Gameoverse Minecraft Server

A "kitchen sink" modded server focused on multiplayer survival. Play however you like: combat, magic, classes, exploration, or just building and decorating. There's no real "end" or set of goals, just a forever world for doing whatever you want, for however long you want.

Fabric, Minecraft 26.1.2 Online 24/7 Hosted by Foxomy

Getting Started

1

Install the modpack

Install Prism Launcher and link your Minecraft account in the app. Click Add Instance in the top-left, then the Import tab, and paste in our Modpack link. Prism installs Minecraft and every required mod automatically. When it's done, click Launch.

2

Connect to the server

  • Launch the game and select Multiplayer.
  • Click the Gameoverse server (our address is always mc.gameoverse.com).
  • Click Join Server. First time joining, the modpack will fully update before you connect.

About the "Unverified JAR Files" warning

When you connect for the first time, AutoModpack shows a screen like this, warning that some files don't match a public listing on Modrinth or CurseForge. This is expected:

AutoModpack's unverified JAR files warning screen

Most of them (~40) are internal libraries bundled inside LuckPerms, our permissions plugin, things like Adventure, ByteBuddy, and Caffeine. These ship packed inside LuckPerms itself, so they were never separately listed on Modrinth or CurseForge to begin with. LuckPerms's own source is fully public: github.com/LuckPerms/LuckPerms.

The rest are mods we've custom-built, forked, or modified ourselves, plus a few third-party files whose exact build isn't listed. Every one we're legally able to publish has its full source public, linked below.

Update the modpack

The server updates automatically. Every time you connect, mods sync with the server, so just wait for the update, launch, and you're ready to play.

  • Once connected, run /discordverify to link your Discord account and unlock full privileges. Unverified players can't interact with the world. A friend who's already verified can run /vouch (player) to let you skip verification.
  • We will never ask for your email or any account information. Anyone who does is a scammer, report them immediately.

Client-side mods are welcome, cheats aren't. Any mod that gives you an unfair advantage over other players will get you banned. Play fair and respect other players.

What's Different

Our server is modded and adds plenty of new features, but most things still play just like normal Minecraft. Everything's been changed in an intuitive way, so new and experienced players shouldn't feel overwhelmed at the start.

Full controller support Plug in and play: the default layout puts your spells on the shoulder buttons, and an on-screen guide shows what each button does. Change anything under Options » Controls » Controller Settings.
Bridging for everyone A beloved Bedrock-only feature, backported for all players here.
Land claims Claim the land around your builds. Nobody can interact with your area unless you allow it, and mobs can't grief it either. Structures stay open to everyone: ruins, temples and towers can't be claimed, and mineshafts and other underground structures stay explorable beneath other players' land. Land Deeds from Locked Chests let you claim more.
Real-world calendar and sky Seasons follow the real date (New York time) and affect weather, crops, and daylight length year-round. The moon matches the real one, phase, position and eclipses included.
No villagers, no villages, no wandering traders They're removed entirely.
Magic, classes, and gear Tons of spells, skills, weapons, and armor to find and craft, plus tougher enemies and better loot the deeper you explore.
Building and decorating Lots of new blocks and items to build and decorate with.
Custom skins Supported for every player, loadable from any account or URL.
Opt-in PvP Only players who've activated PvP mode can attack, or be attacked by, other players.
Mobs that scale with you Every hostile mob has a level. They get tougher the farther you travel from spawn, the higher you climb or deeper you dig, and the more hearts nearby players carry. Each World Tier you unlock adds more levels on top. Peaceful mobs never get a level.
Gear follows the land Chests and mobs in low-level areas only carry basic gear. Iron turns up from level 6, diamond from 15, and netherite from 30, so better loot means heading somewhere tougher.
Mana for spells Spells draw from a mana bar that refills on its own, so you can cast from your very first wand. Runes cover the cost when you run dry, and gems, gear and skills grow your mana.
Waystones Waystones are scattered across the world for fast travel. They can't be built or broken, and every trip costs experience levels, more for longer and cross-dimension jumps. There's one just south of spawn.
Elytra flight Regular Firework Rockets won't boost you mid-flight. Craft Dragon's Breath Fireworks instead, 8 from each bottle of Dragon's Breath.
Dungeon spawners, per player Clearing a spawner only switches it off for you and anyone nearby, and it wakes up again two in-game days later.
Better horse travel Horses handle more smoothly, can be summoned with a Copper Horn, and can wear craftable, enchantable horseshoes for extra speed and jump height.
Plays in Japanese too Switch Minecraft's language to 日本語 and the in-game guide, the tutorial, the Skill Forest and the server's own items and messages show in Japanese. Some modded items still show their English names. Typing Japanese, Chinese or Korean in chat works with your system's input method.
Regular updates New content on a regular basis, synced to your client automatically.

FAQ

What am I supposed to do?

Literally whatever you want. This is a "Forever World" with no goals other than what you set for yourself, with plenty of content for explorers and builders alike. Once you spawn in (and you're verified), you get a free house blueprint that instantly builds a starting house wherever you want. Use the Claim menu (apostrophe key) to claim the land you're building on, so mobs and other players can't mess with it unless you allow it.

Why is my health so low?

Everyone starts with 6 hearts, half of vanilla's usual 10. You grow that by finding and eating Heart Crystals, either crafted (8 Diamonds around a Nether Star) or found as a rare drop from almost anything you do: kills, chests, mining, even harvesting a fully grown crop. Each one is worth a permanent heart, with no upper limit.

Dying costs you a heart, down to a floor of 3, but never your items. Death here is never a loot-loss risk, only a health one. The tradeoff: the more hearts you carry, the tougher nearby enemies get and the better your odds at rare loot, so pushing your heart count higher is a real risk-and-reward choice, not just a grind. Staying near the starting 6 keeps the world gentle, if that's more your speed. Enemies also get tougher the farther you travel from spawn and the higher you climb or deeper you dig, so the land around spawn stays the easiest place to be.

Where's the stamina bar, and how does healing work?

There isn't one, and there's no hunger bar either. Eating heals you directly instead of filling a meter: better food heals more and faster, and bigger meals take longer to eat, so keep a light snack handy for mid-fight healing. Every food also gives a short effect from its ingredients (steak gives Strength, fish Dolphin's Grace, mushrooms faster mana), and the more cooking goes into a dish, the longer it lasts and the more effects it carries. Keep three or more food effects going at once and you're Well Fed, which makes healing stronger. Passive natural regeneration is off. Besides food, the only everyday healing is a lit campfire: stand near one for the Cozy effect, which slowly restores health. Beds still let you skip the night like vanilla but don't heal you on their own; sleep with the Cozy effect from a nearby campfire, though, and you wake up at full health.

Why won't my controller work in some menus?

Press Select (or your controller's equivalent) to activate "Mouse Mode" for that menu. Some menus, like lockpicking, only work in Mouse Mode.

Can I play in Japanese, or type in Japanese, Chinese or Korean?

Yes. Pick 日本語 under Options » Language for Japanese menus, guide and tutorial. To type in another language, switch to your system's input method in chat, on signs or in books, like in any other app. It switches off by itself while you play, and starting a message with / switches to English for the command. On Linux the game finds Fcitx or IBus on its own. If it still won't switch on, add the environment variable XMODIFIERS with the value @im=fcitx or @im=ibus under Edit Instance » Settings » Environment variables in Prism Launcher, then restart the game.

Why are some models or textures broken?

The resource packs probably didn't load properly. Go to Options » Resource Packs and hold T to reload the defaults. They'll refresh once you close the menu.

Is it safe to sign in with my Microsoft account?

Yes. Your Microsoft login never touches our server, only Microsoft's own servers ever see it. When you connect, all we get is your Minecraft username, a permanent ID number tied to your account, and your IP address, the same basic info any online multiplayer server gets. We never see your email, password, or any other Microsoft account detail, and we'll never ask for one. Requiring a real Microsoft account is actually there to protect you, it's what stops someone else from joining under your username. See our Privacy Policy for the full details.

Is this server pay-to-win?

No. There's no paid content at all, and there never will be. We accept donations to help with server costs, but donors don't receive any gameplay benefit.

Are there any server events?

Not right now, though more are planned. We're still figuring out the right way to implement them.

Is there a full list of the mods used in the modpack?

Yes. The complete list, with download links, is always in our MODLIST.md.

Can I play this modpack in single-player mode?

Yes, as a sandbox. Once the modpack finishes updating the first time, you can start a single-player world with every mod you see on the server, and it keeps auto-updating whenever you launch. A single-player world isn't Gameoverse itself, though: the server's own rules and progression (the Skill Forest, Heart Crystals, crafting gates, loot and difficulty tuning, and its custom recipes) only exist on the server, so single-player plays differently. You can also host a local game for friends with "Open to LAN" from the pause menu, sharing the link posted in chat as a Multiplayer server address. You're free to add extra mods of your own through Prism Launcher, but mods from the modpack itself can't be disabled or removed.

Can I get a backup of the world?

The entire server is backed up daily, and we'll share world backups with any verified player on request.

Can I get unbanned?

No.

Credits

Gameoverse runs on hundreds of mods by their own authors. Every one of them is in the mod list, and the ones we changed are linked to their original source in the file list above. On top of those, thanks to:

Art and content we use

  • dedou3d, MystiCrates & keys animated: the Locked Chest models and keys (licensed for Gameoverse).
  • WASD Build Team, the Moar packs: the special weapons and tools found in Locked Chests.
  • Quintino Pixels: the Skill Forest icons, from Skill Icons 2.0, Free Pixel Art Skill Icons and Crafting Icons.
  • kleiwright, Matcha Flavoured: the Heart Crystal texture, used under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0.
  • Clefal, Loot Beams: Refork: the loot beam textures and drop sound (CC0).
  • nicochart, Aerial Hell: the first dimension past the End, used under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0. We changed its gear stats to fit our progression, renamed its Obsidian to Nightglass, and link its portals to the End.
  • Soybean_56 (YouTube): the Minecraft Infinite soundtrack, our 29 Soybean_56 music discs and the night, Nether, End and Aerial Hell background tracks, released under Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY). We turned the discs to mono so they fade with distance like vanilla discs.
  • Merlin1809, Eclipse, and javiergcim, MakeUp: Ultra Fast: the shader packs we ship, with small changes of ours so the moon and stars match the real sky.

Ideas we borrowed

  • Minecraft Infinite by Yoniko and team: keys from bosses and Locked Chests, and needing a copper pickaxe before you can mine iron.
  • Better Than Adventure and Raspberry Flavoured: gear materials with strengths of their own instead of a straight upgrade path, and needing machinery (pressed Iron Sheets) before you can make iron tools.
  • Matcha Flavoured: Heart Crystals, and food effects that come from ingredients and last longer the more a dish is cooked.
  • RPGMana by cleannrooster: casting spells with mana instead of runes.
  • Weather Watch: seasons that follow the real calendar.
