Don't Do It

A multiplayer party minigame

You have one job: don't do the thing. The problem is, you don't know what the thing is.

? What is Don't Do It?

Don't Do It is a team-based party minigame inspired by the classic "Don't Do It Challenge". Players are divided into teams and each team is secretly assigned a criteria entry — a forbidden action. If anyone on your team accidentally does that action... your team loses a life.

The catch? You don't know your own criteria entry. You have to figure it out by observing what your opponents indicate you to do — or by cleverly tricking opponents into doing their forbidden action!

Last team standing is the final winner.

✨ Features

• Team-based gameplay — 2 or more teams, each with its own life
• Hidden criteria system — each team gets a secret forbidden action they must avoid
• 25+ built-in criteria types — covering almost every player action in Minecraft
• Custom criteria — players can write their own criteria to spice things up
• Life & elimination system — teams are eliminated at 0 lives, but can be revived by commands if needed
• Cross-team guess mechanic — players try to guess their own criteria entry via voice/text; other teams judge via command: correct → reward lives, wrong → lose lives
• Settings GUI — game area size, max life count, diamond behavior, and more in game
• Full admin command suite — full control over criteria, lives, and game state
• Bilingual support — Simplified Chinese (简体中文) and English out of the box
• Auto-generated configs — drop in the JAR, configs generate automatically
• Wildcard & tag support — use *, #tags, comma lists, and range notation (3..) in criteria config

? Criteria Types (What You Might Have to Avoid)

?️ How to Play

1. Install the plugin on your Paper server and invite your friends to play together
2. Players choose a team by right-clicking colored wool in their hand (configurable)
3. At least 2 teams are required
4. The server operator receives a Game Start Item — use it to begin
5. Each team gets a secret criteria entry — DON'T DO IT!
6. When a team triggers their criteria, they lose a life
7. Reach 0 lives = eliminated. Last team alive wins!
8. Try to guess your own team's criteria entry out loud (voice chat or text)! Other teams then judge with /criteria guess <player> <true|false> — if you guessed right, your team gains lives; if wrong, your team loses lives
9. Play with custom criteria! If a team did the thing specified by its custom criteria entry, trigger it by clicking the hints in chat box

? Commands

All commands are under /criteria.

# Tags
block: "#leaves"     # any leaves block

# Multiple values (any match triggers)
item: "diamond,emerald,iron_ingot"

# Ranges
count: "3.."         # 3 or more
count: "5..6"        # between 5 and 6 inclusive

# Reversed logic
reversed: true       # triggers when you DON'T do the action
# For the actual reversed logic, please refer to the comments

? Localization

Currently supports Simplified Chinese (简体中文) and English.

To add your own language: copy criteria.yml and game_settings.yml into plugins/DontDoIt/, translate the display strings, and restart the server.
