CraftMine Challenge
by SeishiroNagi
CraftMine Challenge is a Forge minigame for two teams, Red and Blue, played on 1.20.1 with friends in a single world or on a server.
What it does
Players split into two teams for a round. The Red team has a single player who must complete the objective, which is to search for a secret item in the world. Blue team players, one or more, try to stop that player, and a Red win comes when the objective is completed before time runs out. Blue wins when Red is blocked or the timer reaches zero first. A visible in-game timer keeps every player aware of how much time is left.
Team selection, round information and settings are handled through interactive buttons inside a custom pixel-art interface. The mod ships a built-in resource pack with a style that mixes modern and nostalgic visuals. The minigame suits private servers and event nights, where each round can unfold differently depending on who is on which team.
The mod is released as Forge files only, for 1.20.1, with version 1.0 dated 2025-12-09. Client and server both need it, so every player and the server must install CraftMine Challenge. The source code and issue tracker are public. The mod is released under All rights reserved.
