Minecraft Speedrunner VS Assassin" and "
Beating Minecraft, But My Friend Tries To Stop Me...", but this version was written from scratch by me.

What the plugin does:
Assassin mode:
Whenever the target is looking directly at the assassin, the assassin cannot move, place or dig blocks, or hit the target. This looking effect is blocked by blocks (except blocks you can walk through). For the assassin to win, all they have to do is punch the target once, while the target tries to win by causing the death of the ender dragon, thus completing Minecraft.
The assassin receives a compass that points to the target when clicked and they are both in the overworld, this helps them sneak up on the target, or find them if they've gone far away.
Manhunt mode:
The assassin receives a compass that points to the target when clicked and they are both in the overworld, this helps them sneak up on the target, or find them if they've gone far away.
The hunter can respawn any amount of times they require. For the hunter to win, all they have to do is kill target once, while the target tries to win by causing the ender dragon to die, thus completing Minecraft.
