EventHorizon
EventHorizon is an interactive game mode plugin, originally developed for the KSU Esports Minecraft server, aimed at boosting replayability and player engagement. It introduces random, server-wide events, categorized as positive, negative, or neutral, that challenge players to adapt and survive in both solo and team-based gameplay. These unpredictable occurrences create a dynamic and thrilling environment. EventHorizon can run as a standalone game mode or integrate seamlessly with other game mode plugins, such as survival games, speedruns, TaskCrafters, etc.
