Chunky-Challenge

⚔ Chunk Challenge A Minecraft 1.21.11 Fabric mod that turns every new chunk you walk into into a mini arena!

"Every chunk is a challenge. Kill the mobs. Survive the timer."

🎮 How it works Run /challenge start and the challenge begins instantly in your current chunk. Every time you enter a new chunk, a world border closes in around that exact 16×16 chunk — you're trapped until you defeat the mobs. Random mobs spawn — by default from ALL mobs in the game: zombies, creepers, witches, skeletons… but also pigs, cows, sheep, chickens and every other mob! All of them get the Glowing effect, so you always see them through walls. The border stays closed until every mob is killed. Then it opens — and the next chunk brings the next arena. A permanently visible HUD timer (top center) shows your run time, the current arena level and how many mobs are still alive. Teleporting mobs (e.g. Endermen) are automatically pulled back into the arena, so you never get stuck with a closed border. Died? The current arena resets so you can keep playing. /challenge stop ends the challenge and opens the world again. ⚙️ Commands start, stop and config require operator permission level 2. /challenge status works for everyone.

You can edit the block palette for solidchunks there:

Put Fabric API (0.141.6+1.21.11) into your mods folder. Put chunkchallenge-1.0.0.jar into your mods folder. Launch the game, join a world and run /challenge start. ⚠️ Notes solidchunks permanently replaces the terrain of every challenge chunk with the random block — back up your world if you care about it! In pure water biomes (open ocean) the arena can't find a dry spawn point and dissolves immediately — just keep walking to the next chunk. The world border is a global world property, so the mod is designed for singleplayer or a small group playing the same arena.
