Pillar Peril

by MarcPG · on Modrinth

Open-Source & customizable "Pillars of Fortune"-like game. Spawn on bedrock pillars, get random items, and win!

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

Mod loader

Minecraft version

⬇ Download for 1.20.6–26.1.2 · Paper⬇ Download for 1.20.2–1.20.5 · Paper⬇ Download for 1.20.6–26.1.2 · Purpur⬇ Download for 1.20.2–1.20.5 · Purpur
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Pillar Peril

Pillar Peril in an open-source Minecraft minigame where players spawn on bedrock pillars, get random items every few seconds, and fight to be the last one standing.

Highly configurable modes and lightweight performance make it perfect for small and medium servers.

Special about this Version

The special part about this plugin is the high customizability and a bunch of different modes!
Here are the different modes that are available, with each of them being fully customizable:

Name Cooldown Time Pillars Description
Blocky 10s 4m Circular Starts with a weapon; only blocks are given.
Chaos 3s 8m Random No filters, randomized pillars, fast item cooldown.
Classic 5s 5m Circular Classic rules, inspired by CubeCraft.
Item-Only 10s 10m Circular Only items (no blocks): long & tough.
Item-Shuffle 10s 5m Circular Items replaced every 10s (9 new items).
Original 5s 5m Circular Original gameplay as seen in early videos.
Player-Shuffle 10s 5m Circular All players randomly swapped every 10s.

Inspiration

This plugin is inspired by pillar-style minigames featured by creators like CheapPickle and large servers such as CubeCraft. This plugin is independent, open-source, and not affiliated with those projects.

Configuration

Configuration

See Commands section above for the /pp-config command to modify the configuration in-game.

The configuration is designed to be simple and ships with comments, which explain themselves.

By default, the queue is disabled, so it needs to manually be enabled.
There are two queue modes: command (players use /queue) and auto (players are automatically queued).

Info about Metrics collected
