TheLab: ItemChaos
Hey-ya Minecrafters,
After a long break, TheLab is finally opening its doors again – our creative testing ground for crazy and innovative game ideas is back! For the big comeback, we’re kicking things off with a brand-new mode: ItemChaos. The name says it all – hold on tight, because things in the lab are about to get chaotic, unpredictable, and guaranteed fun!
What is TheLab?
TheLab is the experimental playground on GommeHD.net where fresh and crazy ideas first see the light of day. Instead of waiting a long time for a finished mode, you can try out brand-new concepts right away and give us your feedback directly. Whether it’s action-packed mini-games, chaotic PvP ideas, or completely new gameplay mechanics – in the lab, anything is possible.
What makes it special: TheLab is never final. Game modes can change from round to round, be adjusted, or even completely reinvented. Your feedback determines which ideas from the lab will later be released as a standalone mode. Those who play here are right at the forefront when the next big GommeHD highlights are created – and at the same time experience plenty of surprising, unpredictable, and fun moments.
What’s the concept behind ItemChaos?
With TheLab’s first game mode, ItemChaos, we present you with an exciting mix of epic fights, varied tactics, and guaranteed fun.
At the start of each round, you spawn on your own platform. All platforms are arranged in a circle and separated by gaps.
During the game, you will receive completely random items at regular intervals in your inventory. These can be useful building blocks, fishing rods to reel in other players, but also banners or music discs.
To keep the adrenaline pumping, you can also, with a bit of luck, receive spawn eggs for all kinds of animals – from a cow, to a snowman, all the way to a ghast.
Was that all?
No! We’ve added “Random Events.” You might remember this from when you used to molecraft each other in the past. When an event is triggered, an audio signal plays and a chat message appears. Some events take effect immediately upon being triggered, while others influence the gameplay over a limited period of time. This ensures excitement and variety even across many consecutive rounds.
To give you an idea of what to expect, here’s a selection of exciting events:
| Levelup | Each player receives 4 extra absorption hearts for 20 seconds |
| Monsterparty | Each player receives a random spawn egg |
| I Believe I Can Fly | Each player receives a Levitation I effect for 3 seconds |
| Itemboost | Item distribution is twice as fast for 15 seconds |
| Zwerg | All players are shrunk to 0.75 size for 10 seconds |
| Schwerelos | The gravity of all players is set to 0.02 for 10 seconds, and they are given the Jump Boost effect. |
Of course, those weren’t all the events – stay tuned to see what else might happen. ;)
What do the maps look like?
We’ve spared no effort to bring you a variety of maps right at release. Whether you like slimes, are a fan of sausages, or want to summon the Warden – all that and much more is possible with our large rotation of maps.
We’d like to thank every single person who built these fantastic maps. Got a favorite map? Then, with your Forcemap Tokens, you can choose the map in this mode as well! As a Supremium player, you have ten tokens per day at your disposal.
Otherwise, we wish you lots of fun trying out the new game mode and look forward to continuing to work on TheLab with you. Feel free to share your feedback and ideas with us on our forum or on Discord!
Kind regards,
Your GommeHD.net Team
