In this version of Skyblock 5: Above the Clouds, you play with a friend. One of you starts in the Overworld, the other in the Nether. While the Nether player tries to get back to the Overworld, the overworld player works to prepare zombie villagers and a witch to get villagers as soon as the Nether player joins them. Work together to get all the advancements!
(If more than 2 players join, the pack will alternate between sending players to the Overworld and to the Nether, so it's a good gamemode to play on a server!)

Like in Skyblock 5: Above the Clouds, the world generation is modified, so there is no world border. I also changed the world bottom to be at y=192, so you're above the clouds once you get back to the overworld.

The black fog that appears when you go below sea level is lowered to 30 blocks above the bottom of the world, and it appears more gradually as you go down.

There are no surrounding islands where you can get items from different biomes, as you can get most of those from the wandering trader. You'll get some of the items he doesn't give you as a reward for advancements.

A free cam feature is added to the datapack, so you can see your builds from a distance!

The map has custom advancements, some of which I've left like Skyblock 5's, others I changed. The book you're given in the starter chest contains some hints if you get stuck, but if you have any questions, feel free to post them below. Alternatively, you can join the discord, where we also share screenshots! The datapack tends to break when minecraft updates, but I update the pack quickly after. Join the discord or sub to stay up to date! Enjoy the map!
