubber” quest in the steam age I’m locked from further main quest progression)
