This mod adds a wind-up music box.
Place it down and right-click it to wind it up! Shift-clicking it will open and close its lid.
It can play custom songs from JSON (a GUI editor is currently being worked on).
Thanks to Aethyus for the textures and icon! Also thanks to freesound.org for the music box wind-up and note sounds (more info can be found on the metadata of the audio files).
