Curated PEAK
A reimagined PEAK experience with thoughtful improvements, expanded mechanics, and curated customization.
About this mod Author’s original text
Not balanced yet, will be in next few updates, this modpack was meant for playing with friends. Thanks for your patience. Any feedback will be appreciated.
This modpack reworks PEAK while keeping its core identity intact.
It is not vanilla, but it is designed to feel natural, focusing on quality-of-life improvements, mechanical refinements, and carefully integrated additions.
Several systems have been expanded or improved, including traversal, interaction, and progression flow.
These changes aim to make the game more expressive and consistent without turning it into chaos.
Before playing, it is recommended to review and adjust keybinds to match your setup. And just start the game, even if you are lagging while in main menu. It will normalize anyway.
The pack is otherwise close to plug-and-play and can be played blind if preferred.
Some cosmetic content and light surprises are included.
These are balanced and optional in nature, and are not intended to disrupt normal gameplay.
The goal of this pack is a refined default experience, one that feels rebuilt with intent rather than overloaded.
Another modpack may be released in the future that adds experimental or chaotic gameplay.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
