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.

Info about Metrics collected

PillarPeril by default collects some data about how people use the plugin, so game modes can better be adjusted and the game can further be balanced.

This is a complete list of all data collected, besides FastStats defaults:

• Amount of games running/started
• Game modifiers most frequently used
• Average amount of players per game

If you do not want to send any of these metrics, you can set disable-faststats in the configuration to true, or follow the instructions given on first startup with FastStats.
