Save Minecraft (Save The Game)
by RoCris
Save Minecraft is a Forge adventure mod that gives players a reason to keep playing by awarding five gems for completing set tasks across the world.
What it does
Players earn gems for tasks such as placing 5,000 blocks, breaking 2,000 blocks with one item 1,000 times, taming a wolf, clearing a village raid or defeating the Ender Dragon. Each gem is awarded once per world and is kept after death, and a Save Game Structure accepts gems in its slots.
Five gems are Gem Blocks, Gem Creativity, Gem Friendship, Gem Peace and Gem Survival. Depositing all of them combines into a Godly Power item, which uses a right-click to grant several positive potion effects, including invincibility and flight, and a second right-click removes them. The Godly Power item can only generate one part of the world.
The mod is published for Forge 1.20.1 as a client and server mod, so both the server and every player need it. The license is All rights reserved, so the code is not open source. The latest Forge file is 1.0.0, dated 2024-01-03, which is also the first publication and last update date.

Use cases
Progress for long play
Players who want goals beyond exploration can work toward the five gems across a single world.
Multiplayer servers
Server owners can use the gems and structure to add shared objectives on a Forge 1.20.1 server.
Who it’s for: The mod suits players who want task-based goals in Forge 1.20.1 survival worlds, and server owners who want an optional progression layer for their players.
How it compares
The Gems Project is also open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and covers 1.20 – 1.20.1, while Save Minecraft is not open source and supports only 1.20.1. Class Gem: Berserker is a client and server Forge mod for 1.20.1 under All rights reserved, which makes it closer to this mod in both license and version range.
