Challenge library

Challenge Library

Challenge Library is a modular challenge mod for Fabric that adds fast, high-pressure gameplay for singleplayer and multiplayer worlds.

Create custom challenge runs in seconds, combine compatible challenges, switch to random challenge rotations, generate challenge maps, and manage everything in-game.

Note:

This is not a library or API mod.

It is a standalone Minecraft mod that directly adds new in-game challenges and does not require any additional dependencies beyond the standard mod loader.
