Turns Minecraft into a 2D side-scroller.
Description
Sometimes living in all three dimensions can be a real stressor, so why not take a load off and live in two instead?
Two Dimensional: Reloaded transforms Minecraft into a 2D side-scroller by removing access to the third dimension and restricting player movement to a single plane along the X axis.
If you ever start to miss your three-dimensional life, just press B to access the background layer.
Based on the original mod Two Dimensional by Mishkis.
THIS MOD CHANGES WORLD GENERATION.
DO NOT USE THIS MOD ON A WORLD YOU WILL WANT TO REVERT TO NORMAL.

Usage
Hold B to turn around, allowing you to place and break blocks on the background layer. (keybind configurable under Two Dimensional: Reloaded → Face Away).
If you feel like the camera viewport size is too small, increase your FOV to see farther out.
Build a Nether portal in the background layer and right click a portal block to travel to the Nether (vanilla cooldowns and timing apply).
Optional Block Placement Guide Feature (Use Cloth Config API + ModMenu to configure)

Notes
The current build is in very early alpha, you will experience bugs, please feel free to add to the issue tracker.
Now with Iris Shaders support! I've done most of the development with Photon Shaders enabled, but you can bring whatever pack you'd like :)
Sodium & Cloth Config API are currently required. Making Sodium optional may be explored in the future, but maintaining both vanilla and Sodium-compatible versions increases development complexity.
