A quick tour of what TNTGamesCore is and how a round plays out.

TNTGamesCore bundles three TNT minigames into one plugin. Players open a compass selector, pick a game and an arena, and play. When a game ends the arena regenerates itself, so the next round starts on a fresh map.

The three games

Game Goal How you lose
TNT Run Be the last player standing The floor breaks under you and you fall
TNT Tag Do not hold the TNT when the timer ends You are the tagger when the round timer hits zero
Bow Spleef Be the last player standing You get shot off the floor and fall

How a game runs

  1. A player joins an arena through the game selector or with /tt join.
  2. Once the arena has enough players, a countdown starts.
  3. The game begins. Players are eliminated until a winner is left or the timer ends.
  4. The winner is announced, stats are saved, and everyone returns to the lobby.
  5. The arena regenerates so the next round is clean.

Players returning to the lobby after a round ends

Quick facts

Server software Spigot or Paper
Minecraft version 1.16.5
Java 8 or newer
Hard dependencies None
Optional soft-depend PlaceholderAPI
Base command /tt (aliases /tntgames, /tntgame)

Note

The plugin runs on plain Spigot. It uses only the Spigot API, so Paper works too as a drop-in.
