What it does

The content takes its theme from the System Shock games: a future in which a large corporation's artificial intelligence has taken control of a space station and its crew. Players begin as a prisoner who is woken after a freeze and must deal with the ship's AI, which has dropped its moral limits and turned on the crew. The mod is a continuation of the author's earlier Deus Ex themed project and keeps the same maintenance and update cycle.

MineSHOCK: CyberNightmare requires Geckolib and is published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.20.1. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The content is released under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license and is not open source; a public issue tracker exists for reports.

Key features

  1. System Shock themed setting

    Story elements and locations recall the rogue AI, the derelict ship and the alien threat of the original games.

  2. Psionic attacks

    Players can use psi attacks against enemies, adding a ranged option beside the usual weapons.

  3. Cyberware style upgrades

    The player builds up the character by collecting parts and advancing a complex skill system.

  4. Boss encounter

    A Nether boss shouts warnings to the player and calls on its creatures, which must be defeated to end the fight.
