DropperWars

Overview

DropperWars is a Minecraft minigame plugin developed for SparkBlock. Players compete in several rounds of dropper maps, aiming to land on the safety block to earn points before time runs out. After each round, players are teleported to a new map, and the process repeats. The player with the most points at the end wins.
