MicroSurvival
by DorcupiGames
MicroSurvival is a datapack in which random MicroGames interrupt play, and each round's results feed into the currency and shop that follow.
What it does
Players who win a MicroGame earn MicroCoins and MicroGold, which they spend in the MicroShop on items and on extra time between challenges. Spending on time can lengthen the gap before the next microgame, and some purchases can stop the games entirely. Failing a MicroGame can be deadly, so the reward of a win is weighed against the risk of the next challenge.
The datapack's random events include WarioWare-style microgames that interrupt play, Lucky Block drops, and a delay mechanic that makes the time between microgames longer or shorter. Some events can also stop microgames from happening again, and the mix of chance and purchased advantages decides how a session plays out. The datapack is installed on the server, while the client needs nothing extra.
