Welcome — Glad You Stopped ByHey, I'm Zenologia. I build custom Minecraft plugins for Paper servers — clean, configurable, and built to last. Whether you've got a half-formed idea on a napkin or a detailed spec, I'll take it from concept to a working, production-ready plugin you can drop in and use.
Focused on doing fewer things and doing them right — not the cheapest, but probably the most thoughtful you'll work with at this price point.
What I Build- Custom Plugins from Scratch — gamemodes, minigames, economy systems, timers, leaderboards, custom items, GUIs, you name it
- Existing Plugin Modifications — bug fixes, feature additions, performance tuning on plugins you already run
- Version Migrations — bring legacy plugins up to modern Paper 26.x / Java 25
- Integrations — PlaceholderAPI expansions, LuckPerms hooks, Vault, MySQL/SQLite backends, Velocity-aware backend plugins
- Restart & Server Management — schedulers, restart systems, join restrictions, queue-friendly setups
- Performance Reviews — diagnose lag, profile hot paths, refactor blocking calls to async
The Stack I Specialize In- Platform: Paper (primary specialty) — including the latest 26.x releases on Java 25
- Legacy support: Paper 1.8+ / Java 5+ when you need it (This includes spigot / bukkit for older versions)
- Proxy: Velocity-aware backend plugins, modern forwarding (Velocity only - I have not worked on Bungeecord and don't intend to)
- Storage: YAML, SQLite, MySQL/MariaDB — async I/O, no main-thread blocking
- APIs: PlaceholderAPI (including writing custom expansions), LuckPerms, MiniMessage, Adventure
- Build: Maven or Gradle (Kotlin DSL), with proper
paper-plugin.ymlmanifests on modern builds
Why You'd Pick Me- Everything is configurable. All player-, admin-, and console-facing text lives in a
messages.yml. No hardcoded strings, no edits needed to translate or rebrand. Your server, your voice. - Real PlaceholderAPI support when it makes sense — not stapled on, properly registered expansions you can use in scoreboards, tab, holograms, anywhere.
- Config files that survive updates. Versioned configs with automatic backups before any rewrite. Your customizations don't get nuked when you update.
- Hot reload. Most of my plugins ship with
/<plugin> reloadso you're not restarting the server for tweaks. - Tested code where it matters. Critical parsers, schedulers, and reload flows ship with unit tests. Not test coverage theater — the stuff that breaks if you don't test it.
- Async by default. Database writes, file I/O, heavy computation — off the main thread. Your TPS stays where it should.
- Documentation comes with the plugin. README, config comments, command tables, permission tables, troubleshooting section. You don't have to guess.
- MiniMessage & legacy color support. Whatever format your team is comfortable with.
Sample of My WorkWant to see how I write code, lay out configs, and document a plugin? My public work is on GitHub — full source, full READMEs, real plugins running on real servers.

How It Works- Reach out — DM me here, hop in my Discord, or email through my site. Describe what you want in your own words; I'll ask follow-up questions to fill in the gaps.
- Scoping doc & quote — for anything non-trivial I'll send back a short scoping document that nails down commands, permissions, configs, edge cases, and dependencies, plus a fixed quote and a rough timeline. We adjust until it matches what you actually need.
- Deposit & build — 50% up front, the rest on delivery. I keep you in the loop with progress notes; you don't go dark for two weeks wondering what's happening.
- Test & deliver — you get the JAR, README, and a quick handover walking you through the config.
- Post-delivery support — bug fixes from the original scope are free, within 30 days of final delivery. Feature additions, and bug fixes outside of 30 days are subject to a separate quote.
PricingRates are affordable and quote-based — I price per project, not per hour, so you know the number before I start. Small utilities, complex gamemodes, ongoing partnerships — different scopes, different prices, no surprises.
DM with a description of what you need and I'll get you a quote within 24 hours.
