The Towers
by NucleoidMC
The Towers is a team minigame for Fabric and Quilt servers, in which teams score points by getting players into the enemy's base pool.
What it does
Teams compete to score the most points. A player scores by entering the pool inside the enemy's base, and the match is decided by the total each team collects. The minigame follows the original game's classic map and is built on the Plasmid minigame framework, so Plasmid has to be installed alongside it.
The mod is installed on the server, which hosts the matches; players join without installing it. Fabric API is also required. Once the server is running, a game is started from the list of available game modes, where The Towers appears among the other minigames. Files exist for Fabric and Quilt for 1.19.4 – 1.20.1, with v2.1.3 for 1.20.1 as the latest release, dated 2023-08-22.

How it compares
Race To Spawn Mod is a Fabric server-side mod for 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license and is not open source; it is server required with the client optional. Realms Minigame Search is a Fabric client-side only mod for 1.19 – 1.20.5 under the MIT License and is open source. The Towers instead runs on the server alone, while those alternatives do not.
