Project DETERMINATION
by GaMaStudios
Project DETERMINATION is a Forge magic mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 that centers on extracting human SOULs with blueprints and injecting them into a vessel.
What it does
Players use blueprints to extract human SOULs, then inject a SOUL into a vessel to gain the power the mod calls DETERMINATION. The story text in the author notes frames the power as something that lets a person keep living and change fate, and it describes how ordinary beings can gain power of their own. Creatures that result from this process are called AMALGAMATES in the author text.
The mod requires Geckolib, which must be installed alongside it on Forge. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Project DETERMINATION is published only for Forge, with a single file for 1.20.1, version 1.0.0, dated 2026-01-27. The code is All rights reserved and the mod is not open source.

How it compares
Determination (Undertale/Glitchtale) is also a Forge mod for 1.20.1 with a client and server environment, under All rights reserved and not open source, so the two share loader, version and environment. Underforge is likewise Forge 1.20.1, client and server, and All rights reserved, but it is a different project. UnderCraft is Forge 1.20.1 and client-side only, released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, so players can join servers without installing it.

What the author says
Record start THIS NEXT EXPERIMENT SEEMS VERY VERY INTERESTING... WHAT DO YOU THINK? Record end Record start I've done it. Using the blueprints, I've extracted it from the human SOULs. I believe this is what gives their SOULs the strength to persist after death. The will to keep living... The resolve to change fate…
