Genshin Impact: Lunar Expansion (GILE) is a Minecraft Fabric mod inspired by Genshin Impact and HoYoverse. It expands survival gameplay with new End biomes, custom creatures, ores, currencies, building blocks, weapons, abilities, equipment, food, and progression mechanics.

Biomes overview image: A visual showcase of the mod's environments and terrain, including the End Threshold, a surreal biome with inverted colors; Ghostly Thickets, a highland landscape featuring lavender-leaved trees, End Grass, clouds, and physical stars; and the Moon Desert, a barren lunar landscape with Moon Sand and Dry Flowers.

Creatures and mobs overview image: A collection of the mod's custom entities, including the Ruin Guard mini-boss, colorful Glitters, Void Slimes, Ender Flies, Moths, Jerboas, luminous creatures, Hovering Ghosts, Gloomy Lynx, and Weasel Thieves. These range from peaceful ambient animals to dangerous enemies and useful trading creatures.

Building blocks overview image: A showcase of decorative and functional blocks, including two custom wood sets, End plants, Pearlescent construction blocks, Moon Sand and sandstone variants, Stars, Moon Torches, Moon Lanterns, Moon Campfires, fluorescent blocks, and rainbow Glitter blocks and carpets.

Items and ores overview image: A visual collection of resources and equipment, including Primogems, Enderite, Mora, eight elemental Sigils, and custom Luna Sigils. These resources support crafting, trading, equipment progression, and the Wishing mechanic.

Weapons and combat: Players can obtain unbreakable Elemental and Legendary weapons through Wishes, upgrade Elemental weapons, combine Legendary weapons into the primordial Phanes Blade, and acquire special Fate Collection weapons from the Wisher villager.

Tools and abilities: The mod adds Enderite tools and equipment, an End Compass for travel to and from the Moon, a Nuclear Cannon, a Grappling Hook, a Flutterer for aerial movement, a Shadow Clock for teleportation, a Heart of Healing for emergency regeneration, and Shrinker and Enlarger wands that provide invisibility or powerful area attacks.

Custom mechanics and food: Additional features include new enchantments, armor trim materials, a Primogem-based Wishing system, compostable plants, burnable wood, Star fuel, decorative non-spreading magenta Moon Fire, new consumables, and a custom advancement system organized into four main branches.

Getting started and progression: Begin with iron equipment, mine Primogem Ore, use Primogems and elemental Sigils at a Wish Table to obtain powerful weapons, and challenge the Ruin Guard in the Ancient Ruins to obtain access to the End Compass. Alternative dimension-travel methods are also available.

Compatibility: GILE is designed for Fabric and supports Minecraft versions 26.1–26.1.2 and 1.21.1, with a matching Fabric Loader and compatible Fabric API required.

Known issues and beta version: The current release reports no known issues. Players upgrading from the beta version are advised to create a new world because of substantial changes. The beta's documented issues include bow zoom and enchantment problems, spawning bugs, incorrect map colors, custom weapon fire-aspect behavior, and occasional problems with the Grappling Hook and other custom items.

• End Threshold: Visit a pretty remarquable area of inverted colors, populated by a cute ambient rainbow Glitter mob and Endermen during the night.
• Ghostly Thickets: A hauntingly beautiful highland biome featuring End Grass, towering Ghostly Trees with lavender leaves, cloud blobs, and real physical stars scattered across the sky.
• Moon Desert: A desolate, otherworldly landscape covered in Moon Sand and Dry Flowers.

Populate your world with a diverse cast of custom entities, ranging from ambient life to new threats.

• Ruin Guard: A really steady mini-boss that you can train your weapon on. Can be found in the Ancient Ruins structure wherever on the Overworld ground surface. WARNING: Pretty difficult to beat with only vanilla equipment!
• Glitters: The cutest and most cursed rare ambient mob, naturally spawning only in the End Threshold biome. Can be caught and released from the Jar of Glitters.
• Void Slimes & Ender Flies: Bouncy, dangerous monstrosities found lurking in the End biomes accompanied by the newest flying ennemy that shoots 4 Stings at you everytime.
• Moths & Jerboas: Fluttering creatures drawn to light, dropping Moth Wings and Small desert-dwellers found hopping across the Moon Desert and regular sandy biomes - cute peaceful creatures.
• Luminous, Hovering Ghosts & Gloomy Lynx: Ambient, ghostly entities that add a magical atmosphere to the Ghostly Thickets constantly being hunted by a majestic, elusive predator. Hovering Ghosts can help you to travel over the void too as can be rided with a saddle when tamed.
• Weasel Thieves: Mischievous critters with 3 tiers of rarity with coherent items to trade. Pretty useful in the normal survival world, but could also work really well on a Skyblock map, providing a lot of materials that are unobtainable there!

• Plants & Wood Sets: In the addition of some custom End plants, there are two complete, craftable wood sets (Logs, Planks, Stairs, Slabs, Fences, Signs, Trapdoors, and more) made from the new custom trees.
• Pearlescent Blocks: Craft stunning, high-tier structures using Pearlescent Blocks, Bricks, Slabs, Stairs, Walls, and Chains.
• Moon Sand & Sandstone: Smooth, cut, and chiseled variants for your lunar builds.
• Light Sources: Illuminate your base with Stars, Moon Torches, Moon Lanterns, and Moon Campfires. You have also a slightly glowing Fluo block set and animated rainbow Glitter block & carpet.

• Primogem & Enderite ores: Mine Primogem Ore (found in the Overworld and The End) to collect Minecraft's newest valuable resource. The Enderite one, that can be mined only with the netherite pickaxe, provides you with the highest tier of equipment.
• Mora & Elemental Sigils: The universal currency is now at your fingertips. Used to trade with Weasels or on server with your friends. Collect Anemo, Geo, Electro, Dendro, Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, and the custom Luna Sigils that are also can be used by you in any way you want on the server, but also to Wish the coolest ever weapons.

• Elemental, Legendary & Primordial: Wield the signature weapons of your favorite characters, using the Wishing Mechanic. These unbreakable artifacts boast custom attributes and high-tier damage profiles. Elemental ones are the only upgradeable ones, but there is also some Legendary ones, that can be crafted all together into the ultimate primordial Phanes Blade!
• Fate Sword, Bow & Arrows: You can also obtain some rare uncraftable Fate Collection weapon set from the Wisher villager, that provides you with custom on hit and visual bonuses.

GILE isn't just about what you swing; it's about how you move and interact with the world.

• Enderite Tools & Equipment set: The highest-tier tools, that serve as an upgrade for Netherite Tier - mine faster, hit stronger and stay longer in the battle.
• End Compass & Nuclear Cannon: Defeating the Ruin Guard provides you with a way to get to the Moon bypassing the End Portal - an alternative ENDing thanks to the End Compass, that can also bring you back exactly where you was! Mine faster and destroy the world with Nuclear Cannon too, if you want.
• Grappling Hook & Flutterer: Traverse the jagged cliffs or the End islands with ease. Too scared to fall into the void or just tired of climbing mountains? Make yourself an air jump ability using the Flutterer!
• Shadow Clock & Heart of Healing: Unique utility items to aid your survival. Regen your HP when it's really low and tp wherever you need at little cost.
• Shrinker & Enlarger wands: Wield these custom wands to access active abilities!
  • Shrink Ability: Toggle infinite Invisibility on and off at will when shrinked to 20% of your size to be able to hide wherever no one else can!
  • Enlarge Ability: Unleash a devastating area-of-effect slam that damages, knocks back, and slows surrounding enemies while enlarged to 180% of your initial size to travel faster, damage stronger and be healthier. It can help you with big building projects and tree chopping too!

• Enchantments & Trim Materials: Increase your reaching distance, flutter everywhere being still protected & decorate any armor you want with 2 new cozy trim materials (Wish Ingot / Enderite Ingot).
• Wishing Mechanic: Use your mined Primogems for Wishes. Used on a Wish Table with some elemental sigils, they can award you with any Elemental or even Legendary weapon. Dig your way until the ultimate primordial Phanes Blade!
• Block Logic & Moon Fire: Every added plant can be composted, wood burned and Star can be even used as a fuel. Ignite Moon Sand using a Flint & Steel to create a distinct, eerie magenta flame that does not propagate - fully decorative.
• New Consumables: Survive the harsh Outer End (Moon) by snacking on Jelly, Jam, Cooked Phasma, Glowing Chorus Fruit and the high-saturation "Offering of the Moon Goddess".
• Custom Advancements: A full well-thought-out quest/guide-line to help you progress with the mod, divided into 4 main branches.
