DOOM SG
by Lingxi114
DOOM SG adds Doom Eternal's shoulder-mounted Shoulder Cannon to Minecraft, with a Blood Punch that drops Life Shards for healing.
What it does
The Shoulder Cannon is an equipment item that occupies a bauble slot and gives the player three slots with their own trigger key. Each slot can hold one of up to five supported ammo types.
Blood Punch is a melee move that marks mobs it kills, and only those mobs drop Life Shards. A shard restores 20% of maximum health and is the main recovery method in the mod. Entities that are completely immobilized gain a Vulnerability debuff and take 25% more damage per level. The Crucible Sword is also included as a weapon.
DOOM SG depends on Curios API, so that mod must be installed alongside it. The mod is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files target 1.20.1 only, and the latest Forge build, published on 2026-06-16 to the beta channel, is the UI update release.
