MicroMiners (Boss Stage)

Description
In this custom boss stage, you are transported to the familiar voxel world of Minecraft - your objective is to use your Pickaxe to break the blocks around you (yes, you really can break nearly everything!) and excavate rare ores scattered throughout the cave network which you find yourself stuck in. The rarer the ore, the more valuable it is - coal is more commonplace but won't yield nearly as many points as those shiny diamonds will!

But before you can mine those rare ores, you should upgrade your Wooden Pickaxe first - you won't be able to break much with that flimsy thing. Gather resources such as Stone and Iron and bring them to a crafting table to get yourself a better Pickaxe. It will cost you the points you received from mining those resources, but the increased mining speed and access to the more valuable ores is worth it. You could even try going for the powerful Diamond Pickaxe!

And what's more:
  • The locations of the ores vary between rounds, so you're like to find them in new places every time you play.
  • As you make your way through the cave, you might come across chests containing special potions that briefly double your mining speed.
  • Watch out for deadly lava, especially if you dig straight down! Or use it against your friends by pushing them into it...

How to host
  1. Make sure you own the MicroWorks Party Pass.
  2. From the "Host Game" menu, tick "Enable Mutators".
  3. In the new "Mutators" window that just appeared to the right, tick "Enable Scripting".
  4. Now find "MicroMiners" under the "Custom Games" section and make sure it is ticked.
  5. You can now open a lobby or start a game - the boss will be added to the pool of selectable boss stages.

Only the host needs to own the Party Pass. The boss stage supports all gamemodes and is also fully playable in singleplayer.

Credits
A heartfelt thanks goes out to:
  • Naturally, the talented people at Mojang Studios for making Minecraft and all its assets!
  • C418 for the music that plays during the boss - "Battlemode 1", an unreleased soundtrack from Minecraft's legacy console editions.
  • The contributors and maintainers of the jmc2obj[github.com] project for making the workflow of porting the map from Minecraft that much easier.
  • And of course, noam 2000 & prefetcher - a.k.a. Agiriko Digital, the developers of MicroWorks - for their incredible efforts on the scripting framework which powers this mod. <3
  • ...And an additional thanks goes out to them for translating the mod, respectively, into Hebrew and Polish.

@MDRY There is no special endgame condition. Similar to Circuitfreezer or Dodgeball, the boss will only end on its own once time runs out.
Thanks for playing! :squirtyay:

Its neat and polish. The only thing I did not get was how to end the game before the time runs out? Is there a max score point level if reached the game will end?

Otherwise, Great workshop!

The mod has finally been updated! Most importantly, Pointmatch and Survival are now properly supported. The update also brings several QoL additions, rebalancings and bugfixes. Check out the changelog to view all the details.

Thank you for playing this mod!
