SocialCredit: I built a Social Credit government system for Minecraft servers (with propaganda, black markets, and suspicion mechanics)

Hi everyone!

I’ve been working on a Minecraft plugin called SocialCredit, inspired by the tongue-in-cheek political humour of games like Tropico.

The idea was to create something a bit different from the usual economy or reputation plugins — more of a satirical government simulation that server owners can build themes around.

Core features

• Social Credit system

Players earn or lose reputation based on actions and server behaviour.

• State Resource Department

Players can donate items to the “state” and receive State Credits in return.

• Heat / suspicion system

Illegal activity raises suspicion which can trigger inspections or events.

• Public broadcasts and propaganda messages

The server can announce suspicious activity or government notices.

Addon ecosystem

The core plugin is designed to stay fairly lightweight, while additional systems are added through addons.

Current addons:

SocialCredit: BlackMarket

• Underground trading system • Illegal traders • Suspicion interaction with the heat system

I’m also currently building a communications/Discord integration system as another module.

Why I built it

Originally it started as a fun experiment because I loved the humour and political satire in Tropico. It turned into a small framework for servers that want a bit more roleplay or emergent gameplay.

I’d love feedback

If you run a server, I’d be curious:

• Would a system like this fit your server theme? • What kinds of mechanics would you add to a “government simulation” plugin?
